Definitely a deal with the Devil. Given that we're talking about IBM, not Lotus none of this surprises me given IBM's Lucifer/DES history with spook input years ago. Then again to be fair, I don't know if the 40+24 deal was cooked up before or after the IBM/Lotus merger.

Lucifer wasn't any stronger thatn DES. Please learn a bit about the history of how DES was developed and what attacks it was built to withstand. The story is all 100% public at this point. Perry
