I guess we agree mostly, but you also stated this: "If a law against
cyrptography will not stop the bad guys from using it..."

This "if" is what I have trouble either accepting or refuting.  I just don't
know.  But I am not by any means convinced that laws plus enforcement plus
pressure on countries such as Germany fail to hinder criminals.
