I, of course, know of the "dislike" of GAK here. I am curious to know, however, if the "dislike" is because government would have access under any circumstances or if the primary worry is that government will cheat and get access when most would agree that they shouldn't (either by the judge "cheating" or a TLA stealing it).

In other words ... if it took agreement by a review board composed of non-LEA members of this list, would the escrow be acceptable??

Looking at it simply as a cryptosystem, I'd have to vote no, since the security of the system can be "easily" (in a cryptographic sense) compromised. I feel safer knowing my privacy is protected by the laws of mathematics, instead of the laws of the USA. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQEVAwUBME9jIs3xoLPBSgtxAQEndAf/V9hJEyMIHe6/h2UmEWT4KH81Y/HuBHZr kuiHIRNFRGgsYKFIk72YGBltZvbPeWcX15RmGB6DO+91ecfmRMplW14RYAQyPpcx AGC3rQ966hZ/mRHRi7Ygtw1tbRKgbDAaNzx468TRZGwl2LxexpbxzOZoy2kMR18M +Kj6sLahlQxyTO6jx26uoj5uqmfdnxFAfjUDWAjLyhjH5x7XzqpJHQHKSFGIsdKY X1tw7IPPDUElXJkdx0aVMhOFwEen3XGm3qrx/kJRmnG7Q9WoAHE5xqOLSAHyYImd PaUT63Uzgop7euL4FROHqrIrlh70IPiWCk7t7OEwT8CS3MbbL/WgjQ== =hYy7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
