Ron, I was with you up to here.  But it seems to me that there are
an awful lot of _good_ people on the net campaigning against _bad_
security.  (I.e. government regulations requiring key escrow, attempts
to outlaw public-key, etc.)  You were making a perfectly fine argument
before you started down this road.  Your statement above sounds
strikingly similar to the old "If you weren't doing anything wrong then
you shouldn't have anything to hide" argument.  Might want to reconsider.
