I'm in complete agreement with you that this will provide much needed motivation for adoption of technical security. I have to wonder though, does technical literacy or computer science training really cause a person to respect basic civil liberties? The people who built the mass surveillance apparatus must be just as much a part of the technical community as anyone here.
