Clinton's new Crypto Diplomat

Matthew Weigel writes "Although his real role is unclear, Clinton has appointed a new adviser for encryption. Check here for the whole story, but it's supposed to be a re-affirmation of current policy (wanting key recovery here in the States), now that the old crypto adviser is working in the Commerce Dept. (an anti key-recovery player). It's not clear whether Steven Honigman, the new guy, will have any power, or simply be a mouthpiece."
