Strategic Export Controls: The Impact on Cryptography
Overview This paper questions the value of existing export controls, and sets out the intolerable wider consequences for business, education and liberty of the proposed extension. Cryptography, the art of secret writing, dates at least from classical times. But until quite recently the practical difficulties of using it on a large scale have limited its effective use to the rich and powerful, and primarily to the military and diplomatic arms of government.
