FBI Director Equates Protecting Personal Privacy with Lawlessness
encryption allows cell phone users to "place themselves beyond the law"
So Google, Yahoo, Facebook, etc. selling everything they can data mine from our phones and tablets is not the reason we want to protect our privacy. Protecting ourselves from unwarranted government spying is not the reason. The reason we need to protect our privacy is so we can put ourselves beyond the law. How ridiculous. I think they are projecting the 1% mentality on the rest of us.
We have a constitutional right to privacy and the new encryption functions help us have that. If using phones they cannot hack is an attempt at lawlessness, how far are we from Orwell's 1984 that we are trying to put ourselves beyond the law by not having streaming camera's in all the rooms of our living quarters?
Inside the New York Fed: Secret Recordings and a Culture Clash
Segarra's recordings show the Fed's subservience to the banks
When it comes to the banks and other businesses playing as close to the line of legality or stepping over it, our attempts to monitor those activities is unreasonable. Their privacy is certainly not an attempt to break laws. Nope, business ethics and regulations protect us from that just fine as the past has shown.

Recall Timothy Geithner during confirmation hearings for his nomination to the U.S. Treasury, stating that he did not believe it was his job to regulate Wall Street banks.
