I just don't understand how, in 1998, anyone could let Tenet get away with a claim about key recovery like this. Didn't anyone ask him how he expected high-tech hackers (especially those possibly aided by foreign intelligence agencies) to use key recovery?
Easy. Make not using key recovery a crime with stiffer penalties than any hack. If you can't get 'em on the hack, you get em on a crypto-related charge. Scary stuff. Michael J.
