Putting encryption software on a CD and mailing it to someone you don't know
could be the first step in violating a federal law in some places on this
planet. The person receiving the CD could forward it to a country that is
restricted from such software by the sender's country, making the original
sender a possible conspirator in this scenario. The US has laws regarding
the export of encryption software. Other countries may have similar laws. I
believe that officials in these countries are more prepared to follow up on
such transgressions than in the recent past. A sincere act to help could
backfire. Ignorance is no defense in these matters.
