<p>Just as an example of how "having the keys to decrypt things" can
go wrong.</p>
<p>John Walker, Jr.</p>
<p>In 1967, Navy communications officer John Walker, Jr. snuck into
the Soviet Embassy in Washington, D.C., and offered to sell
secrets. He then handed over settings for the KL-47 cipher
machine, which decoded sensitive US Navy messages............ etc
etc.. According to Vitaly Yurchenko, a KGB defector, “It was the
greatest case in KGB history. We deciphered millions of your
messages. If there had been a war, we would have won it.”</p>

<p>There are plenty of other examples of why NOT to allow this bill.<br>
