Nowhere is government's incompetence and brazen attempt to violate rights more transparent than in the encryption debate. The government feels that they have a right to have a master key to any encryption. Unfortunately, anyone that actually knows anything about encryption knows that a having a back door essentially makes encryption useless. It creates a fatal flaw that WILL be exploited. Even if you believe government has such a right (and no one should), the weakness created by having a back door would be exploited by bad actors (other than government) sooner or later...probably sooner.
