Story: Police want power to seize encryption keys
Posted by: Anonymous (Wednesday 16 August 2006, 2:02 PM)
The whole question of encryption needs rethinking. It is used because "it is there" in amny cases. If data is so vital then the owners should physically protect it as they would have done a decade ago. In the meantime make it a criminal offence to refuse to divukge encryption when ordered to release it by a High Court judge and the offender to remain in custody and he/she releases the data. I hope that Campbell and his kind never have their loved ones killed by a terrorist becuse they were able to retain the keys.
