  1. Re:FBI director on Tim Cook: "Weakening Encryption Or Taking It Away Harms Good People" · · Score: 1

    Also, the US can't enforce "legally mandated backdoors" on every foreign made phone. It seems somewhat unrealistic to me to tell every visiting businessman or tourist that they can't bring a phone into the US.
