The Bidzos show was recorded 12/8/95 at the Commonwealth Club
in SF. It finished here at about 5:45 PM.
Only caught a piece. Jim was answering written questions about
a range of crypto and Internet security issues from the
audience.
Among other things, he says they're working on an encryption
program "closely tied to the OS of portables, to protect the
data if the machine is lost or stolen."
He also said, "don't throw tomatoes," but they're doing
something with "private key escrow" for those who want to
provide access to their encrypted material in case of death or
other emergency.
Maybe some other idle sinner saw more, or was at the realtime
tomato-chucker.
