I hesitate to applaud such a day. Not that it isn't wise advice to
Encrypt All The Things, but we're lacking the necessary counterpart,
which is serious political momentum to defang (possibly read: defund)
said abusive agencies. As has been opined many times in the past 12
months, it's going to take more than a crypto arms race to achieve what
I think we'd agree is "success" -- in this context meaning "real privacy."

That having been said, Encrypt All The Things!
