I would like to start a new thread. I want to know what the people on this list intend to do with cryptography in the "real world." There are a number of Cypherpunk projects on the drawing board or already deployed: Stego, encrypted phones, encrypted and anonymous remailers, stealth PGP, a digital bank, etc. Do the folks on this list intend to use these tools, or is your interest only theoretical?
[stuff deleted]
My interest is more than academic. I am one of the Cypherpunks involved in creating a digital bank. If the 700 or so people on this list wouldn't open an account in a digital bank, chances are no one else would either. The same goes, of course, for secure phones, encrypted e-mail, and all the rest.
If the bank provides international transfers then I would be your first customer. -=T.A.Z. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- To find out more about the anon service, send mail to help@anon.penet.fi.
