FBI, Justice Dept. Take Encryption Concerns to Congress
http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2015/07/08/us/politics/ap-us-fbi-encryption.html
Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy, the panel's senior Democrat, expressed
wariness about facilitating law enforcement's access to encrypted
material, saying he wasn't sure how much that would help. "Strong
encryption would still be available from foreign providers," Leahy
said. "Some say that any competent Internet user would be able to
download strong encryption technology, or install an app allowing
encrypted communications -- regardless of restrictions on American
businesses."
