Can any of you, most of whom I do not doubt are far more knowledgeable
   about cryptography and how it's conceptualised within the legal sphere,
   offer some insight regarding this?

   The claim is that Judge Loretta A. Preska, who sentenced Jeremy Hammond
   today, said that for the three years (post-release) that he was to
   spend under supervision, he will not be able to use encryption for
   communication or storage purposes(!) which is practically a legal edict
   to go and build a cabin by Walden Pond. How can this be considered
   anything but cruel and unusual?
