(Seven days, versus the past couple of years of obvious trends. It doesn't take much neural processing to see that their sudden re-focussing on some bullshit product like "cookie management" is a response to the new climate of fear.) I'm surprised there has been little discussion (any discussion?) of the NAI decision this past week to lay off 250 of the 300 PGP employees (*) and to either sell the division to someone or abandon it completely. (* As with ZKS and their couple of hundred employees, just how are 300 PGP employees justified? As the comments on Slashdot point out, just how the hell does a product which has been evolving _very_ slowly conceivably justify 250-300 employees? DilbertWorld, obviously.) > http://www.cnn.com/2001/WORLD/americas/10/15/rec.attack.canada.reut/index. > html > > OTTAWA, Oct 15 (Reuters) -- Canada unveiled a sweeping security bill on > Monday to ban fund-raising by terrorist groups, widen wiretapping > authority and allow police to make preventive arrests of people they > think > will engage in terrorism. Which, by the way, is _precisely_ the scenario I presented to Austin and Hammie in the late fall of 1998 when we met in Menlo Park. What are you going to do, I asked, when the RCMP says that a terrorist has hijacked the Queen's plane and ZKS is being ordered to reveal the mapping of identities? Can't do it, you say? Fine, then you're out of business as of right now. The notion of a central service, located in a known location and subject to some nation's laws, is ludicrous. ZKS founders said that they Canada was a "crypto haven" compared to the U.S., indicating deep confusion about just what it was Canada was more liberal about (export laws) and what it was Canada was more repressive about (nearly everything else). Most importantly of all, Canada is a second cousin to the U.S. and does what it is told to do, with no constitutional niceties. So, NAI is abandoning PGP (no great loss, actually), ZKS is abandoning Freedom (ditto), and some crypto luminaries are falling all over themselves to support police state measures. And, ironically, it won't make us one whit safer. Ben was right. --Tim May, Occupied America "They that give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin, 1759.

Reason Magazine And Foundation Support Encryption Rights
by Matthew Gaylor 17 Oct '01

17 Oct '01

I want to thank both Mike Alissi, (malissi(a)reason.com) Publisher of Reason Magazine and David Nott (davidn(a)reason.org) President, Reason Foundation who each sent me a copy of Jacob Sullum's October 16, 2001 essay "Fear of Prying" <http://www.reason.com/sullum/101601.html>. Which I then sent to the subscribers of Freematt's Alerts (10,000+) and to several other mailing lists yesterday. Mr. Sullum writes: "Boston Globe columnist Cathy Young, a colleague of mine at Reason magazine, has confessed that "the idea of people being able to encrypt electronic communications so that they are beyond surveillance" has always seemed "scary" to her, "precisely because of the threat of terrorism." This is like saying that computers or telephones or airplanes or box cutters are scary. Any technology can be used for good or ill. The question is whether the potential for evil justifies restrictions on legitimate uses." And Sullum ends with: "Misuse of official records is not exactly unheard of in this country, and the problem would be magnified if every unsavory regime that has enlisted in the war on terrorism were to be trusted with the keys to its citizens' e-mail. For the dissidents Phil Zimmermann is rightly proud of helping, the whole point of encryption is to guard against official surveillance." I was somewhat surprised and disturbed that Reason would publish Cathy Young's original article that appeared first in the Boston Globe, September 19, 2001 and then on Reason Online <http://www.reason.com/cy/cy092401.html>. I think Freematt's Alerts subscriber Charles Platt <cp(a)panix.com>, the distinguished science fiction author and senior writer at WIRED Magazine had the best response when he wrote: "Bad enough that a contributing editor to Reason should indulge in the cliche-ridden handwringing of a statist apologist; far worse that these less-than-cerebral platitudes should be disseminated via an establishment publication, where Ms. Young is liable to be seen as a libertarian emissary. To Cathy Young: All systems entail risk. As has just been demonstrated, a government-run system for terrorism-prevention does not eliminate risk. It only eliminates the superficial appearance of risk. This is far more dangerous than an honest approach in which risk is recognized and individuals are encouraged to deal with it instead of running to their elected representatives and asking to be protected. "A free society is not a suicide pact"? No, it's a matter of principle, and of courage. I really think you should reconsider your political affiliations. --Charles Platt Senior Writer, Wired magazine" For better or worse Reason Magazine is viewed as a libertarian/freemarket publication. The magazine has in the last decade doubled it's circulation to over 60,000 which places it over conservative publications such as the Weekly Standard and nearly that of the liberal New Republic. See Columbus Dispatch Metro Columnist Steve Stephens's <sstephens(a)dispatch.com> October 15, 2001 column "The Voice of 'Reason' Lives In Small Ohio Town" where he interviews Reason's editor Nick Gillespie <gillespie(a)reason.com> See: <http://libpub.dispatch.com/cgi-bin/documentv1?DBLIST=cd01&DOCNUM=4493 2&TERMV=31160:11:> I'm optimistic that Reason won't lose it's way and veer away from their libertarian roots and I might add that Jacob Sullum's article is a step in the right and libertarian direction.
