Hmm. Not only is this law unenforceable, it is unenforced. Anyone, non-US or otherwise can buy crypto books - you just can't get the code on floppy. Bruce Schneier went through this procedure when he CJ'ed "Applied Cryptography".
To my knowledge, Bruce Schneier never CJ'ed "Applied Cryptography". Phil Karn did that.
Point is, it got CJ'ed, and easily too. In fact I understand that the process was 'trivial'. Just the software on floppy was a problem. M -- Mark Murray 46 Harvey Rd, Claremont, Cape Town 7700, South Africa +27 21 61-3768 GMT+0200 Finger mark@grumble.grondar.za for PGP key
