How does a national talk work? Is it conducted by Glenn Beck or something?

The problem isn't that they get access to our devices. We have mechanisms in place to prevent blanket access, like warrants. They have access to our houses, for example. The problem is requesting tech companies to create backdoors into encryption that the government can use, which makes encryption much less secure and useful and dangerous.

Comey says encryption technology makes it impossible in a growing number of cases to search electronic devices. He says it's up to U.S. citizens to decide whether to modify the technology.

I thought we already told them to pound sand.

How many times do the "U.S. citizens" have to tell them that they aren't going to get blanket access to all of our devices? Talk about Orwellian!
