Maybe before Snowden corps never thought govts would be in heavy conflict with the corp-customer relationship, essentially attacking one of its essential foundations... crypto, (others being features, price, usability, apps, brand, quality, etc). ie: Previously known govt activities were relagated to tax / structure / employment / trade / safety regulation etc which didn't directly impact users. Too bad corps were just starting to recognize advertise and capitilize on the crypto relationship, with market / user awareness results starting to develop. Which is why Apple must win and be given every possible support from everyone in doing so... to reject clipper v2 forever.
