Reviewer: Joe Clarke Review result: Has Nits I have been requested to review draft-mm-wg-effect-encrypt for the ops directorate. This document describes the effects of pervasive encryption on operators. The document sets out a rather comprehensive list of network data (in motion and at rest) use cases and explains how encryption will effect each of them. Overall, I feel this document is ready. As someone that has supported networks from a troubleshooting perspective for years, I was especially pleased with the numerous callouts to troubleshooting impacts as well as deficiencies in application logging. To that end, it might be useful to specifically point out where vendors have a role to fill in some of these areas to allow for transit encryption while providing the necessary hooks for operators to manage and troubleshoot their network. Specifically, in many of the troubleshooting scenarios, operators won't be able to provide truly useful tools to their end users unless the vendors provide the right level of visibility. On to some nits. In section 1.1 you use "end user's" where I think you mean "end users'". === Section 2. Today, Snowden is fairly well-known. But as this document lives, maybe the specifics of what he's done may get fuzzy. Perhaps this could do with a reference. === Sections 5.3 and 6.2: you reference the abbreviation SNI before formally defining it. It's more obvious in Section 6.2.
