----- Original Message ----- From: "Ian Grigg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: "PGP Encryption Proves Powerful"
> http://www.pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,110841,00.asp The article appears to use PGP simply as the most prominent example, and is clearly undereducated in the realities of cryptography. It not only says that there is little chance that it is actually PGP in use, but goes on to indicate that hackers are a magic bullet. As far as real reporting goes here, this is laughable. The article is titled "PGP Encryption Proves Powerful" then says that there's little likelihood that PGP was used. It flatly says that there are no backdoors, and that it would take millions of years to break, then hints that hiring hackers to break it would work. While the sentences individually make sense, the whole is somewhat lacking in anything resembling English.
