Merger

[edit]

Oppose -- we are talking about different concepts here. A black bag operation is a burglary by officials, black bag cryptanalysis refers to the use of physical break-ins to compromise computer data security. Possibly this SHOULD be merged with "rubber hose cryptanalysis" into an article or section about non-mathematical means to compromise cypher systems.

Oppose - for the same reasons Eleland gives. Two different concepts, thus two different articles. Shawn K. Quinn 06:19, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Usage

[edit]

Is it fair to say the term is used primarily, or even exclusively, in the US? Pikemaster (talk) 15:35, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
