I've posted this before. We shouldn't be in the least surprised that governments don't care about privacy. Citizens like you don't, so why should they? Pity.
Meanwhile, Mr. I-Don't-Care-If-The-State-Monitors-Me-Because-I-Think-I-Have-Nothing-To-Hide-And-I-Trust-That-Whoever-Gets-Their-Hands-On-My-Personal-Information-Will-Be-Benevolent, post your address so They can bug your home. Nothing to hide, right?
I am sorry, you are not the government.. There is no reason for me to tell you my address. I won't mind government know my address p, becuase they already know that. You tell your address to government when applying drivers license, you tell your address to government when you applying social securities. Do you really think you can stop government when it has full determination on doing so?
I am sorry, no matter what Apple or other techn company do, they won't able to stop the FBI nor they won't stop government implementing any policies.
I don't believe in people can stop anything, if you can, you guys could stop lots of stupid policy or things government did.
I don't care anymore, if government want to that, I could care less. If government want my data, then take them. If I cannot stop government do crap, then I why not use government to my benefit? If we cannot stop government implements policy that use bulk surveillance, then we should use it for our benefit: help us safer.

If you want to hand over your information to the government, be my guest, but don't expect everyone else to do so. If the government is going to come to me and say that it needs my information to keep me safe, I'm going to ask for proof as to how handing over my info helps keep me safe.
Do you really think weakening encryption is going to do anything to help law enforcement catch criminals? They'll just do like they've always done-find a workaround. If mainstream services/devices like iPhones or Android devices don't have encryption, they'll find something that does. Encryption isn't some highly guarded secret. The end result will be that weakening encryption will do nothing to catch the worst of the worst. At best, they'll catch some small-time criminal who was stupid enough to carry out their activities where they can get caught easily. Meanwhile, the rest of us who want encryption to protect only our credit card numbers, health information and other sensitive data will be forced to do without.
If you put any of your sensitive data in your phone, then you are fool. I never out my password, bank information on my phone. I never register online banking or download any online banking app.
I strongly support what Obama said. There should be a balance between encryption and ability of law enforcement across to information. If there is absolutely unbreakable encryption, how to you make sure these thing won't fall into terrorist hand? What do you do when government use this as way to against us? Have you ever though other side?
I am sorry. I fully support any law that requiring tech company allow government access to their software. But I also think there should be an oversight on that.
