	So, how effective have your crypto techniques and tools been
	against the state? 

	And what is stoping you from discussing crypto? Rhetorical
	question of course. The answer is, you and others can discuss
	whatever you want and ignore whatever posters you want to
	ignore. It's not like the list has a 100kb quota per day that's
	all being used up by 'off topic' posts.

	Is that supposed to mean : only 'abuses' of power are a
	problem, not power per se? I've seen a fair amount of
	people in this list trying to 'argue' that government is
	great as long as 'we the right people' are in power. In turn I
	could ask, how can ANYONE on cypherpunks pretend that ANY 
	government can be a legitimate institution.

	"Don't get me wrong", I would love to have secure computing and
	telecom platforms, but it's painfully obvious that in the last
	20 years we've moved in the exact opposite direction. Now the
	hardware comes compromised. "out of the box". And that's not
	because of off-topic posts to the cpunks mailing list.
