High-Tech Leaders Join Forces to Enable International Strong Encryption
The "International Strong Encryption" phrase is something that we need to become active in stopping. Anything which responds to such announcements should put a different spin on this phrase. If the Clipper farce is accepted as "strong" encryption then the battle is lost; maybe something like "it is _international_ strong encryption because it is the strongest encryption people like Saddam Hussein [insert bogeyman du jour] want Americans to have access to"

Back when IBM/Lotus came out with it's "International" version, I proposed the term 'espionage-enabled software'. I still like it. Peter Trei trei@process.com
