➢  yet another reason why RC4-equivalent
    ciphers like GCM should be banned (we finally got rid of RC4, and now we're
    busy reintroducing it under another name)

For the benefit of similar non-experts on this list, I just want to point out that Peter’s assertion that GCM is just like RC4 is one that is not widely shared.
