      I wish that spin were true, but Obama personally spoke out clearly against strong crypto: https://theintercept.com/2016/03/11/obama-wants-nonexistent-middle-ground-on-encryption-warns-against-fetishizing-our-phones/ …; & Apple = .net

          I would never intentionally conflate Apple with the Internet or the people on it, but the stance Cook took mattered in DC this year

          Fair to say. "Internet" is inelegant shorthand for the very broad coalition. Unfortunately, 140 character limit kills nuance.

          I agree, on both counts. To be fair, I used the Web the same way in 2012 after participating in SOPA debatehttp://radar.oreilly.com/2012/01/the-week-the-web-changed-washi.html …

          my sense is that opposition & testimony by the people who built the Internet also mattered http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/encryption-silicon-valley-white-house-washington_us_564f3839e4b0879a5b0a9182 …
