and publish the book, which is what was done. DJB also got some rulings
on whether the restrictions on publishing encryption algorithms was
something that could be restricted. The US government kept trying to drag
things out, and ended up saying DJB wouldn't be prosecuted so that the
case would be declared moot in order to avoid an unfavorable ruling by
the supreme court. So if you don't want to follow the rules, in the end
you would likely still win on free speech grounds, but it might cost
you a lot of money and some jail time if you publish before going to
court.
So, is DJB totally broke now? :)
