That was particularly interesting for me, since it quoted my former business partner -- and for the first time, didn't identify him as the head of the company we started or, more importantly, he didn't claim to be the inventor of what I created.
On the other hand, it's a bit hard to take comments about privacy seriously from somebody who did the kind of stuff he did. For one thing, he used to listen in on other peoples' conversations. Russians, that is. From submarines that snuck into Soviet harbors. When we were planning our company, we repeatedly had to tell him that no, we weren't going to even try to create Carnivore-like systems to monitor private e-mail traffic to discover social networks.
