WSJ: "In Setback for Lawmakers Seeking Change Encryption Can't Be Limited, Experts Say"

[John R Levine]

The Wall Street Journal had a good article about crypto on 9/25.

It basically said the genie is out of the bottle, every PC in the world
has strong crypto in its web browser and mail program and it's not going
away.  It quotes people saying that you can write strong crypto as Excel
macros, the mathematics is widely knows.  The last graf points out that
the cops are not helpless, people still write down their passwords and one
can install keyloggers on bad guy's PCs.
