Feds put heat on Web firms for master encryption keys
Whether the FBI and NSA have the legal authority to obtain the master keys that companies use for Web encryption remains an open question, but it hasn't stopped the U.S. government from trying.
The U.S. government has attempted to obtain the master encryption keys that Internet companies use to shield millions of users' private Web communications from eavesdropping.
These demands for master encryption keys, which have not been disclosed previously, represent a technological escalation in the clandestine methods that the FBI and the National Security Agency employ when conducting electronic surveillance against Internet users.

Wegen eines mutmaßlichen Geheimvertrages zwischen den US-Geheimdiensten CIA bzw. NSA und dem österreichischen Heeresnachrichtenamt (HNA oder HNaA) hat der Grüne Parlamentarier Peter Pilz Strafanzeige bei der Staatsanwaltschaft Wien eingebracht.
