Mathematician warns US spies may be weakening next-gen encryption
"All we can do is tell people that NIST are the ones in the room 
making the decisions, but if you don't believe us, there's no way
you could verify that without being inside NIST" says Moody.There's our problem - right there!If a body as important as NIST is not so utterly transparent that any
random interested person cannot comb through every meeting, memo, and
coffee break conversation then it needs disbanding and replacing with
something that properly serves the public.We have bastardised technology to create a world of panopticonic
surveillance, and then misused it by scrutinising the private lives of
simple citizens.This is arse-backwards. If monitoring and auditing technology has any
legitimate use the only people who should morally (though willingly)
give-up some of their privacy are those that serve in public, in our
parliaments, councils, congress, government agencies and standards
bodies.> All we can do is tell peopleNo. You can prove it, and if you cannot, step aside for leadership
better suited to serving the public interest.
