Yo! I didn't write anything of the kind. Actually, this post mystifies me...even had I posted those quotations, as scary as they may be, I don't understand Anonymous' reaction to them (waitaminute...maybe I do understand...it's interesting to consider that the sender seems to have gone to some trouble to remain anonymous for a relatively banal post).
As for "the point", as a newbie here (I was an optical network engineer from 95 to recently, now on $$$-street), I wanted to raise the issue that looking at the crytpography issue "statistically" may yield conclusions that contradict a more "linear", message-by-message examination of certain issues. For instance, I would be interested to see a response from the powers that be, if a credible grass-roots push were made to encourage everyone, from children to senior citizens, to use a lite form of cryptography (yes, such as in Lotus Notes) on EVERY message they sent. Or perhaps you've all discussed this before, but the responses I've seen so far don't indicate that. >From: Anonymous <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: "Tyler Durden" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Durden lies, was: Echelon-like resources... >Date: Fri, 11 Oct 2002 18:33:46 +0200 (CEST) > >On Fri, 11 Oct 2002 10:29:53 -0400, you wrote: > > > > "War is just a racket ... something that is not what it seems to the > > majority of people.
