ENCRYPTION: The Clinton administration's encryption plans are having licensing troubles: The US Commerce Department's NIST is having licensing discussions with inventors over its Digital Signature Standard, and an MIT scientist claims that the Clipper chip infringes on his patents. <WSJ 5/31 p.B6>
Can someone please post the id of this "MIT Scientist?"
Micali. He claims Clipper (and escrowed systems in general) violate his 2 year old "fair" crypto patent. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rishab Aiyer Ghosh rishab@dxm.ernet.in Voicemail +91 11 3760335; Vox/Fax/Data 6853410 H-34C Saket New Delhi 110017 INDIA The National Fairness to Game Animals Association says: Support your right to arm bears! --------------------------------------------------------------------------
