-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Preface: Having weathered the storm of personal attacks, I've concluded that most of what is on this list _right now_ is of insufficient interest to what I'm currently working on to continue, so I've unsubscribed (there's too much traffic to let it be). I will see the occasional posts copied to me and respond, Posts allegedly from me, if not signed, are forgeries until I post a signed notice that I have rejoined the list.

Yes, and the implication is this: the system was designed to prevent law abiding folk from using robust crypto, and to allow the TLA's and LEA's to snoop on them.
Close. For "designed to prevent" read "not make available from the US", and for "folk" read "foreigners". There's no earthly reason the US should assist foreigners in thwarting US intelligence efforts. As readers know, I am opposed to mandatory domestic key escrow.
