That’s a good start, but does it really do enough?

People who “should know better” that have disagreed with me about standards and 
practices, must also be working for the NSA, and so need to be shunned. Bruce 
Schneier is clearly wrong about MAC-then-Encrypt and is someone who really 
should know better, so we need to treat him as an NSA stooge.

Fortunately, there is a group of girls from near Salem MA who are blessed with 
the ability to spot such people. We need to take them around into various 
development communities and working groups to identify those working for the 
Evil One.

Obviously, we should insist on due process for the NSA stooges. If they confess 
their activities and name their co-conspirators, we may allow them some limited 
role, but those who don’t cooperate will need to be dealt with more firmly, for 
the good of their souls and for our community.

Cheers,
