Maybe Phil Zimmerman should come forth with new toys
for big boys that will be more valient an effort than
pgp with less a threat to his personal liberty. We
definately need some relief from constantly being
criminalized enmasse for actions from citizens of
other
nations and from control freaks who have for years
slandered us and criminalized us for actions we have
not participated in.

Yet another reason why we should develop a system
where all Internet
communications can be easily encrypted, whether
it's email, VoIP, or
whatever. It's not like it's horribly difficult now
in some cases, but
it does have its difficulties when it comes to
implementation on a large
scale.

Yes -- especially if people rely on wiretap-enabled
certificates from their 
ISPs....
