I believe Mr. Weitzner referred to this endless, pointless qualities
of this so-called discussion, not the principles and bases behind them.
FYI, you might be interested to know that only in a dictatorship are
people so damned *arrogant* as to assume that they have the right or power
to prevent someone from freely expressing an opinion that a discussion on
the principles and basis that an organizations stands *stupid*. But I
suppose that's neither here nor there.

"In a Time/CNN poll of 1,000 Americans conducted last week by Yankelovich
Partners, two-thirds said it was more important to protect the privacy of
phone calls than to preserve the ability of police to conduct wiretaps.
When informed about the Clipper Chip, 80% said they opposed it."
