Very old technique, much older than that blog credits it for.  Spy
agencies did that in the 60's, that I've read about, with telex and
encoding machines.

I wonder how many people actually say out loud what they're typing as
they type in their passwords?  ;-)

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
