According to Ms. Reno (is she still "the honorable" once out of office?)
, a computer is a "weapon of mass destruction", she didn't mention
crypto being a munition tho'.


Law enforcers, she said, "are used
to robbers and guns. There are
now new criminals out there that
don't have guns. They have
computers and many have other
weapons of mass destruction."
Reno did not specify what those
weapons might be.
