As far as I can tell, the copyright issue exists only in David
Sternlight's addled mind; and even he has conceded that he's got no
factual basis for asserting that PGP might infringe someone's copyright.
I can't tell if his messages about this reflect actual confusion about
the difference between patent and copyright, or if he's simply stumbled
across another FUD tactic to use against PGP.

In david's case, I think it was confusion.
In my case, lack of sleep.
