Bernstein Cryptography Case Dismissed

Posted by michael on from the fighting-the-good-fight dept.

notime writes "According to a post to export@list.cr.yp.to, djb's crypto case has been dismissed without deciding the constitutionality of the current regulations since the DOJ said the government would not enforce several portions of the regulations. Bernstein said in a statement that he hopes the government keeps its promise - 'But if they change their mind and start harassing Internet-security researchers, I'll be back.'" EFF has a document archive for this on-again, off-again case against U.S. Government regulation of cryptography exports.

    The Bearanstan Bears were always favorites of mine and to think they might end up in prison for volating crypto laws is unthinkable.
