- Try this:
-
- The right of the people to be secure in cryptographic
- communications shall not be infringed, and no laws shall issue
- forcing the disclosure or registry of cryptographic keys. Just so
- no one misunderstands the intent, this is a complete ban on
- infringement, and shall extend to federal, state, local and all
- other arms of government.
-
- That might be airtight enough.
