Given what is required to get a license (for example, 4.b in the first document, says that one must have people trained in information security), I guess the new law is not supposed to limit use of cryptography by ordinary people, but to limit distribution of snake-oil by self-proclaimed "professionals".
I would have guessed the opposite - it's designed to prevent customized encryption solutions that actually work, but not to prevent mass-market products. Since you don't need a license for totally inadequate crypto, you can still sell snake-oil customized for your users. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
