MB>   IDEA cypher: guessing keys, don't bother with

You are forgetting the most effective attack:
Passphrase attack.  Although difficult,  HUGELY faster and more effective than 
any of the above.

ADDITION TO PREVIOUS MESSAGE
Oh, then of course you also have to have the secret key.  Assuming you have it 
then password attacks are the easiest.  Otherwise, you are correct.

Actually, I believe the meant *ALL* speech.  Freedom of speech means
that you talk about anything, and the government can't do anything about
it.  (*FIRE*-type things excepted for infringing on the rights of
others)
Any other interpretation gives the people in power a chance to regulate
speech.  That's exactly wha tht e founding fathers were trying to avoid.

Despite the stern warnings of the tribal elders, John Stephenson said this to 
Alan Pugh:

RSA is legal in the states, John.
If it wasn't, RSAREF couldn't be legal.
RSA is an encryption algorithm; RSAREF is a set of subroutines that implement 
RSA.
