Comment Neelie (Kroes)

Making speeches talk

excerpt from: Securing our digital economy

[...] Security is not only about damage control. It can also be Europe’s competitive advantage in a world that is seeking security. President Obama's recent speech was a welcome first step to better security. Democratic checks and balances are essential: but they are not enough: we must also protect ourselves

Obama is not talking about security. He is just talking about the next step of hardware and software. So if europeans are making sure to use encryption, US needs to be prepared to still be able to collect and decrypt the data.
