What do you mean by "properly encrypted"? MasterCard is not going to let you be the sole holder of your encryption keys. And if you aren't holding them, then they they hold it, and then they must be holding in at least one given country. And that country has the power to force them to turn these keys over.
The power to do this is the goal of this game.
