No, it's not USA. New Yugoslav Anti-Terrorist Law (so unimaginative) dispenses 3+ years mandatory prison sentences for: - possesion of texts in any form, including electronic, that advocate endangering of the constitutional order (as defined by the gov., I guess). Add 2 years if texts came from abroad. So ability to scramble bits can significantly enhance 3 years of one's life. Ability to hide the origin of the data adds 2 years of comfort. I think that this is the best metric for the value of crypto that I ran into so far. Ineteresting consequence is that encryption is 50% more important than anonymity.
