Hi, Tim, I'm glad that you have a bout of lucidity. The government essentially won the crypto battle, marginalizing crypto proponents, quietly getting media and corporations under control when crypto is concerned, and generally rising the stakes. Those of you who have access to corporate product development documents that relate to communications know what I am talking about. CALEA etcl. It's there, it's real and I think that about 5-10% of development resources are taken by it. Most cypherpunks were relatively highly paid engineers with comfortable lives and some time on their hands, so while crypto was fashionable it was cool to hang out at meetings and have pipe dreams about taking on the state. Even then, scum like del Torto started to bank ahead and sell to the "freedom fighters" and "good cops". But then it got much worse. After the WTC theater, being present at essentially anti-state meetings was not considered totally benign. And also the salaries were gone, so this beer and TV Saturday alternative suddenly stopped being alternative at all. So we're back to the fact that highly paid engineers in crypto field are really not automatically revolutionaries. On the contrary. There are very few in the general population that are cut to be true dissenters and act upon it. Now this age brings in the additional requirement: they have to also be decent engineers. As a result, there are very few left.
