Squawking on a mailing list is protected behavior, and I figure you can probably do that all you want. As someone else here pointed out, "You have to do something else" before they can arrest you. But now that certain types of code have been criminalized, writing code counts as "something else". So the lesson is, if you squawk on mailing lists, don't write code. If you write code, don't squawk on mailing lists, especially about the illegitimate uses to which criminals may put your code. So we each must come to our own decision; write code, or continue to squawk? Because cypherpunks, unless they want to join the canarypunks, don't write code anymore. My decision is made. Goodbye. This list wasn't a good coding resource anyway; maybe I'll check out perrypunks or something. Happy squawking. And in response to the inevitable "don't let the door hit your ass on the way out", here's my response in advance: Don't let them slam the jail doors on your dicks, I hear that hurts like a sonofabitch.
