According to an AP wire story, Article 23 of the draft Russian constitution says that ``Each person has the right to secret correspondence, telephone conversations, mail, telegraph and other communications.'' Shucks -- there goes another export market for Clipper... Oh yeah -- the AP explains the clause by referring to the ways that Soviet authorities used to spy on people. --Steve Bellovin

That's not really too meaningful. Our Constitution provides for protection against unlawful search and seizure (comments on the reality of this to alt.flame, please :-). Does the draft Russian constitution forbid *all* tapping of mail, phones, etc? I doubt it. So that basically gives them the same protection we (nominally) have, and our government seems quite happy with Key Escrow. Marc
