Senate Intelligence Committee leaders are vowing to explore ways to
grant more government access to secure communications. Intelligence
Committee Chair Richard Burr, R-N.C., and his counterpart, ranking
Democrat Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., say that encrypted communications
should be more easily accessible by the government.

US Rep. Joe Barton (R-Texas) has a plan to stop terrorists: shut down
websites, including social media networks. Barton today asked Federal
Communications Commission Chairman Tom Wheeler if the commission can
shut down websites... Barton didn't name any specific sites but said
that "we need to do something" because of the terrorist attack in
Paris.
