Collin, do you have something useful to add to this discussion or are you just getting a kick out of trolling me and the list?

All software has bugs, encryption and security software included.

Yes, encryption software is used by human rights activists inside totalitarian regimes. That is a common use case for them (the encryption part is working just fine btw).

This timestamp bug is a bug that cannot even exist in other software because no other software (that I'm aware of) goes to the lengths that Espionage does to provide plausible deniability.

And yes, I have no idea why this broke. And I will continue to have no idea why this broke until I decide it is time to stop replying to trolls and look at the code. :P

Cheers,
Greg
