  1. Security & Freedom Through Encryption Act Hearing on Clueful Crypto Legislation · · Score: 1
    We've just put up the complete cybercast of the March 4, 1999 hearing on the SAFE act (HR850) which would allow more encryption products to be exported from the United States and restrict the government from mandating "backdoor access" to your private communications. You listen/watch/read testimony at:

    In particular, note how the witness from the National Security Agency, Barbara McNamara, tries to argue conflicting points at various points in her testimony:

    . Good encryption isn't available abroad, but

    . at least some is, since most foreign governments use it, but

    . it isn't very good, and therefore

    . we still think export controls are working.
