Re: EFF Summary of May 3 1994 Clipper and Digital Telephony Hearings (fwd)
FORWARDED MAIL ------- From: netcomsv.netcom.com!access.digex.net!pcw (Peter Wayner) Date: 05 May 94 Originally To: toad.com!cypherpunks, central.cis.upenn.edu!farber Dr. Farber suggested that at
the very least Congress weld into law a guarantee that Clipper remain voluntary, that the Judiciary be an escrow holder. He cautioned, in the words of Benjamin Franklin, "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety"
When are you people going to wake up (NEVER as long as you are not in the real world). The congress and house may legislate what ever they want. Your best insurance against the clipper chip is people having good back-door less freeware cryptography programs that educates them on why Clipper is a bum deal. Screw all the judiciary crap. If Mr and Mrs computer user doesn't have access to it they never will. They DO NOT have a FUCKING CLUE as to what a BBS and FTP or AN ESCROWED KEY account is. Much less being a COMPUTER ILLUMINATTI like you are. The power is with the public. -- * Spelling errors are intentional and international * Jim Nalbandian netcomsv!lassie!jim%lassie@netcom.com Tempe, Arizona, USA N7SZS@K7BUC.AZ.US.NA No free man shall ever be de-barred the use of arms.
