Should there be back doors for cell phones?
Craig Timberg States that the government’s increasingly loud complaints about Apple and Google’s tough new forms of smartphone encryption have sidestepped a crucial fact: The same security measures that make it hard for police to get into electronic devices also deters other – be they foreign governments, business rivals or creepy guys looking to steal your photos and post them on the Internet.
In other words, it’s not technically possible to build a backdoor for the FBI without weakening a smartphone’s security in fundamental ways. Doors are made to be opened, and once they’re built, you never know who might find a way to get in.
My feeling on this is that the government knows where we all are at any given time. It is very easy for them to really track most of us. Do we really need to compromise our phones now too? The more technologically advance we get the more control we give up. Meaning because of this technology big brother is always watching.
My thoughts on some creepy guy posting your photos all over the internet is that if you are taking inappropriate selfies that you may not want to share with others don't do it in the first place.
Everything the government says they do is out of safety for Americans. Well, where is that line when safety becomes invasion?

Interesting but worthy question. This is such a controversial topic, not even sure where to start with this one. Sorry, I am having one of those fuzzy days if you know what I mean. I am still trying to figure some stuff out on my site that don't seem to be working.
Will be following though to see if anyone else has some interesting input.

the only problem is if you give them a inch they will take a mile and you should never be putting anything you do not want seen on your phone anyway all the best
