They already are using encryption (Score 1)

These guys arent stupid, they have been and are using encryption already. How the feds get them is everyone wants better!! Someone that they dont know either offers them some elite space with a elite link to do there stuff on, or starts up a FTP site with amazing speed and space and they are hooked. So all the feds do is track that site that they have and voilla they have everyone. BTW most people use Bounces but still this doesn't stop them, and encrypted FTP sessions have been going on for years now. Most of these groups do not profit for the relase and do purchase the software and reccomend that if you like it that you do. I dont think that many people do but It doesn't stop some of us from doing so. Although I really think it is a waste of time/money worrying about this sort of stuff when you have bin ladens running around that can do real physical damage and harm to people.
