My apologies on the short URL. It is the wrong one. Rather than copy/paste,
I just looked at it in the address bar, and typed it out by hand. This is
why characters such as '1', 'l' & 'i' should not be used in such scenarios,
especially passwords (among others). The correct short URL preview is:

    http://ae7.st/s/l.pr

Which redirects to a secure Wikipedia article entry about the problem with
ECB.

Thanks Bob for bringing this to my attention.
