Dinah PoKempner, deputy general counsel for Human Rights Watch, also discussed how encryption can save lives, while reporting that any future U. S. domestic policy will have global ramifications. The United States is traditionally in the forefront defending the freedom of expression as an international right. Any regime adopted in this country will have profound influence on what other governments do and how they justify it. We will be in a poor position to criticize abusively implemented restrictions if they are patterned on our own. A special exhibit set to open at the 1998 AAAS annual meeting in Philadelphia will commemorate the Association's 150th anniversary.
Members can help make the exhibit as accurate and engaging as possible by lending their memorabilia.
Teich, however, does not want members to limit their search. There may be things we have not thought of. If requested, AAAS will also reimburse for shipping. After the exhibit closes in September 1998, AAAS will return the memorabilia. To avoid duplication, please do not send any items without contacting AAAS first.
