Re: Ban Encryption

I think it's only a matter of time before the US Government tries to ban encryption. It's quickly becoming the last measure in the fight to maintain privacy online. The ISPs would support it, because it will mess up their ability to throttle content. I for one have nothing to hide, but I encrypt everything I can. Not because I'm doing illegal activities, but more of a "fuck you" to my ISP and anyone who might be listening in.
I couldn't agree more. The US Government is too afraid of anything it doesn't know about or can't get access too. However banning encryption I don't think will happen anytime soon. What I can see is the US Gov forcing you to install gov approved spy software on your pc where the information is not encrypted before it gets sent out on your encrypted connection.
