No, they only want to outlaw encryption for individuals. Corporations and the gov't all must use the most powerful, unbackdoored encryption possible. And, of course, all devices used by politicians must not have backdoors either.

Politicians hate being backdoored.

But they don't mind it if everyone else gets backdoored. If they can at least watch, if not actually participate.

OMG Yes. What was especially fun was entering one of those multi-page hex dumps of a game, which included a checksum to make sure you entered each line correctly...but you could occasionally enter the line incorrectly but the checksum wouldn't catch it. So you had to go through the entire program and visually match every single byte with the magazine's listing.
