I'm sure the creator knows why, but for some reason, he isn't talking... > For the record, I asked Caudill about getting a NSL, Caudill would only answer, "No comment." Because I reckon that's exactly what happened. Paranoid US government steps in as usual.

That's exactly how I would respond if I had failed to build a security device that lived up to its hype.

  That is reasonable. I just feel like rather than have this sort of streisand-esque effect, if that really was the case, why not just say it. If you see sites like outincrediblejourney[0] this industry relishes failure nearly as much as success. Sure it would be a ding on the ego but in the Def Con community being interdicted by the NSA on a project you were working on is probably worse than not having fort knox level security on some prototype device you were going to present.

    He'll be a martyr in the DefCon community if they think the NSA stopped him.
