   I am not certain about this move in particular, but there has also been   
   something similar going on in the EU for a while now.  Some of the   
   countries are not in agreement that encryption should be "opened" to law   
   enforcement because introducing that opening would provide hackers/etc. a   
   backdoor for exploit.   
      
   Supposedly the EU wants the ability on the grounds of child safety.   
      
   Someone living in the EU may be able to explain it a little better, but   
   that is my understanding of it.   
      
   And, yes, I also hope there are significant forces that can counter such   
   moves.
