FBI Director Christopher Wray said Wednesday that unless the U.S. government and private industry are able to come to a compromise on the issue of default encryption on consumer devices, legislation may be how the debate is ultimately decided.
"I think there should be [room for compromise]," Wray said Wednesday night at a national security conference in Aspen, Colorado. "I don't want to characterize private conversations we're having with people in the industry. We're not there yet for sure. And if we can't get there, there may be other remedies, like legislation, that would have to come to bear."
Wray described the issue of “Going Dark” because of encryption as a "significant" and "growing" problem for federal, state and local law enforcement as well as foreign law enforcement and intelligence agencies. He claims strong encryption on mobile phones keeps law enforcement from gaining access to key evidence as it relates to active criminal investigations.

A drunk man is in the bathroom at a bar. At the urinal next to his is a Leprechaun. The Leprechaun has a massively huge dick, the guy asks "Hey how did you get your dick so big?". The Leprechaun says, "I'm a Leprechaun, I can have whatever I want.". Pressing, the man says, "How could I make mine that large?". The Leprechaun replies, "If you let me put my magic dick up your ass you will wake up tomorrow with a huge dick.". Reluctantly the man says ok go ahead and he bends over. After a few minutes of vigorous butt sex the Leprechaun leans over and whispers in the man's ear, "How old are you?". The man replies, "I'm 34.". Laughing the Leprechaun replies, "34, and you still believe in Leprechauns?!".
