I tend to agree with Clark in only one regard: the government is going to get into the key storage/retrieval business in some form or another eventually & inevitably; it's just not stoppable.
I don't understand this attitude at all. There is no constituency for GAK except for law enforcement. Everyone else hates it. There isn't any legal or constitutional basis for believing that GAK is unstoppable. The more information people have about GAK the less likely it becomes, and more and more people find out about it every day. Perhaps believing our opponents have unlimited power and influence adds to the romance of what we're doing here. But it's not true. This is winnable.
