What I remember is that Gore was tasked with putting pressure on Gates et al, to give the govt a backdoor key to their encryption. Not much was ever said about this... but the "Netscape problem" went away shortly there after.
Perhaps Gore was going to say "I took the initiative in creating the Internet insecurity" . ..but then decided to truncate the sentence for national security reasons.
--thats the best bene'o'doubt I give him.
