Encryption Policy And Its International Impacts: A Framework For Understanding Extraterritorial Ripple Effects by Ryan Budish, Herbert Burkert. Urs Gasser. March 2, 2018.

“This paper explores the potential international ripple effects that can occur following changes to domestic encryption policies. Whether these changes take the form of a single coherent national policy or a collection of independent (or even conflicting) policies, the impacts can be unexpected and wide-ranging. This paper offers a conceptual model for how the ripple effects from national encryption policies might propagate beyond national borders. And we provide a set of factors that can help policy-makers anticipate some of the most likely ripple effects of proposed encryption policies.”
