On your smartphone today, on iphone, theres likely health information. Theres financial information. There are intimate conversations with your family, or your coworkers. Theres probably business secrets. And you should have the ability and the only wawa we knoww howto do that is to encrypt it. Why is that . Its because if theres a way to get in, then somebody will find a way in. There have been people that suggest that we should have a back door, but the reality is if you put a back door in, that back door is for everybody, for good guys and bad guys. The notion that we would market devices that would allow someone to place themselves beyond the law troubles me a lot. I am a big supporter of the rule of law, but as a cocotry, i dont know why we would want to put people beyond the law. That is, sell cars with trunks that couldnt ever be opened by law enfoement with a court order or sell an apartment that could never be entered, even by Law Enforcement. If the government lays a proper warrant on us today, then we will give the specific information that isis requested in the case of encrypted communication, we dont have it to give. And so, like your imessages are encrypted. We dont have access to those. I want to make sure as they do that peoples privacy is protected. I dont want anyone willynilly going through my phone or looking atat pictures might have children but i also dont want to live in a country where the bad guys know theres a way for them to be absolutely beyond the law gloal.
