No. Galileo advanced a fact and might swatted him for it, that the Earth was the center of the universe has never been a fact. There are other "facts" that simply aren't so despite consensus to the contrary.
Physics causes finance. Finance causes law. Law causes politics. Politics causes religion. Your point is?
A refresher: the EFF is suing AT&T for getting into bed with the NSA and the widespread eavesdropping that has been engaged in. Widespread encryption has been needed for quite some time, it hasn't been particularly wanted because it isn't easy or accessible. Yet.
And that, besides proving that EFF can't do much but sue, proves what, exactly? Again. You want mixmaster code. Write code. Quit whining.
Prove it. You could use a few extra million dollars, couldn't you?
Indeed. However, I'm not the one asking others to write code for free, am I?
I asked why Mixmaster software was not available for the Win32 platform. The underlying question, why fully-encrypted communications were not more widespread - you've more than amply demonstrated why.
And so did you. Thank you very much for playing. Insert quarter for new game. Cheers, RAH -- ----------------- R. A.
