How does this latest development change the picture? If there is no
Hollings bill, does this mean that Trusted Computing will be voluntary,
as its proponents have always claimed? And if we no longer have such
a threat of a mandated Trusted Computing technology, how bad is it for
the system
I was browsing some of my old mail when I came across this. What's the
status of Gilmore's case?
The regulations I'm challenging purport to require air and train
travelers to show a government issued ID. Every traveler has been
subjected to these requirements, but it turns out that they

It reminds me of an even better way for a word processor company to make
money: just scramble all your documents, then demand ONE MILLION DOLLARS

to publicly take a position in opposition to such a famous and respected
figure.

Or is there something we should be doing to get RedHat, and Debian, and
other US-based distributions to include it?
Absolutely. It's already pretty secure. We should just make it
trivial to install, automatic, transparent, self-configuring,
painless to administer, and free of serious bugs.

PS: Of course, the only software worth wasting your time on comes from
those macho dudes of the U.S. of A. Those furriners don't even know
how to speek the lingua proper, let alone write solid buggy code like
FreeS/WAN occupies a position very rarely found in efficient markets,
such as open source software. While the position is rarely encountered,
it can nonetheless exist: I believe that FreeS/WAN is a natural
monopoly.

But for whatever reasons, FreeS/WAN has been holding such a natural
Just because it is public DOES mean it's declassified. There are
Supreme Court cases on this. If the government can recover all the
copies, then it can REclassify it. But if it can't, then the document
is not classified.

Much of the hysteria regarding the DMCA's supposed ability to quash free
