If someone (anyone) specifies a certain algorithm at management level, they can and should use TLS. And, that especially applies to the banks in Russia... The notion that someone is both specifying TCPINC and specifying algorithm suite XXX appears too constructed to get much credence. iang ps; The argument doesn't apply generally either: a. We here are far better placed to choose the Internet's crypto suite for the general case than any manager, committee, or sysadm. b. If the Russians don't trust it, they are entirely at liberty to write their own crypto protocol and back-fit it into their software. It's not that hard, and if they care - which they do for natsec - they'll be backfitting software anyway. c. the deployment argument wins over for the banks. d. Unlike the WB/IMF/UN, IETF isn't a subsidy organisation to deliver solutions to governments. It delivers to the masses, not any particular squeaky wheel. e. etc...
