[governance] NSA sabotage of Internet security standards

[Suresh Ramasubramanian]

This is a bit of a contradiction

1. You +1 norbert saying that international civil society should not participate in this process

and

2. You hope that untainted top US cryptographers follow their UK colleagues.  If the UK colleagues are expected not to participate in this process ..

As it is, cryptographers from the USA are very active on this - and not all of them are NSA stooges, strange as it may sound in the paranoia laden atmosphere here.
