9.15.1. (This section needs a lot more) 9.15.2. things are happening fast.... 9.15.3. TIS, Carl Ellison, Karlsruhe 9.15.4. objections to key escrow - "Holding deposits in real estate transactions is a classic example. Built-in wiretaps are *not* escrow, unless the government is a party to your contract. As somebody on the list once said, just because the Mafia call themselves "businessmen" doesn't make them legitimate; calling extorted wiretaps "escrow" doesn't make them a service. "The government has no business making me get their permission to talk to anybody about anything in any language I choose, and they have no business insisting I buy "communication protection service" from some of their friends to do it, any more than the aforenamed "businessmen" have any business insisting I buy "fire insurance" from *them*." [Bill Stewart, 1994-07-24] 9.15.5. Micali's "Fair Escrow" - various efforts underway - need section here - Note: participants at Karlsruhe Conference report that a German group may have published on software key escrow years before Micali filed his patent (reports that NSA officials were "happy")
