>Frankly, the more the court, or any of its officers, knows about the >CP ideology, the less sympathetic and useful they will be. This is true. Today there are very few collections of individuals that oppose government in general and that have more than 1% of intelligent, coherent, technologically savvy members. Cypherpunk MOVEMENT is one of those, and it is dangerous to the government, for the good reason. Come to think of it, I cannot recall any other MOVEMENT that comes even close to cypherpunks. Most clans that deal with arms ... I mean technology ... are mostly gadgeteers or plain cults. Cypherpunks (at least 2% of them) have a clear agenda and expertise to achieve it. Very dangerous, as we are finding out.
