Full Details of My Attempted Entrapment For Teaching Polygraph Countermeasures

Posted by timothy on from the we-control-the-vertical-graph dept.

George Maschke writes "In May of this year, I was the target of an attempted entrapment, evidently in connection with material support for terrorism. Marisa Taylor of McClatchy reported briefly on this in August. I've now published a full public accounting, including the raw source of the e-mails received and the IP addresses involved. Comments from Slashdot readers more technically savvy than I are welcome."

    The way I see it, no one would be using encryption nowadays if Obama managed to be president in the nineties.

    Not before 1997, according to the age rules in the constitution. Since Obama was born in August 1961, this limits his eligibility for presidency to August 1996 onwards, which effectively means January 1997 onwards due to the schedule of presidencies in the US.

    I know I'm going to some sort of hell for trolls for posting this, but... couldn't he have just faked up his birth certificate with an earlier date on it?

    If you're living in the 40s, that means avoid learning about integration.

    Derivatives are fine, though.
