Re: Interesting point about the declassified Capstone spec

[habs]

I've always thought that the unique id built into each device and
available to Law Enforcement (LE) without court order would give LE
huge leap forward in traffic analyses.

In other-words, all the digital messages from various capstone devices
could work their way around the world and LE would have a digitally
signed ID that they can use to tell who is talking to who. IHMO, that
is often more important then knowing what is in the message.
