I am writing a politics-and-tech column for George Magazine (it started in
the September issue). Unfortunately the mag is not online so you will have
to pick up the glossy copy on newsstands.

Fortunately Time Magazine puts its hardcopy content online, so I can
include a link to my profile of cryptographer Ian Goldberg. Unfortunately
the page layout was changed at the last minute and the text was chopped in
half. My article is part of a profile of Canadian leaders and innovators.

                    Ian Goldberg, 26
                    An encryption expert who is fighting for digital
                    privacy

                    Ian Goldberg has a dream: to outfit the world with
                    e-mail and telephone communication so armor
                    plated that even government spy agencies can't
                    penetrate it. "The individual right to privacy is
                    more important than granting governments the
                    permission to snoop anywhere they want," he
                    says. Since Goldberg is one of the world's
                    leading digital-encryption experts, his dream may
                    define reality.
