Slashdot has published Isaac Jones' review of my book describing how
we killed 56-bit DES, Brute Force: Cracking the Data Encryption
Standard. The followup has been curiously devoid of mention of the
Cypherpunks, a critical force in the Crypto Wars and to whom I
dedicated the book.

Did the Cypherpunks have their heyday and that's it?
