What the hell does this have to do with cypherpunks?

Seconded, Harmon. CP has long included privacy (ie control, aka personal infosec) as a topic. And the use and abuse of wireless tracker^H^H^H^H cellphones (and what they will morph into) is a legit socio-tech topic which can draw heavily on crypto. And the other thread, s*veillance (ie reverse-panopticon) is completely on target. Again, the core idea being privacy. Something for which crypto was invented. Keep 'em coming Bob.
