Next rage might well be "vanity" PGP keys. While at the moment it is not known how to create a specific match key to a sequence, if you generate enough keys, there will be some interesting sequences found. Possibly some PGP signatures will even be in violation of the CDA (now that should start a rush 8*). That's not quite correct. The part about it not being known, I mean. I created a key: Type bits/keyID Date User ID sec 1024/DEADBEEF 1995/09/28 Prime Rib Lovers sig DEADBEEF Prime Rib Lovers (note: DEADBEEF seems about the most interesting 8-character hex word -- CAFE doesn't seem to go with anything...) And Christopher Drake (http://pobox.com/~netsafe) has mailed out a key which has a company advertisement in its ASCII armor. Hmmm. I thought I kept it around, but I can't find it. Ahhh. There it is. -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: 2.6.i mQCNAjD/mQAAAAEEAP/////NetSafe+PGP+key////We+provide+inexpensive AntiFraud/theft+etc+Security+Software5tGfKREuINIWsQqsLNS+uAneN9M SuMu37f+NU/U2djtxE/b9h4bJ4wb8h3QkBiuTAS1QjpxpxryQzZ10zzGQe8VAAUR tChDaHJpc3RvcGhlciBOLiBEcmFrZSA8TmV0U2FmZUBQb2JveC5jb20+ =SGC/ -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Type bits/keyID Date User ID pub 1024/C641EF15 1996/01/19 Christopher N.
