Perhaps the buy-out of PGP is a good thing. Consider that now there is a clear and present motive for Cypherpunks to start writing the next wave of world-class crypto...it really is the *only* shure way that the process doesn't get subverted...we're no longer able to rely on a single commen source of crypto tools.
Seems like a crypto module for Linux would be a good start, if there's not one already. As part of Linux, the source would stay public domain, so you could trust it. It also seems security built into the OS would be the hardest to circumvent. And finally, since Linux is free, there's no obstacle besides convenience for people on other platforms to acquire it (and it runs on several types of hardware). Thus, the crypto module could also help Linux, which is also good for keeping people in control of their computers. I'm getting to where I don't trust any program I can't see the source code of.
