As a visitor its a very safe, friendly, family-oriented society. But as a resident the picture is somewhat different due to a certain cliqish-ness and small-country mentality (e.g., the exclusive arrangement of Cable & Wireless). Don't get me wrong I love the place.

I called the Arkansas State Police, 501-221-8200, to try to verify this, and they're "going to have somebody call me back." I'm not holding my breath...

Virus
by Jim Choate 17 Dec '03

Hi all, Check out, Virus Bill Buchanan ISBN 0-515-12011-1 $6.50 paperback Very interesting book about adaptive technology and one possible 'alternate' future. May not be technicaly correct but then again, what prediction is. On a related note (at least future tech predictions), I saw the new book put out by Wired on this issue (don't remember the exact title) in the science section of BookStop. It belongs in the sci-fi section. A bigger pile of wishfull thinking with no realistic view of either technology or society doesn't come to mind immediately. Is definately not a 'buy it'. "For a succesful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature will not be fooled."

Bellsouth DCS System..Any thoughts
by Mixmaster 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Comrades....and associates Has anyone had any experience in verifying the encryption scheme used in Bellsouth Mobility DCS system. Apparently, the system utilizes a signal from 1,850 - 1,925 mhz, and the the signal is encrypted there after. I've been told that no one has been able to decifer a conversation as of yet. Also, has anyone been able to view or alter the contents on the smartcard within the phone...... All suggestion will be analyzed carefully at discretion Thanks in advance....... Antonio Montana....

I don't think there is one. The first software patent was Dennis Ritchie's patent on setUID. Computer security is one area that, if you're going to allow patents on software at all (which I think are a bad idea, but that's politics), are likely to yield novel processes that will benefit the public if they're published. If you want an "innocent" explanation, it's that computers were finally starting to be affordable enough and software to be portable enough that there was a software market developing, and therefore there was money to be made (or stolen.) Before the mid-70s, there wasn't really much software that wasn't either obvious to a skilled practitioner (hence non-patentable), or else intimately tied to tweaky little details of some hardware product, where the hardware is patentable and the manufacturer is perfectly _happy_ to have everybody write non-portable code that locks you into using a FooBar 9000, while letting them claim that this code lets you run your applications 99.44% faster on the 9000 than on an IBM. And most early software patent applications _did_ include descriptions of some tweaky hardware implementation to make them fit better into the Patent Office mindset. Of course, the Patent Office, which didn't hire "software engineers" for a long time, had entirely no clue about what was obvious to skilled practitioners, so they've let all kinds of things be patented that were widely used in the trade, like XOR cursors and online commerce. But that's a flame for another newsgroup. >It also ignores the strong likelihood that the reason for the Patent-Office >policy change (done, apparently, without benefit of a corresponding law >change) was because with public-key/RSA there was finally an example of >software the government wished to deny to the average citizen, >and the only mechanism (short of secrecy, which was broken) to do so >was to patent it. D,H,R,S, and A didn't _have_ to apply for patents.... With hardware security products, the NSA has the power to seize and classify systems which are applying for patents, for no particularly good reason, and they used to do it often. For instance, there was an analog scrambler for CB radios that got its patent applications seized in about 1980. And most software patent applications for crypto have involved machinations to avoid getting trapped by this, like publishing in foreign journals before submitting applications. # Thanks; Bill # Bill Stewart, +1-415-442-2215 stewarts(a)ix.netcom.com # You can get PGP outside the US at ftp.ox.ac.uk/pub/crypto/pgp # (If this is a mailing list, please Cc: me on replies.

Actually, it's less obvious than that :-) The only way to get a security rating of B2 or above (or even D or above) is to submit your operating system for rating by the NCSC, which is a long, expensive process even for C2. By the time you get to B2, you're dealing with products that may have real-world uses but are primarily designed specifically for the military market. One of the sensitivities, besides keeping Scary Foreigners from getting Real Operating Systems, is that it makes it easier for the Scary Foreigners to look for any bugs the NCSC may have missed and understand any other weaknesses that the products may have which would let them break into US Military or Intelligence Agency systems. # Thanks; Bill # Bill Stewart, +1-415-442-2215 stewarts(a)ix.netcom.com # You can get PGP outside the US at ftp.ox.ac.uk/pub/crypto/pgp # (If this is a mailing list, please Cc: me on replies.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- For those who may doubt my oft repeated prediction that coercive institutions will slowly dissolve into market institutions please note that next week New York State is having a Sales Tax "sale." All clothing purchases under $500 will be free of sales tax next week. That's 8.25% in New York City. Since CT and NJ don't tax most clothing sales this is clearly an attempt to meet the competition. Also for those who might like to become international fugitive financiers some day (like Marc Rich) see the business section of today's New York Times: January 16, 1997 Fugitive Financiers Find Fewer Places to Hide By PETER TRUELL Currently at: http://www.nytimes.com/yr/mo/day/news/financial/fugitive-financiers.html "To improve the Justice Department's record for capturing big-time fugitives, Attorney General Janet Reno last month started an interagency fugitive alert service, in conjunction with the United States Information Agency and the Voice of America. The effort includes a site on the World Wide Web (http://www.usdoj.gov/criminal/oiafug/fugitives.htm) showing pictures of the most wanted fugitives."

I'm guessing that it's probably illegal because the police use them for "secret" conversations, or some such silliness, and don't want Bad Guys to be able to eavesdrop on what's probably a trivially analog-scrambled phone-garbler. Perhaps them good ol' boys have some more devious reason, or even have a law backing them up, but probably not. How soon do you think it'll be before they start busting people for Radio Shack Equipment Smuggling? Why, next thing you know there'll be people sneakin' across the border from Texarkana with pickmeup-truck loads full o' contraband encryption gear as well as the usual Lone Star Beer cans in the back. If I were Radio Shack, and the state did this to me after the police bought a bunch of them for police use, I'd be real upset. # Thanks; Bill # Bill Stewart, +1-415-442-2215 stewarts(a)ix.netcom.com # You can get PGP outside the US at ftp.ox.ac.uk/pub/crypto/pgp # (If this is a mailing list, please Cc: me on replies.
