I know that fundamentally, changes to the fabric of the internet, and sort of our methods of communication, can enforce our rights.

The United States need to be focusing more on creating a more secure, more reliable, more robust, and more trusted internet, not one that's weaker, not one that relies on this systemic model of exploiting every vulnerability, every threat out there.

The FBI was creating a world where citizens rely on Apple to defend their rights, rather than the other way around.

All this is a blessing and a curse. It's a blessing because it helps people establish what they value; they understand the sort of ideas they identify with. The curse is that they aren't challenged in their views. The Internet becomes an echo chamber. Users don't see the counterarguments.

We decentralise the ability to decide the level of publicity that's attached to any of our communications.

The consent of the governed is not consent if it is not informed.

The NSA has built an infrastructure that allows it to intercept almost everything.
