...there was no way to discipline what Heimert calls an increasing number of "wayward students" in the late '60s and early '70s. All students, not just card-carrying members of SDS, and even in the traditionally upper crust world of Eliot House were rebelling against Harvard-and its dress code...
...though of course only a small minority of party members were actual spies). To fake the Venona traffic would have required a conspiracy involving thousands, working together over many years. Furthermore, the decrypted messages are often verified by other sources. The Soviets and their agents in America thought their coded messages were secure, so they communicated fairly freely--about their penetration of the wartime Manhattan Project, for example. Some leftists still protest the innocence of Julius Rosenberg, but there he is in Venona, as an agent code-named "Liberal." Names long disputed emerge with unambiguous clarity.

Bristol (which makes a product called Wind/U that is meant to bridge the code gulf between Windows and a competitor, Unix, and vice versa) says Microsoft withheld the NT code to keep Bristol -- and Unix programmers -- out of the software game now dominated by Windows-viable products. Microsoft, unsurprisingly, denies the claim. But after Gates pulled the rug out from under his own defense...
