It’s fascinating to me how many laypeople are saying “public security is important, therefore we should unlock the phone” while many technologists are saying “public security is important, therefore we should absolutely not unlock the phone”.


>We’ve arranged a society based on science and technology, in which nobody understands anything about science and technology. And this combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces. Who is running the science and technology in a democracy if the people don’t know anything about it?

-Carl Sagan
