I don't understand your examples. Are they supposed to argue for the universal registration of all keys and encryption methods? In some examples you give, it seems subpoenaing the key would suffice and would be consistent with current law. In the S&L case (and for other regulated businesses) simply regulate that records the government may oversee not be encrypted, or that those keys must be registered, or subpoena the keys when necessary. Why paint with a broad brush when narrowly tailored and/or already existing law will accomplish the same ends with less controversy and preserve greater liberty?
