Does it means that US starts the war on crypto-munitions

  Since then, the Department of Commerce, which administers
  munitions exports, has made some changes, forming the Bureau
  of Industry and Security to deal with the likes of Dr. Dobb's
  and acknowledging the concept of both open source software and
  the Internet.  Now, organizations and individuals are required
  to notify the Bureau before making open source cryptographic
  software public on the Internet.
