"All technology is military technology." In what sense? Would you care to elaborate on that?

  It means use whatever technology you need in order to get the job done.

    I took it to mean that most technologies seem to be applied to military use first, before they find civilian use. Radar? First a weapon, then civilian. Nuclear power? First a weapon, then adapted for peaceful purposes. The list goes on: radio, flying, submarines, even the internet was developed with military funding.

      Let's add cryptography to that list.

        All technologies, regardless of their origin, have a potential military application.
