Etizoni is a very technical boy. Unfortunately, his value system led him to invent "Fair Cryptography" (that's "fair" as in "Fair Trade", not "fair" as in "actually fair to anybody" :-), which covers a couple of variants on key escrow.
Hmm. So this explains all those papers on "fair cryptosystems." Well, at least one paper (and patent!) by Micali...
Gak. How did I spaz so badly on that one? Of course it was Micali. Ignore my whole paragraph! I think Etizoni did something technical though, but maybe it was some other privacy-degrading thing, or maybe I'm remembering him commenting on fair cryptosystems. Thanks!
