  Bob and Alice routinely discuss bombs, terrorism, tax cheating, sexual
  infidelity, and deviant sex over the internet.  They conspire to commit
  crimes, share banned texts and suppressed news, or topple tyrannical
  governments whose agents eavesdrop on their every communication.  They
  do all this with utmost secrecy and unbreakable codes.

  However, Alice and Bob do not even trust each other.

  A protocol designer then, is someone who does not think that Alice
  and Bob are insane.

Who was it that said that protocol analysis is essentially formalized paranoia?
