FBI pushes for surveillance backdoors in Web 2.0 tools

The FBI pushed Thursday for more built-in backdoors for online communication, but beat a hasty retreat from its earlier proposal to require providers of encrypted communications services to include a backdoor for law enforcement wiretaps.
The FBI's further push for expanded powers to wiretap online communications in real time comes against the backdrop of revolutions in the Middle East that relied heavily on social media communication tools and as Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called for worldwide internet freedom.
So force them to built in backdoors, nobody cares. Anything security related should be based on open source anyway. The FBI still assumes that this is something they can control when they clearly can not. The development of encrytion technology will simply move out of the US. It will only backfire hard.
