I'm not far left. I broadly support law enforcement. I understand opposition to Silk Road and I support prosecution. I even support Snowden going to trial. But my reaction to this is "screw the FBI if that's what they think." Unless Congress outlaws domestic use of encryption, I'm still going to have access to open source encryption and I'm still going to prefer companies which use encryption to maintain my privacy. So the FBI has a tough row to hoe here, if the people who would otherwise support it are alienated as I am
