with secret-
sharing techniques or maintained in a single hardened secure facility; whether
the recovery services provide private keys, session keys, or merely decrypt
specific data as needed; and whether there is a single centralized infrastruc-
ture, many decentralized infrastructures, or a collection of different
approaches.
 
All key-recovery systems require the existence of a highly sensitive and
highly-available secret key or collection of keys that must be maintained in a
secure manner over an extended time period. These systems must make decryption
information quickly accessible to law enforcement agencies without notice to
the key owners. These basic requirements make the problem of general key
recovery difficult and expensive - and potentially too insecure and too costly
for many applications and many users.
 
Attempts to force the widespread adoption of key-recovery encryption through
export controls, import or domestic use regulations, or international standards
should be considered in light of these factors. The public must carefully
consider the costs and benefits of embracing government-access key recovery
before imposing the new security risks and spending the huge investment
required (potentially many billions of dollars, in direct and indirect costs)
to deploy a global key recovery infrastructure.

Force anyone receiving government money to use crackable crypto?

Import restrictions in the U.S.?

Outlaw all non-government approved crypto?

That would never happen...would it?
