Tonight is the night when a whole group of unrelated people suddenly and in apparent coordination decide to blame Extended Random on Eric Rescorla, an uncleared contractor hired by the NSA to facilitate its introduction to IETF. Fascinating! twitter.com/DanielMicay/st

I don't think we should be going after either of these people or blaming them for anything. It's a very clear misrepresentation of what I said. Please don't accuse me of something that I clearly didn't do. Thanks.

Calling the contractor out by name and job position is an awfully strange way of realizing that ideal.

You posted the tweet naming them and tying to them to something that you're saying was an attempt to backdoor cryptography. Is there a theory on how this Extended Random standard could be used as a backdoor?

In the blog post that’s one tweet down in the thread. Also check the term “extended random” on Google Scholar if you want the peer-reviewed version.
