I am not in UK, so I may be unaware of some subtleties, but generally you have to provide a valid key or go to jail for 2 years. It does not depend on whether you have a key or not, and whether the alleged ciphertext is indeed one. If someone sends you a message encrypted to a key that you really do not have... then you probably are out of luck, to put it mildly. There is no way to prove that you don't have the key! What a way to frame people! Does the RIP bill has any safeguards against that? This revolves around idea that anything that authorities believe is a ciphertext is indeed one. This has nothing to do with computers and everything to do with determination of who is a witch and who isn't. If you sink and die you weren't a witch. Otherwise you are a witch, then you shall be burned at stake. Just that simple. Dmitri __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo!
