> but it shatters the notion that strong commercial encryption has left no opening for law enforcement and hackers Not sure what cave this guy was living in, unless he's using 'strong' literally (in which case the statement is wrong). Biggest reason not to trust 'consumer-grade' encryption is that consumers aren't under constant attack, or aren't aware if they are. If I buy a car, I know when it breaks down. Consumer Reports can say if it sucks. There are way fewer 'educated consumers' for encryption technology.
