I did not write this article, and while it's not about computer security it is about security. My interest in this subject was renewed after watching the TV series Jericho (watch it so it stays on the air). I thought this article was interesting enough to warrant mirroring, and it seems to jive pretty well with what I have read from other authors such as Duncan Long and Cresson H. Kearny on the subject. Please don't think I'm a paranoid, tin-foil-hat wearing freak, but I am a child of the 80's and a fan of post-apocalyptic fiction. Don't worry, my video on PGP/GPG is on its way.
