Jim Gillogly asked FBI Dir. Freeh:

>Q: Does the Bureau favor making escrowed keys mandatory for domestic
>   encryption?

And FBI Dir. Freeh replied:

>A: Not at this time.  We hope that voluntary compliance and cooperation
>   from industry will result in companies developing a single system for
>   export and for domestic use.  If this does not happen, then we will
>   need to take further action.
