Indeed.
And what I'm getting at is that there are people in the
'security' industry who either consider politicians and the
state to be a 'necessary evil', or worse, think that politicians
and the political system they serve, are A Good Thing.
In a nearby mailing list, there are a bunch of people who are
funded by the american military(psycho killers) to create a so
called 'anomity network'. Regardless of how good they are at
writing code, their political beliefs are sick garbage. They
operate on the laughable premise that they are the 'good guys'
Same people who, when called out on the source of their
funding have one argument : "you're a tinfoil conspiracy
theorist!" (Wait, of course, that's not an argument, just
puerile name-calling)
So, I didn't mean that politicians are above engineers. I mean
that political beliefs and understanding of political theory
are more important than crypto knowledge.
When a guy comes along quoting thomas jefferson and the like,
rest assured he's part of the problem.
