@Snowden @google "Don't be evil."

@BlairReeves @Snowden @jeremiahg You're basically repeating Comey's talking points for the past ~year...

@getwired Explain to me how letting all smartphones go dark to law enforcement is not insane in the modern world. @Snowden @jeremiahg

@BlairReeves @Snowden @jeremiahg Alas, cryptography is truly a double-edged sword. Pick your posture. Secure, or not.

@getwired red herring @Snowden @jeremiahg

@BlairReeves @Snowden @jeremiahg Except not really. If the FBI gets their way at this point, assuming Apple can do this, it becomes the way.

@getwired Drastic oversimplification though. Big difference between encryptable phones vs shipping by default.

@Snowden @arrdem @google On the contrary, they recently publicly sided with the FBI by "making lawful intercept easier" in Android.

@Viss @Snowden @arrdem @google They may be saying that publicly, but the commit logs from this morning show they're making it easier.

@ultimateloather @Snowden @arrdem @google show me a screenshot

@Viss @Snowden @arrdem @google This is what google is implementing: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11152784 … -- RCS. Designed with legal intercept in mind.

@ultimateloather @Snowden @arrdem @google http://jibe.google.com/  - this appears to be an ichat like application. Not a crypto backdoor.

@Viss @Snowden @arrdem @google which when it becomes the default phone/messaging app as intended, has the same effect for those comm types

@Snowden You are trying to prove a negative. @google @shanerichmond

@jeffjarvis @Snowden @google @shanerichmond What's wrong with that? Take a stand. Kein Antwort ist auch ein Antwort. Do you disagree Jeff?

@DJMinded He took a stand. @Snowden @google @shanerichmond
