Does FreeBSD 11 Encryption during the installation process is strong enough match the OpenBSD Encryption for International users not US users or are there any different version for International users for legal purpose.
FreeBSD(DragonFly) and NetBSD being located in the U.S. are subject to U.S. export encryption restrictions/laws/regulations. That is one of the principal reasons OpenBSD is located in Canada which has no similar export restriction laws when it comes to cryptography. Typically once OpenBSD code is put on one of U.S. mirrors it should not be taken out of the country unless you want to deal with authorities. Historically NetBSD and FreeBSD used to be shipped stripped down versions for non-U.S. users. That is also one of the reasons you have MIT and Heimdal (Sweden) implementation of Kerberos protocol.Does FreeBSD 11 Encryption during the installation process is strong enough match the OpenBSD Encryption for International users not US users or are there any different version for International users for legal purpose.

AFAIK Microsoft is getting around the issue by having Windows compiled in Ireland, not in the U.S. Correct me if I am wrong.Does that have any bearing on the strength of encryption in FreeBSD, or any other US based OS, today though? All operating systems ship with high grade encryption software these days, including Windows & macOS that are heavily US based. iOS devices encrypt everything with a hardware locked key by default even without enabling it.
That doesn't add up. DES is an encryption scheme, MD5 is a hash. You're probably referring to the 128 bit vs. 40 bit restriction of 3DES for SSL.I know there was a restriction previously that is why DES was dropped for international users in favor of MD5.

You may want to edit s/Kerbers/Kerberos/ in your valuable post so that origin Sweden becomes true.
Because of the strong encryption, I believe that non-US users are not to download from US-based sites due to export restrictions, and doing so can get the maintainers of the site in legal trouble.
