    The Canadian gov itself was taking advantage of this last year by
    investing in commercial encryption technology if I recall.
    Someone pointed otu that forwarding me the pach knowing I would resend it
    would still in violation of US law. :(
    Now that I think of it the person would have to not know that I would
    forward it.
    Btw what are the odds of prosecution considering the US govt lost the last
    lawsuit on the grounds that the law violated free speech ?
