The comment's clarity was not questioned. You are passing around the same tired line that because politicians do not understand technology and how it can be used against anyone. Sure computers are new but communication technology is not. All a politician needs to understand is "capability". That is it. "We can read their communications", no degree in CS required. Also, they have power geeks advising them left and right. They know "capabilities" can be misused. They know this.

Is this clear?
