So are you trying to suggest compression is not as secure as
encryption? Have you even *read* the RFC in question?
The design goal of most compression algorithms is that *anybody*
can take
the compressed data and get back the original. The design goal of
most
encryption is that *only the intended recipient* can decrypt and
get the
original data back.
