EFF sues Justice over push for new encryption "back doors"

The Electronic Frontier Foundation is suing the FBI, DEA, and the Department of Justice Criminal Division, "demanding records about problems or limitations that hamper electronic surveillance and potentially justify or undermine" the DoJ's new demands for back doors in all communications systems. If granted, those expanded spying powers would make it easier for the government to snoop on email, webmail, Skype, Facebook, even Xboxes.
