A few years back people considered "H.R.4681 - Intelligence Authorization Act" to be a victory in terms of limiting how long government can keep information of U.S. citizens "not wittingly"[1] captured by intelligence agencies in their hoovering activities. I thought the coincidence of the specific provisions in that law with the drive towards making sure all communications on the web is encrypted was "interesting".[2]
