  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?
