Ow, I was expecting a Computerphile or Tom Scott video I hadn't watched yet.
That said, it's pretty clear that Apple is in the right here. John Oliver made it look like a debate by saying something bad on their side (probably to conciliate both points and not seem biased), but that has nothing to do with what should be done now that things are happening.

Do link em'. I'm not subscribed to either since I think they cover too much useless fluff, but videos on stuff like this ought to be great.
Yeah, it really isn't as much of a debate as John made it out to be.

This is an incredibly important topic. The telling part of this debate is in my opinion that all the the security experts are against creating backdoors. If everybody with substantial knowledge opposes it and only politicians with little to no knowledge of security are in favor of it I think it's clear as day what needs to happen.
