Re: Um, doesn't this blow a hole

Well, quite. Anyone remember how difficult it was to get an uncrippled version of PGP outside the USA, when it's export was banned? Not difficult at all. And if these morons think that strong cryptography can only be developed in the USA, perhaps they should remember that the inventors of Rijndael, the winner of the AES selection process, were Belgian. Maths isn't the sole preserve of any one nation.
