US top cop decries encryption, demands backdoors
- deciplex 12y agoYou can be too big to jail, unless you dare encrypt your mail? Fuck Eric Holder.
- bediger4000 12y agoWhy is anyone letting Holder get away with this kind of nonsense? The Snowden revelations show that the FBI (which does the NSA's USA dirty work for the most part) doesn't follow any plainly-worded rules, and may not follow any rules at all. Also, "pedophiles" and "terrorists" are the new boogey men, since "communists!" lost its inherent scariness. We know that someone made a tidy profit on CIA-led coups in South America in the 1950s (http://www.nber.org/papers/w16952.pdf http://www.nber.org/papers/w16952.pdf). Why wouldn't the even less upright members of the Deep State today hesitate to profit from dragnet surveillance now?
