I don’t think you’ve established that “You might as well consider it good”, I might as well not consider it good or bad. You haven’t given a reason to consider it more good than bad, just hope. I might hope my lottery ticket is a winner, but I have no reason to expect it to be.
If you want to persuade physicists to start looking for messages from beyond the space-time continuum, you’d better be able to offer them a method. I am completely at a loss for how one might go about it. I certainly don’t know how you are going to do it at the blackboard. Anything you write on the blackboard comes from you, not something outside space-time. Anticryptography would sound like the study of decrypting encryptions, which is already covered by cryptography. As far as I know, SETI is just dicking around and has no algorithms of the type you speak of, but my information just comes from Michael Crichton and others critical of them. I don’t see how you can have this other observer and at the same time have the scientist with control over the lab.
You haven’t come up with much of a moral system either, you just say to do what the Mugger says, when we are not in contact with any such Mugger and have no reason to suppose what the Mugger wants us to do is good.
