• Jeb Bush Comes Out Against Encryption

    From physalis17@VERT/DECKHEVN to All on Saturday, August 22, 2015 14:23:14
    Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush said Tuesday that encryption makes it harder for law enforcement to track down "evildoers" - and called for a "much better, more cooperative relationship" with Apple, Google, and other tech companies that are building uncrackable private communication apps into their new products.

    How is it in the 21st century, that we don't have a presidential candidate that knows anything about computers and technology?! I don't know which is worse, this or Hillary Clinton thinking wiping a hard drive requires a cloth! Absolutely aggravating!

    I think this mainly confirms what I already know/suspected. Long ago, I heard that the government got cell phone service companies to provide the government a back door into their encrypted connections so that the government could listen in to peoples' cell phone conversations. So I suppose Jeb Bush's comment comes as no surprise, except perhaps that Jeb Bush revealed that they actually are doing this.

    i watched the video and didnt think she was funny. she was trying to avoid the question.

    i think that if she would have played dumb further and strung the reporter along a bit, it could have been funny.

    I hope that Clinton was joking. can't tell half the time with crap like sopa. jeb may have accidentally revealed what we already know about what the nsa is doing. but I don't think they give a damn.

    i am liking trump. at least he hasn't said something ignorant about computers. I am still not sure who I am voting for. Computer politics are important to me which makes me not want bush or Clinton. that much I am certain of.

    I saw that on the news. That guy Weiner is still around even after he was busted? And he's on Clinton's Team. Sup with that?

    Just a little racism/prejudice to trade for it. That kind of kills the deal for me. Sanders is pretty smart.
