White House panel: Export crypto, not jobs

By Will Rodger, USATODAY.com

A presidential advisory group is recommending the White House abandon nearly
all export controls on hardware and software vital to assuring the privacy
of Internet users, group members tell USATODAY.com.

The advice from the panel, officially known as the President's Export
Council Subcommittee on Encryption, flies in the face of a Clinton
Administration policy that has drawn fire from civil libertarians and
industry alike. That rancorous debate between the two sides now seems likely
to intensify as the White House's own group of advisers tells it to change
course.
