Maybe not. NY Times reports today that industry tells Congress
that cost will be far greater than FBI says, and that big
subsidies will be needed.
Quote: The FBI Director, Louis J. Freeh, agreed that it would
be "very, very difficult" to estimate costs. "But I certainly
know what the cost of not proceeding will be in terms of crime
and destruction," he added. End quote.
Cost could be the Achilles heel of the bill.
Taxpayers arise, sayeth T. May; and cypherpunks write good
goad.
