Interesting. To who else's work can you write a nerd message board post explaining your intrinsic entitlement?

It's not at all shocking that the creator and maintainer of a free encrypted filesystem would eventually abandon the effort, given that comments like these are how the effort is ultimately repaid.

Is there a name for the hammer you swing, the hammer not of abusing copyright but instead of not writing simulated hardware disk encryption and donating it for free? It seems to me that's a far mightier hammer than the one you described.




From each according to their ability and all that. Oh, you can write crypto software? Therefore you must write it for me.


Uh oh, it looks like @tptacek's calling people message board nerds again.


I'm @tqbf, not @tptacek. @tptacek is some other person on Twitter.
