No no no... The worm/virus/trojan will replace the 'digital fingerprint' with one that identifies the originator as Hilary Valenti... or is that Jack Rosen?
Should the US prohibit the export of high-encryption software?
This is the wrong question. The right quesion is: Given that 40 bit encryption can be broken in a realively short time frame, would you feel comfortable reccomending it to your organization?
It seems clear that while the use of 40b crypto allowed recovery of useful information in this case, for protecting sensative information, it's not much better than ROT13 or XOR...
I do this too. My question is "Why aren't the logos on the screen during the commercials?" If the concept is that you want brand recognition, I would have thought that during commercials is when you want/need them most. During commercials is when I flip channels, and based on informally watching my friends, this seems to be the norm...
And rember kiddies, this is another RatBastard site that requires JavaScript if you actually want to be able to read it. Otherwise, it's black text on a blue/black backround....
Then there's the question of Links to links. Anyone want to play "Six degrees of DeCSS"? In the same vein, anyone got the time to figure out what the Degree of DeCSS to MPAA.org is? Napster to RIAA.org?

Rats! that was my idea too, only not quite. I was thinking along the lines of a program whose output would be DeCSS, but without any DeCSS source code involved - an alternate variation on the self-referential program. An alternate mucho cool hack would involve something along the lines of Ken Thompson's "Reflections on Trusting Trust" see here
