White House weighs encryption crackdown

You need look no further than the very next right (the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed) to understand that these "rights" are rather squishy in practice.

I 100% agree freedom of speech protects encryption, plain as day; I'm justifiably skeptical that a court would see it that way.

If we allow encryption, how do we know that encrypted file doesn't contain AR-15 blueprints or school shooting plans? Think of the children! /s

I just got mt AR-15 blueprints and the gun I printed was 2x more powerful because they came encrypted.
