A few weeks ago, we pointed out that Hillary Clinton had, unfortunately, joined in with other clueless politicians to call for „Silicon Valley“ to „develop solutions“ to the „concerns of law enforcement and counterterrorism professionals“ on „encryption.“ Anyone who‘s followed the „debate“ over encryption over the past year knows that asking Silicon Valley to „develop solutions“ is James Comey‘s codewords for „create a backdoor for encryption“ — no matter how many times experts in encryption have explained to him that such a solution makes everyone less safe. After we and a few others wrote about Clinton‘s unfortunate and dangerous decision to throw her lot in with those who wish to backdoor encryption, one of her main tech advisers, Alec Ross, went a little ballistic, insisting she did not say what she clearly did say.
