The one thing I wish you'd mentioned in this blog, but did not, is a point
someone made earlier on this thread: that the fact that the CIA needs to hack
individual devices to bypass end-to-end encryption means that what we are
doing in promoting encryption is effective and worth doing: rather than
everybody's communications being vulnerable, individuals must now be targeted.
I think that’s a good point.
To expand what you said, these tools are for targeted attacks, not mass
surveillance. Encryption continues to be a strong protection against mass
surveillance.
