Sounds far-fetched though. They probably just IM one another. There's probably a big Al Quaeda Jabber server somewhere that they connect to over SSL. No, I hadn't heard that.

I guess you've heard the "story" about the Al Queda cell passing messages about attacks using steganography in pictures posted to eBay? I rather suspect that it is an urban myth but they hid messages in pictures of sofas on the site (of course eBay resizes and chops pictures that are uploaded which would kill the steg content, but pay no matter to that detail) It has some extra geek value to embed messages into pictures on your blog that are hidden.. I might start doing that on mine :D thanks ~sm Mauve - yeah it's pretty cool..

Interesting. I'd only heard of steganography in digital watermarking. Ooh. Interesting. I'd only heard of steganography in digital watermarking.
