I think this article is related to Clinton's recent decision to loosen
export restrictions on hardware:
http://www.nytimes.com/library/tech/99/07/biztech/articles/02export.html
I like this quote:
In a statement on Thursday, Clinton said that maintaining the current
level of controls "would hurt U.S. exports without benefiting our
national security." His Commerce Secretary, William M. Daley, held a
Sony Playstation aloft in the White House press room on Thursday, and
said that unless the controls were eased, a powerful new version of
the popular game machine available this Christmas would be classified
as restricted.
Clearly, we need a crypto-based protduct for christmas. Maybe
Fisher-Price wants to make a brightly colored secure phone for
toddlers :-)
