Hi Jim, still love your sense of humour. All the best --Michael PS Some of your old stuff is at [1]cpunks.wordpress.com and at JYA [2]cryptome.org as well. 31.12.2013 10:46 Jim Bell <[3]jamesdbell8@yahoo.com>: I currently do not have a PGP key. This lack is not entirely due to laziness or ignorance. I also don't know anybody locally who has a PGP key, so I can't enter into the 'web of trust'. And having been so long disassociated with the CP list (and computers, too: Having been stuck in prison or denied access to computers for most of 15 years), I don't even recall how to do it. I have another reason to not 'do' PGP: Particularly due to the (unexpected) arrival of this 'Sanjuro' person, I am well aware that there are probably more than a few Feds who are on ultra-high alert, and from their point of view they may think of me as being "Suspect #1". If I go back and start using PGP again (even if only for signing things) I wonder what they will think. At the moment I have little need for secrecy, so I choose to not do PGP. (Also, I am virtually assuming that everything on my computer can be, and probably is, being read by a few dozen spy organizations of technically-competent nations. I use ordinary anti-virus programs, but I'm under no illusion that the NSA/CIA/GCHQ/TLA's of other nations can't devise a targeted bug that such software cannot find.) If any of you are interested in helping me confirm or deny this paranoid suspicion, I would very much appreciate your assistance.)
