context: forgot to mention overriding hypothesis that state of
insecure crypto - as with nukes - may be price of peace for
cold war reunification in improved framework, thus structural
duplicity has wider impact than inside states alone, could
also bridge state-state secure relations in parallel with those
that are insecure, allowing for advanced governing relations;

in this way, broken crypto could represent deeper truth of
the inside condition than what is able to be written about,

yet exists as consciousness for those in the industry, etc,
given what perspective, parameters, values, in the deception

The Internet is not controlled, i.e., there is a power vacuum
that will soon be filled. There are many, many players and soon
to be more. The question to be contemplated, if any, is this:
Do you prefer that the competing claims of control over the
Internet be resolved by way of (1) dramatic Balkanization or
by way of (2) making the Internet an organ of world government?

A thought experiment, if needing one: is VoIP a part of the
Internet or is it not, that is do you have two networks in your
home/office or one?
