"Applied Cryptography" ekdosis 1996, antigrafw :
"Key escrow has considerable disadvantages. The user has to trust the escrow
agents' security procedures, as well as the integrity of the people
involved. He has to trust the escrow agents not to change their policies,
the government not to change its laws, and those with lawful authority to
get his keys to do so lawfully and responsibly. Imagine a major terrorist
attack in New York; what sorts of limits on the police would be thrown aside
in the aftermath?"
