So much for "no domestic crypto restrictions." I really hate when people say that, there are plenty, and export restrictions on cryptography software and cryptography in software DOES indirectly but substantially affect the availability and cost of domestic encryption, not to mention that most people download export-grade crypto from the web for convenience. Isn't there a similar ban on encryption-capable telephones and other electronic devices (other than computers). Matt
The FCC prohibits the transmission of encrypted data via analog or digital signals by amateurs.
