It's a pretty sad statement of how poorly this list is functioning when the RC2 source can be publically released but people would rather sling mud over glorified keystroke trappers and rant about Nazi deathcamps.
Our friends at the NSA must be pleased with the slow death of this group.
Sadly, Bofur.
Well, Bofur, the alleged RC2 code is, at most, "just another cipher." The issue of the Germans disconnecting from parts of the Net, as a means of pressuring sites to get material removed, and the bypasses (such as proxies and mirror sites at CMU, MIT, and Stanford), is just as important, if not more so. In any case, Bofur, if you want to talk about RC2, talk about it. Nobody's stopping you. --Tim Boycott espionage-enabled software!
