Deeplinks Blog posts about Encrypting the Web
A now-vacated hearing requiring Apple to undermine the security of its users prompted an ongoing controversy over government access to encrypted devices.
While a federal court in San Bernardino may never rule on the flood of arguments supporting Apple's defense of user security, observers—especially members of Congress—should pay close attention to a few themes that have emerged in the public debate.

En la edición sabatina del New York Times del pasado 13 de marzo, el periodista Matt Apuzzo informa que el Departamento de Justicia de Estados Unidos está enfrascado en una "disputa prolongada" con la aplicación WhatsApp. El gobierno estadounidense está frustrado por su falta de acceso en tiempo real a los mensajes protegidos por el cifrado de extremo a extremo que provee la compañía. La historia puede significar un anticipo perturbador del siguiente frente de batalla en la guerra de la Oficina Federal de Investigación (FBI) contra el cifrado.
In Saturday’s edition of the New York Times, Matt Apuzzo reports that the Department of Justice is locked in a “prolonged standoff” with WhatsApp. The government is frustrated by its lack of real-time access to messages protected by the company’s end-to-end encryption. The story may represent a disturbing preview of the next front in the FBI’s war against encryption.
Yesterday, the Let's Encrypt CA issued its millionth certificate. This is a perfect occasion for us to talk about some plans for the CA and client software through the rest of 2016.
At 9:04am GMT today, the Let's Encrypt Certificate Authority issued its millionth certificate. This is an amazing success, coming only 3 months and 5 days since a beta version of the service became publicly available. We're very excited to be building a more secure and fully encrypted future for the World Wide Web.
