happening in the crypto world. Not new algorithms or anything like that – but maybe, finally, the ball is rolling towards a much wider implementation of public key crypto. The latest is that an Irish company called Baltimore is offering its toolkit for free. This is exactly what’s needed – the first step in all of this is not technological (that one’s already been taken) but cultural. People have to get comfortable using secure communications – both conceptually and practically.

I wonder if Zero Knowledge is paying attention. I hope so.
