- excuse-me 14y agoI think coming from an organisation like the IEEE it wasn't meant as a hip and trendy self-referential term
- joshuarrrr 14y agoI think the term's a bit too old to be considered hip and trendy. Did you have any specific criticisms about the way cypherpunks were represented in the article itself, or is this just a superficial complaint about the headline? As an editor at IEEE Spectrum I would say that it wasn't intended as a pejorative.
