But the government will use this as yet another excuse to pass more cyber surveillance laws.
Also, with the FBI promoting an anti-encryption culture and the NSA promoting an anti-security culture in terms of what laws politicians should pass, it's only a matter of time before that culture spills into the government's own agencies, too.
For instance, politicians can be brainwashed so much by the NSA/FBI that encryption is some "dark sorcery that only terrorists and child pornographers use" to the point where they'll start voting against bills that aim to secure government's websites and so on.
