DOJ wants Court to re-think Pro-Crypto Ruling

ptevis writes "There's a story over on Wired News about the DOJ asking the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals to reconsider their decision in May's landamrk crypto case. It's got some interesting info about where the case may go from here and what the government may try to do. " This stems from the lawsuit from the University of Illinois professor who wanted to post one of his programs online. The DOJ/White House is claiming that this will make broadband listening too difficult, and that "this type of regulation is an executive branch policy decision involving 'extraordinarily sensitive' info that's too secret to disclose publicly." However, it seems unlikely that the court will change its' mind.
