"Stewart is extremely smart, should not be underestimated, and HN comments in this thread calling him "incompetent" reflect badly on the person making the comment. He's likely the single most capable adversary the HN/EFF/ACLU/Cato/Mozilla/etc. axis faces over encryption (if he ends up playing that role)." That someone is smart does not mean that whatever he says is true. In fact some of the smartest people on earth use their intelligence to fool and mislead other people. It is not very smart on this man when he talks about blackberry: "look were blackberry is today". Blackberry in fact did help governments with their encryptions keys. In particular,people that worked for the NSA need to develop a habit of lying to everyone as a morning routine. We know that while the CIA and the NSA were crying loud about how encryption was making them "blind", they were in fact spying on more Americans and non Americans than ever.
