/"Can encryption be disabled? //
//Some time ago I would have told you no, but from version 5.7.5, //*yes 
it is possible*//and below I'll explain you why I made this decision."/
...
/"Why did I decide to add an option to disable encryption? //
//A group of people pointed out to me that there may be situations where 
cryptography is not required, indeed strongly discouraged or worse off 
the law (for example when BeeBEEP traffic travels on amateur radio 
frequencies). //
//An encrypted channel can be used to maintain privacy, but in other 
cases it can be used also to hide what would not be legal to show.//
//I believe that BeeBEEP should be a tool and let people choose how to 
use it. //
//However, traffic remains within your network without external servers. //
//If you want or don't want encryption in your network, you are now free 
to choose it.///

/Here is a part of the e-mail sent to me by Den Spiess (W2DEN), an 
Assistant Emergency Coordinator of Sarasota Amateur Emergency Radio 
Service (SRQ ARES), to explain the problem./
