Bill Clinton Wants to Put "Big Brother" in Your Computer

  Bill Clinton believes in bureaucratic micro-management of 
  the information economy. Within his first 100 days as 
  President, Bill Clinton proposed the Clipper Chip -- a 
  secret government-controlled encryption algorithm -- and a 
  companion key escrow system where two government agencies 
  would hold a copy of the keys for every Clipper user. Since 
  then Bill Clinton has released updated versions of 
  encryption proposals which insist that the government hold 
  a key to individual's private data communications.
