For instance, NO medical information can be transmitted in the clear (HIPAA regulations have severe penalties for doing so) - which eliminates ham radio for transmitting this information (encryption not allowed). Whoa, that is an ultra Broad Statement, and not supported by Part 97 Rules. There was published a very compelling White Paper on Part 97 Encryption Policy last Fall, that has generated some interest. I sent a copy to a few "Friends" at FCC HQ, from the Old Days, and got some very interesting replies, that though UnOfficial, tend to lead me to believe that the White Paper is Spot On.... Maybe Phil, could expound on the issue, a bit more as He was, is, a Comms Lawyer, previously with the Commission.
