The FBI's director says the agency is collecting data that he will present next year in hopes of sparking a national conversation about law enforcement's increasing inability to access encrypted electronic devices.
Speaking on Friday at the American Bar Association conference in San Francisco, James Comey says the agency was unable to access 650 of 5,000 electronic devices investigators attempted to search over the last 10 months.
Comey says encryption technology makes it impossible in a growing number of cases to search electronic devices. He says it's up to U.S. citizens to decide whether to modify the technology.

I really wonder if anyone has the mindset and driven for this kind of stuff, would this kind if individual be tolerated in the workplace?
For instance, would a student of +Fravia and +ORC ( or even knew who these people were ) be considered for a classified position?
My personal observation is the government establishments are looking more for someone who looks good in a suit, has a good firm business handshake, and knows not to rock the boat - no matter what they see coming up.
