:RSA Security Releases RSA Encryption Algorithm into Public Domain : :'c = m(e) mod n' Made Available Two Weeks Early ROTFLMAO! Gee: wasn't it "public" already? CACKLE! Yours, J.A. Terranson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they should give serious consideration towards setting a better example: Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate... This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers, associates, or others.

Subject: Microsoft Press Release On Digital Signatures
Date:September 6, 2001
Microsoft announced today that all future press releases will
be signed with PGP digital signatures so that readers can verify
that they're reading genuine Microsoft press releases,
not forgeries from hackers trying to manipulate the stock price.
Microsoft's corporate PGP key 0xB9C8B513 is on the Network Associates
keyservers, and you can verify the signatures there.
Microsoft's public relations department also announced that
plans for World Domination 2.0 are ahead of schedule,
and declined to comment on Bill Gates's muttered reference to the
antitrust prosecutors as a major-league %^%*@.

Don't know. But not the problem of those issuing press releases. That
_some_ people check signatures, whether electronic or inked, and
_other_ people _don't_ doesn't lessen the significance of signing.
Those who bother to check a putative press release and find the
attached signature doesn't match what they have seen from Web sites
(and related "widely witnessed events," including hashes published in
the company's financial documents, etc.) will have competitive
advantages over those who don't bother to check and just hit the
panic button.
Sounds fair to me. Sounds like evolution in action.

GPG Slashdot discussion; Phil Z Interview
Slashdot discussion at http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=00/09/06/1653255mode=thread OctaneZ asks: "What are the relative merits and drawbacks of using Gnu Privacy Guard vs. Network Associates' PGP. I am not referring to the fact that GPG doesn't use any restricted implemtations or algorithems; or that GPG was not affected by the recent PGP hole; but other more everyday issues. How is interoperability between the two. As well as integration into common applications such as Eudora in windows and others, possibly PINE, in LINUX. Could this be deployed such that the learning curve of transitioning users from PGP to GPG is not too steep? I am a strong beleiver in encryption, and have used PGP for a very long time, however I would prefer to use an OpenSource/Non-restricted program; however the usefullness of said program, as well as the security takes precidence, at least in my book." http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=00/09/06/1916226mode=thread A reader writes "PGP's creator is participating in an online interview this week. http://forums.itworld.com/webx?14@@.ee6caf5 Phil is mainly interested in clearing the air about the recently discovered ADK bug, but the larger topics of encryption and worldwide organized snoop rings (Echelon) have already come up.

'Shoot to Kill Bill' set to pass the Senate with no safeguards
Tuesday, 5 September 2000 New ALP Sell-Out Completes Capitulation on Defence Amendment Bill 'Shoot to Kill Bill' set to pass the Senate with no safeguards The ALP today completed its capitulation to the Government by accepting new Government amendments to Defence Legislation Amendment (Aid to Civilian Authorities) Bill, Greens Senator Bob Brown said today. "The ALP has refused to accept Greens amendments that would guarantee troops could never be called out against a peaceful protest or industrial dispute," Senator Brown said. "On top of that they have watered down their already weak amendments. Previously the ALP amendment had said that once called out the troops could not be used unless there was 'a direct and immediate threat of death or serious injury'. These words have been replaced by "reasonable likelihood of death or serious injury". "Now, in a stunning overnight turnaround, the ALP has accepted a new government amendment that would allow troops to be used against civilians when there is 'serious damage to property'. This gives the government and military free reign to call out the troops because in almost every situation 'serious damage to property' could be envisaged. "This is a backflip on sell-out on back-down. Labor has failed to defend a century of law and convention in Australia which has prevented the Defence forces from being involved in armed conflict with civilians. "The bill will now pass into law with no sunset clause, and no real safeguard that would prevent troops being used on strikers and peaceful protestors Further information: Ben Oquist 02 62773170 or 0419704095 -- Ben Oquist Australian Greens Senator Bob Brown Parliament House, Canberra 2600 Australia +61 2 62773170 ph +61 2 62773185 fx 0419704095 mobile http://www.greens.org.au/bobbrown

RSA Security releases RSA algoritm into public domain two weeks early. [cpunk]
Wednesday September 6, 8:03 am Eastern Time Press Release SOURCE: RSA Security Inc. RSA Security Releases RSA Encryption Algorithm into Public Domain 'c = m(e) mod n' Made Available Two Weeks Early BEDFORD, Mass., Sept. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- RSA® Security Inc. (Nasdaq: RSAS - news) today announced it has released the RSA public key encryption algorithm into the public domain, allowing anyone to create products that incorporate their own implementation of the algorithm. This means that RSA Security has waived its rights to enforce the patent for any development activities that include the RSA algorithm occurring after September 6, 2000. Represented by the equation "c = m(e) mod n," the RSA algorithm is widely considered the standard for encryption and the core technology that secures the vast majority of the e-business conducted on the Internet. The U.S. patent for the RSA algorithm (#4,405,829, "Cryptographic Communications System And Method") was issued to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) on September 20, 1983, licensed exclusively to RSA Security and expires on September 20, 2000. "So much misinformation has been spread recently regarding the expiration of the RSA algorithm patent that we wanted to create an opportunity to state the facts," said Art Coviello, chief executive officer of RSA Security. "RSA Security's commercialization of the RSA patent helped create an entire industry of highly secure, interoperable products that are the foundation of the worldwide online economy. Releasing the RSA algorithm into the public domain now is a symbolic next step in the evolution of this market, as we believe it will cement the position of RSA encryption as the standard in all categories of wired and wireless applications and devices. RSA Security intends to continue to offer the world's premier implementation of the RSA algorithm and all other relevant encryption technologies in our RSA BSAFE® software solutions and we remain confident in our leadership in the encryption market." For nearly two decades, more than 800 companies spanning a range of global industries have turned to RSA Security as a trusted, strategic partner that can provide the proven, time-tested encryption implementations and resources designed to speed time to market. These companies, including nearly 200 so far in 2000, rely on RSA BSAFE® security software for its encryption implementation and value-added services for a broad range of B2B, B2C and wireless applications. During the past 17 years, RSA Security has incorporated the concepts represented by the RSA algorithm into its RSA BSAFE cryptographic software. The company has made continuous enhancements to the way the algorithm has been implemented, including a number of performance improvements and optimizations, not reflected in the original patent, for a wide range of software applications, operating systems and chip designs. RSA Security also is an industry leader in developing standards on the robust application of encryption technologies for solving real-world problems. These core standards, known as the Public Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS), form the underpinnings of today's most widely used communication methods. In recent years, encryption technology has taken on an entirely new level of importance in the world of business and consumer technology, and RSA Security continues to be a leader in the industry. Once the province of a small group of technologists and mathematicians, new developments have raised the profile of encryption among a broad range of audiences. Moving forward, electronic signature legislation, export regulation and the pending selection of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) all will contribute significantly to encryption playing a key role in the further expansion of e-commerce initiatives for B2B, B2C and extended enterprise applications.
