While what you say is certainly true, it won't survive any kind of detailed attack. I'm all for the sentiment, but while there are so many mundane things going on round about, the best way to remain undetected is to remain undecipherable and to make sure that there is enough traffic about of the same sort. Press for encipherment of e-mail, that way, if everybody is doing it, who's to know what the underworld is doing? This is especially useful if you are not actually interested in violent revolution. You can then convince the powers that be that you are not worth monitoring.

this is dead on true. the whole problem of all this is our "transition period" until encryption is matter-of-course. and the possibility that serious opposition will actually arise to delay that day even further. once everyone does it, most of (but not all of) the special contingencies are unnecessary. what I am trying to address is how things are now, and how they may change one way, or another. and to find the best multi-solution for most of these possibilities....until that happy day you speak of. dan
