<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><big>Yes, Daniel. I do think you're
right.<br>
I mentionned this only to keep in mind some everyday realities...<br>
<br>
By the way, did you see that marvellous quotation from Vinton
Cerf yesterday on the Internet policy list of ISOC?<br>
<br>
"<i>NSA was involved in the early development of the TCP/IP
protocols and contributed in a number of positive ways towards
improved security.</i>" <br>
He wrote that very seriously, without any humourous bit.<br>
<br>
Great, isn't it?<br>
<br>
Perhaps a European mind seeks to separate different interests.
At the contrary sometimes, US minds seem to tightly mix all
interests into an only one.<br>
Don't you feel someting like that?<br>
<br>
@+, kind regards, Dom<br>

As I said there is no perfect solution but the institutional
approach
brings better garanty, if not perfect.<br>
<br>
In my 25 years working in a CSO I can testify that quite often I
had this
type of suspicion and I conducted investigations... which
eventually does
not bring proofs but strong presumptions...<br>
<br>
Naivety is something CSOs cannot afford if they want to be
efficient
players in multistakeholder games.<br>
<br>
During WSIS, who participated from civil society remember some
"Tunisian NGO's " which were covered secret agents of Ben Ali's
government spying our meetings. Real Tunisian NGO's warned us
(and
sometimes affront them providing intense and dramatic moments)
although
their representatives behave so obviously that you needed to be
really,
but really, naive to swallow it ;-).<br>
