My question was, "How should we permit privacy tools to be circumvented?" His answer was, "You can try - someone might have used a weak password, wrote it down somewhere or made another mistake. Or can be pressured into telling it (the famous $5 wrench comes to mind here)." If I ask "how should we permit privacy tools to be circumvented?" and someone's answer is "Pressure them. A wrench comes to mind," well... I've received an answer to how the person believes governments should be permitted to obtain secrets. It's not a very good one. > It's very difficult for me not to consider you a troll if you keep > using these cheap rhetorical tricks. Consider me what you will. Couldn't care less, myself. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
