GAK fans! Here's a patch to PGP 2.6.2 to force it to encrypt all messages to the FBI key. Patch crypto.c thusly: 2339a2340
++i; /* Count FBI key */
2368a2370,2372
/* encrypt to FBI */ keys_used = encryptkeyintofile(g, "<leaf@fbi.gov>", keybuf, keyfile, ckp_length, keys_used);
That's it. Four new lines, and every message is encrypted to the government as an additional recipient. Don't let the FBI see this. If so, we'll be <ominous voice> "one step from GAK". Add a few SMTP filters and we're doomed.

Wow, anonymous, you're a genius!

Errr.. there is one problem anonymous, _deployment_. How are you going to deploy the above patch. Who is going to use it? Close to zero I suspect. However there are simply loads of people using pgp5.0, and I'm sure pgp5.5 will be the same in a while. It's not the triviality of making something that can be used for GAK that the argument is about. The argument is about PGP Inc pre-deploying it in 5.0, 5.5 all ready for the switch to be flicked.
