time, you understand one another, and, importantly, you trust each
other.
Well, countries have friends too. Maybe country-friends have
similar foreign and national security policies, rather than similar
hobbies. And perhaps country-friends have aligned economic
interests with their friends, rather than that time you both got
that terrible haircut you thought was so cool back then. Importantly, the countries, like you, trust their friends.

In a land before time (technologically speaking . . . so, like,
the mid-nineties), the most basic software encryption functions
were controlled under the U.S. International Traffic in Arms
Regulations. The then-current version of Netscape or
Lotus Notes (the hot tech of the era) were controlled
under the same regulatory regime as missiles and fighter jets.
