Maybe it's been mentioned here but the book, "Chatter: Dispatches from the Secret World of Global Eavesdropping," by Patrick Radden Keefe mentions cypherpunks and a slew of people who've been around here, or discussed, cited, admired, attacked and hated here. Crypto is featured, along with the TLAs, the fools who run them, the lackies who suck their tits, the congress critters who give them a free pass no matter what fuck-ups damage the US and the unwary targets of spooks, 9/11 only one of many. It's a "lively read," and a lot of its smooth-narrative content won't be new to avid readers of disputatious, thankfully ungrammatically cpunks, but it does get the slick word out to the public in an easy to swallow fashion. For us jacket addicts, there are favorable blurbs by David Kahn and Seymour Hersh. Keefe calls John Gilmore, Duncan Campbell, and other uninstitutionalized insurgents outcasts, but IEDs are where it's at, right? He also claims the NSA is a pitiful giant, protected against change by ever increasing secrecy blessed by congress and the administration, and that most of its new hires are security guards to protect against knowing what's inside, not the personnel truly needed.
