Persistent Cryptographic Wrappers (RightsWrapper) - No matter where the digital document (financial newsletter, educational test, minutes from a court proceeding, sensitive health care records, etc.) goes, no matter how it gets there, whether it is used and then subsequently redistributed, etc. the document is always encrypted. It is never left decrypted and exposed even while it is being viewed.
They have lost their mind. Since humans are notoriously bad at performing decryptions in their head in real time, whatever is sent to the display *must* be cleartext. Any competent programmer can grab it at that point.

Naw picture quality will go all to hell. Better to tap in between the decryption hardware and the feed to the picture tube. A couple of days on the workbench and you should be able to pull the data at your leasure. - -- - --------------------------------------------------------------- William H.
