Re:Widespread Crypto Revolution? (Score 1)

Without getting too far off topic, I think they just solve it using some good solid law writing skills. If they're outlawing encryption chances are the deffinition will be "stuff we cant see" and it will be like the british laws you must make a reasonable effort to produce the means to read them. Also, if the "well known magic numbers" were so well known and I was knowingly sending encrypted info and I didn't want the govt. to see I would start stripping them off the front and putting them back on at the other side. I'd also think about doing something a little more stealth and less trackable than emailing the file. Emails stick around on servers and backups for a long time. If it's gone, encrypted or not they cant read it.
