It&#x27;s not that terrorists with good operational procedures would not be able to find more secure means, but migrating to those means would do two things:<p>Fewer operatives would have the rigor to operate securely all the time.  You just need one to trip up to give the house away, but with ubiquitous encr. anyone and their nona can encrypt without leaking.<p>Two, switching to alternate means would mean a big slowdown in comms speed and throughput&#x2F;dissemination and comms can be compromised&#x2F;altered via interception.
