Or for that matter, poorly selling. There's nothing in the bill that
requires that the encryption be otherwise unbreakable (e.g. I could
get a tax credit for implementing a backdoor'ed rot-13) or that anyone
actually buy or use the snake-oil^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hencryption
software.
Just how *would* you put a backdoor into rot-13? Ah! I've got it!
Implement a new, higher security 2rot-13 (apply rot-13 twice, for
double the encryption value).
