Phil Zimmermann, quoted in S.F. Chronicle, Aug. 21, 1996, p. A-5:


	"'If we set up a system that is optimized for surveillance, this
	government may not and probably won't use it,' Zimmermann said. 
	'But then another government comes to power, one that sees the 
	potential to use their 'keys' to destroy their opponents. It 
	could be the last government we ever elect.'"
