Spending significant resources to prevent it is exactly what encryption is. What the government wants is to completely eliminate online private communication. Continuing with the analogy: you want telescreens.

Huh? I don't think you understand my comment. Except for the last line, you're just further agreeing with me and I'm already agreeing with you.

So then you're in favor of these government backdoors? Because your comment suggests the opposite.

No, I don't agree that a want of privacy is an American thing.

So you misread my comment but you're one of those types who can't admit when they're wrong. I'd say it's our little secret but I see someone else pointed it out too.

Nope. You're the one refusing to admit being wrong.

Edit: I was totally in the wrong here. Someone else just pointed out you're not the original commenter.
