The use of PGP=>2.5 suddenly became a 'non-issue' for use in the U.S. because they use both the algorithm and sub-routines developed by the NSA and the Military.
If you have an exploit for 2.5+, publish it. Otherwise, you're just blowing FUD.
I always wonder where these people get their information. I know people who know little to nothing about cryptography, but "they know PGP has been broken".
I always wonder why there seem to be so many lame fucks on the cypherpunks list who, rather than responding to the posts on the list, seem to be responding to some broken recording going on in their own head. Naturally, these lame fucks never have a direct quote available to match the words inside their heads that they purport to place in the mouths of others. Why don't 'these people' try actually following a thread and deal with the concepts involved, rather than spouting off their auto-bot, knee-jerk responses to the voices of old wars that they are still fighting inside their heads?
