- NSA harassment alive and well - is this company a `small fish'? doesn't NSA have something better to do? - his request is overbroad, but still needs some kind of help - maybe the laywers on the list can help out too ===cut=here=== From: grady@netcom.com (Grady Ward) Subject: help me fight NSA Organization: Moby lexicons Date: Mon, 13 Sep 1993 23:54:54 GMT An individual at the NSA has recently been warning my publisher of Moby Crypto that they will be breaking the law if they export the product. Since I do not include any executables, only source and other documentation that routinely appears in textbooks that are exported, I think this hasseling is unwarranted and unconstitutional. Since knocking heads with the NSA may result in some kind of process, I need some assistance to bolster my case. What you can do: please send me a reference on every book or magazine article you are aware of that contains any 'source code'. The code can be a fragment or in any computer language as long as it implements encryption or other material that would be export controlled if incoporated in an executable. I think collecting a large number of these citations will help my attornies in pointing out the absurdity of the situation to government attornies if necessary. Please e-mail any citations that you have. Thanks ahead of time. Grady Ward grady@netcom.com
