> Is C really "pure noise" if you can get A back out of it?

If you throw out B, then there's no possible way to get A out of C (short of blindly guessing what A is): that's one of the properties of a one-time pad.

But distributing both B and C is no different than distributing A in two parts, and I'd have a hard time imagining it would be treated any differently on a legal level.
