The Cipher Brief spoke with Nate Cardozo, a lawyer for the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), about the debate over security and privacy as it relates to end-to-end encryption. Cardozo said the FBI’s concerns about “going dark” are overblown.

“The Cipher Brief has become the most popular outlet for former intelligence officers; no media outlet is even a close second to The Cipher Brief in terms of the number of articles published by formers.” —Sept. 2018, Studies in Intelligence, Vol. 62
