Some time ago opinion was that only versions of PGP beginning with 2 were trustworthy, that is before the add-on junk for user convenience which opened holes galore, then much more vuls as it went to global market and use by governments. Is that still the case?
We have archived versions since 2.6. Are there earlier vers available, like beta and 0s? AES was allegedly rigged from the get go. The open competiton a cloak and a roladex builder of eager cryptographers looking for life-time smack feed. Those who accused the dope were allegedly given quiet access to a coke traffic choke point via NANOG and steady contractis with Companies A, B, C, D, E, F and G according to the NSA IG in 2009, and, for cover end to end cushy research grants at best of universities and national and commercial labs. Will Snowden docs confirm this or will they be meticulously redacted, withheld, photoshopped, forged, edited, hyped, destroyed in media basements, confiscated in airports, stolen in Brazil, wiped in NYT law and investment concaves, beautifully rhetorized and neutralized as consequential as the Pentagon Papers for slowing the mighty lucrative natsec machine for boosting its bastard comsec racket. Didn't you like GCHQ's vibrating paper cup shtick in Guardian's playfully rhetorizing a neutralized laptop? Reminds of why encryption is essential to combating climate change and over-population and end of class warfare and umm, erasure of religion. Shit, shit, so little time. _______________________________________________ cryptography mailing list cryptography@randombit.net http://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/cryptography
