Strong encryption is not a luxury

Law enforcement officials usually play on our fears whenever their powers are limited, but those limitations are what keep our society from being a police state. The Supreme Court’s ruling in Miranda v. Arizona in 1966 led to catastrophic predictions that many criminals would go free and society would be harmed if all arrested people were informed of their rights. Didn’t happen.

I’ve seen “You have the right…” on so many TV shows and movies I never once thought about where that right might have come from… history is fun.
