original interview in Le Devoir (Montreal) (in French):
Open or closed software doesn't make much difference, it's all about
data. An operator cannot 'open' data (like in letting everyone know
what the data and its derivatives are) without factoring itself out
of the business. On the other hand, there are (yet) no signs that
consumers will stop
As to the Apple case, haven't people always been able to write
messages in cypher or just whisper them without government having
any right to force someone else to decode or to listen in? Does
the fact that now enciphering is a commercial service change that
fundamentally?
