hi,
The government knows exactly what it's doing. It wants to discourage the use of encryption by any means necessary, because of sheer numbers.
Does n't govt intervension always increase the numbers?
Basically, the more messages that are encypted, the more hardware (and therefore $$$) will be needed to decrypt them. Therefore, the only way they can stay ahead of the game is to keep the numbers as low as possible, so they can continue to "outspend" the problem.
Why don't we have encrypted spams over the internet rather than plain text spam ?Thats one way we can all benefit frm spam.
The US Government has pretty much given up on restricting crypto exports.
Why did that happen? Regards Sarath. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Faith Hill - Exclusive Performances, Videos & More http://faith.yahoo.com
