[nycbug-talk] Crypto Anarchy

[Mark Saad]

All
  I was rereading Tim May's Crypto Anarchy manifesto  1. While still relevant today there are a few things that date his work and I wonder if anyone could comment on them.  He mentions Ku-Band transmitters , I assume he is talking about satalite  microwave based communication but what system , is there or was there some form of this available to common users or just governments ?  Also tamper-proof boxes , is he referring to hardware or the concept of say tar'ng up a file encrypting it and signing it ? 

 In any case I wonder what today's readers take away from this text .
