Just because encryption bans are badly conceived or implemented doesn't mean they are wrong. Encryption has military value. The point is that the good outweighs the bad. Making the government seem like buffoons for attempting to prevent military technology like dual use crypto is not in our best interest. The same government upheld the right to free speech, so this balancing act is widely observed. The government is not evil, and yes they make mistakes, but they also not infrequently protect us. And I, for one, like being protected.
