Oh, then you'd be reformed cypherpunk. The orthodoxy is that the group has no head (an arch).
Well, Duh...no "Alpha Cat" of course. But if you're able to reverse-scam someone or get some Qwality 'tang, then I won't cock-block you if you declare yourself Cypherpunk leader to an outside party, so long as you have zero expectations that the idea of a Cypherpunk 'leader' will have any practical effect on my actions.
and governments
Well, shit Variola. Here's where I can tell you haven't gotten laid in a while. The 'release' was basically a gag...couched in Amerikan Rhetoric it was actually stating precisely this (eg..."even terrorist cells operating inside the DC Beltway..."). Done properly, the idea would be to have it go down the sheeple's throat nice-n-smooth like, see, until they get to the end and experience some dim glimmer of recognition as they realize who the real terrorists are. And by then it's too late...the sheeple has swallowed a 'poison pill' gaurunteed (Officially, by Cypherpunks, or your money back) to convert them one day into a little, tiny sleeper cell.
Forget turbans, real terrorists wear neckties.
And don't forget those little American Flag lapel pins...the "mark of the beast"?
