Cicada was/is a cypherpunk recruitment effort.

I was going to dispute your assertion, but instead ended up confirming it: https://uncovering-cicada.fandom.com/wiki/The_Leaked_Email

Apparently the email I was thinking of where they describe their goals is, in fact, PGP-signed.

Still, quite ARG-like.

Well if it makes you feel any better, Liber Primus isn't anywhere near solved yet, so, if you get the bug, you can certainly take a stab at it.

Or if you're looking to get into the CIA, get into airforce intel, do well, and behave yourself, and you too can file paperwork for the most illustrious of spy agencies.
