Apparently, the Cuban government has arrested an alleged terrorist for several hotel bombings. They clain he was hired by Anti-Castro forces in the US. Now, for the relavant part for the list; the Cubans also claim to have tapes of encrypted telephone conversations between the bomber and his backers. I do not know if the tapes are in the clear of not. Nice to know that law enforcement can still make arrests even when nasty, bad, encryption is being used. I wonder if the Cubans asked the US Governemnt for any keys.... (I wonder if there had been escrowed keys, if the US Government would have given them to Cuba.) ----- End of forwarded message from Scott Carr -----
