Story: Government to force handover of encryption keys
This is how it works -
Police enter Bank demanding encryption keys to account data.
Manager, clueless but knows the Chief Constable via various secret societies, passes the buck to the equally clueless and spotty 21year old Account Manager.
He/She blames the even more clueless and spotty 18 year old counter operative (teller).
He/She blames the New Computer system.
Computer system wont say anything because nobody knows the right password.
Now enters the Banks IT manager - after double parking his new BMW alongside a battered Jam Sandwich - and after a brief, but private, discussion with the Bank Manager states "My Contract of employment strictly forbids me to reveal any information which might endanger my employers or their clients business activities" (so piss off you morons).
IT Manager is arrested, tried, convicted and released six months later for good behavior (after hacking the Home Secretarys computer and fixing the governors salary for the next ten years) and returns to a very healthy six figure bank balance and a new home in the South of France.
Long live the ultimate deterrent!!
