OTOH, we owe it to him to respect his opinion. If he didn't have the
guts to create the tool, this conversation would be moot. I say that we
should respect his wishes, and not bastardize PGP, if only not to
discourage other people to write "risky" software
Definitely. While I don't believe that Phil has legal grounds to make
Tom stop bastardizing PGP, I think that he has every right to protect
his reputation and proclaim loudly that he considers Tom's
modifications snake oil, etc.
I suspect that most people would respect Phil's wishes in this area,
but the cat's out of the bag as far as legally enforcing those wishes.
