...and the NSA has tapped into every strand of fiber in the world making this sales pitch meaningless. They already have access. They only request access to allow what they already know to be admissible in the courts.
three points:
1. apathy is the friend of all such measures
2. the NSA aren't the only gig in town both in terms of agency and country and in any case have a nothing close to ubiquitous coverage
3. as hard as you might find it to believe some people do have principles and beliefs. our company was founded and has always operated in line with those of our founders. all this is nothing new. again refer to point 1 about apathy.
we do use forward secrecy for all our client facing services and of course accept https only. we are also looking at upgrading from 128bit to either 256bit or even 512bit to offer a further 'extended runway' against future direct decryption :)
