Sure. But to what extent can you collaborate without a)approaching full- blown collusion or b) getting taken for a ride in spite of your best efforts?
When you talk about "collaborating" and ZKS selling beta software to the NSA, are you saying you've got information that ZKS gave the NSA access to more information than the general public got, and/or that the NSA got their access or information meaningfully earlier than the general public? If that's the case, that's interesting, but that's too serious a claim to let pass by as an unstated implication. If that's not the case - and they had the same access to the Freedom beta code that the rest of us outsiders/Cypherpunks/critics/commentators did - then I don't see an issue here. -- Greg Broiles gbroiles@well.com "We have found and closed the thing you watch us with." -- New Delhi street kids
