M/A-COM and the magazine quoted are full of shit.  The US
constitution defines treason as giving "aid and comfort to the
enemy in time of war".  The United States has not declared war
in over forty years.  Until such time as war is declared (on
someone besides "drug abuse" :-), it is IMPOSSIBLE to commit
treason.

OK, so this isn't cryptographic.  Idiocy should be combatted
wherever it appears.
