I believe this law is intended for non-governmental traffic only.  The military
routinely one-time encrypts overseas traffic of an extremely sensitive nature.
It would be foolish not too.  However, I don't think a private party should
feel it necessary to have something unbreakable so the NSA couldn't monitor.
If they are so against it, they must be doing something illegal.  There is
a price to pay for freedom, and that means Uncle Sam must monitor overseas
traffic and some domestic traffic to make sure involved parties aren't
doing things that jeopardize our security.  Please direct all flames to
/dev/null because if you aren't willing to give up something for freedom,
I don't want to here from you.
