I'm sorry to see it's a competition in which both nations have pretense to 'win.' Anyway, I remember reading on some Slashdot post a few years ago that most serious hardware hackers and pentest communities operate behind VPNs now because of fears of legal recrimination, etc. It's too bad. If the spooks keep pushing, the really privacy-minded people will go back to BBS software and modems that don't answer unless your number is on a white list. I've been trying to build a dial-in server recently as an educational pasttime - always wondered what it looked like on the other side of a PPP connection - so I've been reading through old docs about Hayes modem command sets, SLIP connection parameters, even BBS software like syncronet [1] and I'm reminded not only how immensely fascinating this tech was but how easily it would lend itself to a situation like the one I've described.
