A perfectly good hour wasted with Phil Zimmermann
Philip R. Zimmermann
Phil will give an entertaining talk about technical
aspects of implementing public key crypto systems (using PGP as an
example) including some PGP war stories, its legal trevails, the
manuvering that was required through the 90's to circumvent onerous
export controls and patent obstacles and how he repelled efforts to
squash PGP. Additionally, the talk will include a question-led
discussion about PGP's history and its legal struggles where audience
participation is encouraged.
