He was burned at the stake for publishing the New Testament in English in 1536, two years after Henry VIII had made himself the head of the Church of England with the Act of Supremacy. It can be reasonably argued that at that time the Crown and Church were one and the same in England, and an offense against the State Religion was an offense against the State. However, it's generally true that burning was reserved for religious offences (including witchcraft), the axe for acts against the Crown, and hanging for other criminal cases. [Just 2 years later, Henry ordered the production of an official translation into English, known as the "Great Bible"]. Peter Trei

Thermal Imaging Decision Applicable to TEMPEST?
by John Young 19 Jun '01

19 Jun '01

The Supreme Court's decision against thermal imaging appears to be applicable to TEMPEST emissions from electronic devices. And is it not a first against this most threatening vulnerability in the digital age? And long overdue. Remote acquisition of electronic emissions, say from outside a home, are not currently prohibited by law as far as I know. And the language of the thermal imaging decision makes it applicable to any technology not commonly in use. Conventional wisdom of security wizards are that the emissions are very difficult to acquire from more than a hundred yards or so, but James Bamford claims in his recent "Body of Secrets" that NSA was able to acquire leaky emissions from Russian crypto equipment 6 miles offshore Cuba in the 1960s. Advances in technology would presumbably increase that capability.
