If police do not search every home daily, it will one day result in the death of a child.
If we do not all wear government tracking collars with explosive kill switches, that too will one day result in the death of a child.
(Letting the government go invisibly unchecked will result in a LOT of deaths one far off day, and lot of loss of liberty in the meantime. Liberty children MIGHT want to grow up having.)
Quick! Ban bicycling, horseback riding, swing sets, riding in the front seat of a car, swinging on a rope over a creek! Think of the children's lives that could be saved!! Or better yet, use the argument: What if it was your kid?
When asked why Apple can't create a backdoor to be used by law enforcement agents acting with proper court approval, Sewell said, "We can't create a key that only the good guys can use."
Best and most appropriate line in the entire article.
People will die due to corrupt and evil police. People will die because of corrupt and evil wall street bankers. People will die because of a president that allows torture. People will die because of a corrupt and evil government.
Yeah, I'll take my chances with ios 8 over a crooked, cop/judge/politician/preist/teacher/senator/congressman/government/etc...etc...etc...
An ios 8 device doesn't bother me. The rest do. An ios 8 doesn't scare me. The rest do.
The question they're really asking us, is how much are you willing to sacrifice for freedom? The answer - Americans have already demonstrated that we're willing to die for our freedom.
I don't want a future theoretical child to die, but me doing what's right won't kill a child.. The criminal is the one that kills a child. Me doing what's right will have a positive effect on my child - he won't have to deal with a world where the government is monitoring, logging, and crawling through his conversations from the last 20 years with the touch of a button.
The DoJ are insulting the American public's intelligence - this is clearly an NSA straw man to allow domestic spying because all democracies fail from within.
And it's about that time again.
Apparently Governments should be afraid of their people.
Not a democracy, but your point remains totally valid. Sorry, it’s just a really important distinction. We’re a republic because direct democracies are untenable at sizes greater than a few thousand.

Well, if anyone needed a handy definition of dirty pool, here ya' go.
Honestly, I'm ashamed.
How did my country become a place that so readily selects
this kind of thorough-going butthole for success and responsibility?
