I'd say the last few PM's we've had have probably been amongst the worst this country's ever seen.
The next one isn't looking great either 
How do you know so much about swallows? Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.

If your password is difficult enough you don't need encryption anyway!

Not really, as encryption is becoming more and more irrelevant. Even AES256 can be broken in a rather trivial manner with multiple programmable GPU's. Every message should be readable? A more correct statement would be every message is readable with a little bit of knowledge and the right hardware.

Maybe, but if Zetabytes of encrypted data are produced, how are they going to know which bits are of interest without decrypting the lot before they do their data mining?
|
|

Quite simply, they can't. Not without some seriously hard-core distributed computing and analytics going on under the hood, where each node is capable of decrypting and sifting through several terabytes of data at any given moment. A tall order even for a government. The question then becomes what does one do with the data, according to Seagate we will have collectively produced some 44 Zetabytes of data by the year 2020. The limits of data storage across the globe, according to Seagate, will have been reached around the same time. Past that point, your guess is as good as mine.
Cameron and others will have to come up with some other form of police state.

So, like with bit torrents, he wants to eliminate the average traffic and cherry-pick victims as and when from what remains. Cynical tiG3zDrNg/0XFrVtUwttyg== isn't he. He's persecuting grandma so he can victimise the savvy at leisure. Nice.
Incidentally, whenever one gets ripped off by DVD vendors (lack of sound, 4:3 aspect ratio, wrong zone, encryption won't work), one can fire up Tails os and navigate to any torrent site, then one download the torrent file and run it from Windoze, no problem. Instant recovery of one's property, no need for snail mail returns, no need to spend more money trying to recover one's money, and of course, one gets what one paid for in the first place. Not that I ever would of course.
Cheers!

David Cameron is ultra-focused on his desire for the government to be able to read your emails. This impractical enemy of democracy and privacy needs to be removed from any position of responsibility.

The US tried something similar back in the 90's, but was slightly smarter about it. Anyone remember the clipper chip? This inexpensive chip was to be installed in phones, PCs, anywhere "secure" encryption was needed. It also provided for key escrow so that any authorized government entity could obtain the key.
It never did catch on, and the public backlash resulted in several free public encryption schemes including PGP, which is still in use.

Just looked out the window, and it's snowing.
Big fat flakes of white yuck. The only good thing is the ground is so wet after the rain it's melting the moment it lands...that won't last though.

Don't you get more than your fair share? Anyway it's no fun for you lot as you can cope with it. Down here we shut all Schools, Supermarkets and workplaces after just a light dusting.

I wish we had it. Don't think we've had Snow here since Nov '12 (might have been Jan '13) anyway it's been awhile and my Daughter was to young to remember.

I don't remember any hear in 2014 at all - which was a bonus!

Does that mean your hearing is so acute that you listen for snow or is it just audible mention?
