      Another piece from WIRED: http://www.wired.com/2015/07/moussouris-wassenaar-open-comment-period/ "You Need to Speak Up For Internet Security. Right Now."

      A history of the Crypto-Wars from the 1990's, linked from Bruce Schneier's Crypto-Gram newsletter for July 2015 (the News section https://www.schneier.com/crypto-gram/archives/2015/0715.html):

      "As we're all gearing up to fight the Second Crypto War over governments' demands to be able to backdoor any cryptographic system, it pays for us to remember the history of the First Crypto War. The Open Technology Institute has written the story of those years in the mid-1990s. http://www.newamerica.org/oti/doomed-to-repea...ry-lessons-from-the-crypto-wars-of-the-1990s/ The Second Crypto War is going to be harder and nastier, and I am less optimistic that strong cryptography will win in the short term. https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2015/06/history_of_the_.html "
