  1. Re:Thanks Phil on Philip Zimmermann and 'Guilt' Over PGP · · Score: 1
    The Washington Post reporter wrote:

    what i did not realize was that some people would take the idea that he was feeling "guilty" would imply that he felt he did something wrong.

    It's important to understand that the criteria that mainstream news organizations use for hiring and promotion of reporters guarantees that, on average, they are very ignorant people with rather low IQs.

  2. untrue on Philip Zimmermann and 'Guilt' Over PGP · · Score: 1
    It doesn't help any to follow one falsehood with another:

    Philip R. Zimmermann, creator of PGP, was quoted in a recent Washington Post article as saying he has been "overwhelmed with feelings of guilt" about the use of PGP by suspected terrorists.

    Zimmermann was not quoted as saying that; he was characterized. The above claim is nearly as scurrilous as the article it takes to task.
