On the below "conspiracy theory" comment: Aren't "conspiracy theory" and "conspiracy theorist" now used as catch-all (and derogatory) terms by mainstream afictionados to identify persons and orgs they consider to be enemies of the statist point of view? Remember the last election when Mr. Paraniod (Perot) was running, and newspeople were using the term "conspiracy buff", then, when reminded that the mainstream folks have their own sacred conspiracies which they milk much money from, they (the newspeople) switched to "conspiracy theorist" instead. I have to laugh when Bugliosi gets on TV ranting about how "there couldn't possibly be a conspiracy in the OJ murders", but how easy one forgets, Bugliosi gained his lasting fame from a ridiculous (seemingly) theory about "Helter Skelter", etc. Roy M.

True, but somehow I have a feeling that Alphacipher is not a one-time pad, and thus is breakable.
This assumption is not true. ALPHACIPHER is, indeed, based upon an OTP. We've solved all of the problems associated with pad creation, distribution, packaging and many other concerns that have previously limited the use of a cipher in this class.
Their web page alludes to a OTP-like operation where you have to purchase key "refills". It doesn't say where they store the escrowed copies of the key material.

I recommend this page, if only for the great conspiracy theory about automated telephone line scanning. - -- Roy M. Silvernail [ ] roy@scytale.com PGP Public Key fingerprint = 31 86 EC B9 DB 76 A7 54 13 0B 6A 6B CC 09 18 B6 Key available from pubkey@scytale.com
