So it seems there may be one country in the world worse than the UK (for
now).

Cheers,

Ben.

Dutch government puts Trusted Third Parties under pressure  

Jelle van Buuren   08.05.2001  

Intelligence agencies and police want to get access to encrypted 
messages  

Dutch law enforcement authorities are forcing Trusted Third Parties 
(TTP's) to use key escrow or key recovery techniques, which make it 
possible for law enforcement to decrypt encrypted messages. The law 
enforcement authorities want to get access to encrypted Internet 
messages, according to secret documents revealed by the Dutch digital 
rights movement  Bits of Freedom.  

Trusted Third Parties (TTP's) are independent organisations, which 
offer services to enhance the security and reliability of electronic 
communication. TTP's, for instance banks, accountants, 
telecommunication companies or public notaries, use cryptography to 
prove the authenticity of communication and secure the 
confidentiality of communication.
