So over at http://www.44con.com/ we have a problem in that 44Con is in London during 2012. We have no sport as far as I'm aware (unless shooting speakers with high volume nerf weaponry counts) but with the changes in the law we have to be

GCHQ had public key cryptography in the early 1970s, a few years before Diffie-Helman and RSA did their work. While I think it'd be difficult to hide properly functional quantum computing (given the amount of interaction between public and

Hi, I'm one part of http://www.44con.com/ and having run quite a few events in London would be happy to help out where I can. It might be worth at least meeting up for a chat to see what you want to do and bounce a few ideas around. My co

Not if you're going to court. There's a whole secret inquest thing that's been going on, occasionally popping up in the news. The problem with relying upon intelligence for evidential purposes is that you can often expose the handlers, asse
