Schneier on Australia's encryption laws and CyberCon speaker bans
Whenever this conversation appears in the news and I listen to various law enforcement and political folks defend some sort of need for breakable encryption, I always jump to the logical end.  Or at least one possible one.<p>In the future there WILL be brain computer interfaces.  Memory offloading, recording of visual and auditory cortex data, and other more mundane uses.  This may seem like fantasy/scifi.  But barring some societal/technological collapse, this will eventually happen.  If the precident is set for breakable encryption/back doors, this will absolutely be used to "supoena" people's "brain information" in that context.  The invasive-ness will have no end.
