Remember how the FBI wanted the 'key' to get into apple phones after that one terror attack?

This is why that is dumb.

Random post, but I think valuable and relevant to peoples interests here, if a little outside 'cool' and maybe a black art to some!

There's also the good chance that those back doors will be leaked or stolen. Then we have nightmare scenarios where people have taken these back doors and used them to create viruses to steal data or shut down systems. This is in addition to the fact, as was said in the video, governments change; the good and trustworthy government that you don't have any problem with having those powers now because you know that they will only use it for good may not be the same government in even the next election cycle and now innocent people get put on lists and hunted.
