The man who wants to outlaw encryption
http://www.dailydot.com/politics/james-comey-no-tradeoff-between-liberty-and-security/
Unlike the gung ho mood post-9/11 America, which led to the passage of
the USA Patriot Act, industry and academic experts and even members of
Congress have lambasted Comey's efforts to outlaw strong encryption as
a vast overstep of government authority and grossly naive. Just last
week, for example, a congressional hearing on encryption got downright
hostile when Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) called Comey's proposal
"stupid."
