There has been talk of a war on encryption. I wish to point out this alternative: Let's increase transparency instead. Require all data sent and received to be in a common well-documented format (XML.) Require the following be documented in the XML (1) The program sending it, (2) the program receiving it, (3) what it means, and (4) what it is used for. There should be a single place to go to see all data coming and going so the administrative user of the device can review all data coming and going. A lot less shenanigan's would happen online if every value sent and received had to be well documented with Because that a new Windows install sends and receives so much complicated garbage that that networking people can not understand what is going on, this would require rewriting everything. I'm willing to do it.
