LOL. Nothing new here. NAI has been dutifully sending cease-and-desist letters to the well-known PGP mirror site for years. The mirror sites just as dutifully have tossed said notices into the trash can upon receipt. This has been going on for over 5 years. Most likely, this Peter Beruk is new at his job, has not yet figured out that C-level management at NAI wants copies of PGP floating about the Net, but needs to of course protect their trademarks and copyrights by dutifully sending letters which then in turn will be ignored. So while this Beruk guy is supposed to send out those letters, he isn't actually supposed to do anything that takes down the sites. Again, I suspect he is just new at his job. He'll figure it out in due time. --Lucky
