STAND.ORG.UK @dopt an MP CAMPAIGNING FOR SAFE E-COMMERCE LEGISLATION |
|||||||||||||||||
The Electronic Commerce Bill would make it a crime to fail to give up
the decryption key to a message if a policeman thinks you've got it. If you
haven't got it, it is up to you to prove you haven't. If you can't prove it,
you would be liable for 2 years in jail. STAND sent this letter to Jack Straw, Home Secretary,
with an encrypted confession to a real crime in it. We also made it look as though
Jack Straw had the decryption key. Here is our photostory: we'll be relying on
these photos to try and convince the judge that we didn't keep a copy of the key;
Jack will have to come up with another argument. |
