Does anybody out there know what the status of the Grand Jury case against Mike Ingle is, the case involving the export to SecureDrive? I'd heard he was being investigated and all his records had been subpoenaed, with Janet Reno saying a whole new wing at Marion is being built for Zimmermann, Ingle, Karns, Hughes, and all the other cryptocriminals. And now that Defense Secretary Inman has issued that Martial Law Measure that crypto work is "born classified," the recent raids on most of the Cypherpunks seem to make more sense. And the recent progress in factoring, using the "rubber hose algorithm," has made most private cryptography moot. Me, I'm just glad I got out in '94 before they closed the borders. --Tim May, Permanent Tourist, somewhere in Cypherspace
