What is best policy paper on crypto?

I happen to know that an influential Congresspern will be meeting with some Cato folks tomorrow morning, so I'm assuming this isn't an idle request. -Declan // declan(a)eff.org // I do not represent the EFF // declan(a)well.com // ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 11 Sep 1996 16:46:09 -0400 From: Solveig Bernstein <sberns(a)cato.org> To: fight-censorship(a)vorlon.mit.edu Subject: What is best policy paper on crypto? If you folks were to pick one policy paper or book or magazine article that did the best job of explaining why export controls on crypto were bad, and/or why key escrow is not a good idea, which one would you pick? I'm looking for something that would be helpful to a Congressperson.

That Evil Internet, Pt. XXIII
by drose＠AZStarNet.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Caught an interesting segment on this evening's PBS news program with Jim Lehrer. Two senators were discussing whether the U.S. should sign the international agreement banning chemical warfare. Sen. Kyl maintains that verification is impossible and that Iraq, Libya, and North Korea will never participate. Sen. Nunn responds that we should sign anyway. Besides, he adds in the non sequitur of the week, anyone can get instructions on how to build chemical weapons on the Internet. I guess the Internet isn't just for pornography and conventional bomb-making advice anymore. Dave Rose
