British Parliament Committee slags cryptography bill... http://news.bbc.co.uk/low/english/sci/tech/newsid_347000/347550.stm Exerpt: Key escrow now dropped "Now that key escrow has been dropped by the government, the committee believes that the rationale for an electronic commerce bill is open to question," the report states.
