Nonsense. This is not a technical issue, it's a socio-political issue. It’s both naive & distracting to try & solve this set of problems with code and/or silicon, when it must in fact be addressed within the civic arena. 

There are no purely technical solutions to social ills.  Schneier of all people should know this.
