Bullshit, ignorance, and pandering, with one exception:
> The lone voice at the encryption hearing defending the tech companies was Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), who often finds himself at odds with his Republican colleagues on surveillance and privacy issues.
> As the hearing concluded, Lee lamented seeing the conversation “descend into a contest over who loves children and who acts with reckless disregard for them.”
> You can always tell that a conversation is “descending into a bad area” when people invoke extremes, Lee said.
> Referring to cryptographic protections, he warned, “If we open these things up, there are consequences.”

Feeling frustrated with the state of the world today.
Wish it was better.
Everyone, stop being butts!
