Home for Cryptome

I wasn't going to comment on the disconnection of Cryptome by Verio, because I'm not sure I'm in favor of everything Cryptome does. However, the timing of the shutdown just after Cryptome published information on Coast Guard not meeting TEMPEST security standards got my attention. But what really prompted me was this text of a letter from Justin Aldridge of Verio to John Young of Cryptome:

Please refer to our Acceptable Use Policy. Unfortunately, at the technical support level, we cannot provide you with any further information about the termination.

Ok, surely that's just tech support refering to legal.
