Feds Make Power Grab on Google And Others About Encryption

++First we got the attacks on Edward Snowden because of the Paris attacks.

++Now we have John Brennen putting pressure on the telecom companies and Google and Facebook for access to encrypted accounts.

++We know ISIS has used Playstation 4 for giving directions which may be Anonymous declared war again on ISIS. Charles Pierce in Esquire wrote a piece he was more confident in Anonymous than he was in the United States combatting ISIS.

++What we know is that terrorists,child traffickers and Wall Street businesses use the black or dark internet. The fact that the NSA pleads being hamstrung on this doesn't pass the smell test. 

++This reminds me about the old canard about the wall between the FBI and the CIA. Bill Clinton ended that by executive order but the Bush administration used it as a "reality" to push for greater powers through the Patriot Act.

++Consider this--We have spent trillions of dollars since 9/11 on so-called anti-terrorist programs. If we haven't established a reliable one by now no amount of money is going to buy a better one. You are being conned.
