* NEED FOR A NATIONAL POLICY
*
* A national policy embodied in legislation is needed which insures
* that cryptography use in the United States should be forced to be
* crackable by law enforcement, so such communications can be monitored
* with real-time decryption.
*
* All cryptography that cannot meet this standard should be prohibited.



The U.S. asked the OECD to agree to internationally required Key Recovery.
