You know, one thing I'm sure (hope) will come out of this is that enough people in the public should be sufficiently outraged at this that we start making some private sector headway in the data security race and perhaps we'll end up with some actual secure products by companies that aren't under the "jurisdiction" of U.S. policy, instead of those that just say they're secure but fall flat on their face when it comes to something as trivial as an NSL or an order for a pen register. If they were really secure, then these things wouldn't make the slightest difference.
