Sovereignty issues and Palladium/TCPA
It looks like Palladium (or whatever it's called this week) is of concern not just to individuals but to governments as well (the following text forwarded from elsewhere): -- Snip -- Governments would want to explore the implications of the use and retention of government-held information and use of software for government business. More particularly, governments are likely to want to explore the issues related to potential foreign control/influence over domestic governmental use/access to domestic government held data. In other words, what are the practical and policy implications for a government if a party external to the government may have the potential power to turn off our access to its own information and that of its citizens. -- Snip -- Unlike China, not everyone can address this problem by building their own systems from the silicon on up.

Agent Subversion Kit 72a.v2 (This Phone Is Tapped) The first in what will be a continuing series, this tidy little unit contains everything one needs to get one's subversive-action groove on-gloss sticker front with four stickers, and a printed back with application instructions, among other things. Made to be deployed on payphones across the world, the stickers fit precisely on the back handle of the telephone receiver.

-Mensagem original- De: Anton Stiglic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Enviada em: sexta-feira, 31 de janeiro de 2003 16:50 Para: Mads Rasmussen Assunto: Re: Request: review of new Cryptanalysis book There was a small thread on sci.crypt http://groups.google.ca/groups?hl=enlr=ie=UTF-8oe=UTF- 8threadm=3C01F24E.89E065AC%40compuserve.comrnum=1prev=/groups%3Fq%3D sci.crypt%2BWagstaff%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26oe%3DUTF-8%26sel m%3D3C01F24E.89E065AC%2540compuserve.com%26rnum%3D1 (the URL will probably break up, just stick everything together). The only relevant reply was a speculative one by Molnar. Thanks Anton, This description refers to a published contents index of the book that the author published online (CRC press) long before the book was published. The comment by Molnar, however, might still be valid. That's why a review would be nice :) Mads - The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending unsubscribe cryptography to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
