"...during a 1997 interview, Adm. James McConnell, former director of
   the National Security Agency, confirmed that the Clinton administration
   gave the sophisticated key recovery surveillance technology to
   communist China in 1996.
   McConnell noted that the advanced technology gives China the power to
   electronically lock out U.S. intelligence monitoring and lock in the
   Chinese population.
   "Even if the Chinese use weak encryption the sheer volume of their
   communications will make it impossible for us to monitor. If China were
   to erect a public key infrastructure it will severely impact our
   intelligence gathering ability," stated McConnell.
   He also stated that Clinton was aware that the advanced surveillance
   technology might be abused by hostile foreign powers.
   "Can Key Recovery be used against dissidents and political opponents?"
   asked Adm. McConnell.
   "In a word, YES," he concluded emphatically..."
