Try this: The right of the people to be secure in cryptographic communications shall not be infringed, and no laws shall issue forcing the disclosure or registry of cryptographic keys. Just so no one misunderstands the intent, this is a complete ban on infringement, and shall extend to federal, state, local and all other arms of government. That might be airtight enough. -- Karl Denninger (karl@ddsw1.MCS.COM, <well-connected>!ddsw1!karl) Data Line: [+1 312 248-0900] Anon. arch.
