The devices you call "snake oil" and me pushing for NetBSD to stop
generating predictable keys are both aspects of me working to address
entropy related vulnerabilities ever since recognizing them as a major
weak link in Internet security while working on BIND 9 some 20 years
ago.  But of course I have no way of proving my sincere intent to you,
just like you have no way of proving to me that you are not paid by
the NSA to undermine the security of NetBSD.  So please, let's stop
with the ad hominem attacks and focus on the technical issues.
