In the hearing a few minutes ago, Sen. Feinstein said she personally called Apple at the time urging them to help investigators but to no avail. She also said she later learned what the FBI paid, but won’t disclose how much. — PolitiTweet.org

Ultimately, after Apple declined to help break the encryption, the FBI wound up paying a third party company to do it. — PolitiTweet.org

Barr’s criticism of encryption revives a years-long debate about the technology and recalls the 2015 San Bernardino shooting, when the FBI wanted the encrypted contents of an iPhone used by one of the attackers. — PolitiTweet.org

NEW: As part of that pushback, Facebook wrote *yesterday* to Barr arguing that calls for encryption backdoors are a “gift to criminals, hackers and repressive regimes.” Encryption may allow some criminals to evade detection, but it also *keeps* data from being stolen, FB says. — PolitiTweet.org

Today the Senate Judiciary Committee is holding a big hearing on encryption, following criticism by AG Barr of the technology and claims that it hinders law enforcement investigations. Tech and civil society groups say encryption is a vital privacy and security protection. — PolitiTweet.org

Oh, and another key thing the bill does is require telcos to offer robocall-blocking at no extra charge. Recall that the FCC has urged carriers to make the feature more widely available, but notably stopped short of saying companies should do it for free. — PolitiTweet.org

The Senate had passed an earlier version of it back in May; today’s bill reflects a consensus between House and Senate lawmakers. So now it goes back to the Senate for final approoval, and then presumably to the White House. — PolitiTweet.org

Relief is coming on robocalls: The House just voted 417-3 to approve a bill that’d create stiffer fines for willful scam robocallers. It’d also force telcos to bolster caller ID with new technologies. — PolitiTweet.org
