Congressional Panel Votes To Overhaul Encryption Law [September 12] In a blow to Internet privacy advocates and software firms worried about losing their edge overseas, the House National Security Committee voted 45 to 1 to overhaul the Security and Freedom through Encryption Act (SAFE). The panel is seeking what sponsors call a "responsible compromise" between keeping U.S. companies competitive overseas and national security interests that run counter to the original intent of SAFE, which originally set out to relax government controls on exportable encryption. The amendment would essentially hand over control of all encryption exports directly to President Clinton, whose administration would determine the level of encryption strength any software intended for export could have on an annual basis, Media Daily said. Whether this version of the bill will survive the process is still far from clear. However, the House Intelligence Committee, long a backer of export controls, will likely favor this version of SAFE. After that, the bill must be reconciled with other versions already approved by two other House committees.
