Police State

Headline implies since Apple has unlocked previous devices, it should unlock the terrorist's phone for the FBI, but you have to dive into the article to discover it's a different technical problem.

Snowden calls for Google to stand with Apple. Google does. Government won't let this stand.

NSA director blames success of Paris attacks on strong encryption.
Copyright police state treaty nearly finished.
"CETA contains provisions that would compel countries to implement Internet censorship through site blocking, anti-circumvention laws as seen in the US, and compel border security to seize digital storage devices (i.e. cell phones) at the border for the purpose of looking for copyright infringement."
Wonderful.
