FBI Director wants 'adult conversation' about backdooring encryption

Peeeeter

Sigh...

Does he really think that if he forces tech companies to provide a backdoor, criminals won't start encrypting messages themselves?

Encryption with a backdoor is useless. If the police can use it, anyone can use it.

It's worrying people that don't understand the matter have these decision making positions.
