- chmars 12y agoSlide 23. BTW: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/23_Enigma https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/23_Enigma
- awakened 12y agoI do not see the request from the government to remove the slide. Did I miss something? Maybe they decided to just remove the slide on their own?
- drzaiusapelord 12y agoContext anyone?
- joyeuse6701 12y agoThings are getting spooky.
- tomp 12y ago> getting Not really. Judging from the URL, this is 2010.
- ianphughes 12y agoI must be missing something? This doesnt seem new.

- tylerfisher 12y agoMaybe "removed at the request of U.S. government" is referring to any sort of information about existing encrypted volumes displayed on slide 23. Since there's no context, you can't really infer what this is all about.
- davidcollantes 12y ago"TruCrypt?" Odd.
- chmars 12y agoTrueCrypt is often misspelled, another example can be found at https://tails.boum.org/blueprint/replace_truecrypt/ https://tails.boum.org/blueprint/replace_truecrypt/.
- dsl 12y agoThis was most likely a joke, which now seems scary due to observational bias.
- mikeash 12y agoIndeed. The most obvious interpretation of the slide, in context, is "this product is so great it should be illegal, hahahahaha."
