The pacificism which underlies most cypherpunk ideas has always been attractive. It's cheaper to be hard to track than to have to defend yourself.

I Love Tim May
by Anonymous 30 Aug '01

Tim - I've been off the list for a long time but return to find that I actually agree with a bunch of your posts. What the fuck happened? Aimee you have done wonders for love. Feds here put my bits into the vacuumed up collection of the day for later style and word adjacency analysis and detect the level of threat and stress in my writing, correlate it with other postings to determine the level of sympathy with listcrime freedom mongers and tag it with the unique ID of my processor put it in a vault for seven years. Meanwhile overhead drone aircraft videotape my town, then downtown they perform automated object trajectory analysis which spits out the outliers of Bayesian determiners of normalcy, flagging them as possible threatening activities while identifying the gait, odors, and timesequence behaviors of individuals who thought or did something not sanctioned by the Corporate Masters. So my Big Brethren, hey - I'm thinking of just how one might devastate a regional economy with just a minor disruption in its transportation capabilities. I don't wear Nike Shoes. So sue me. Arrest me. Fuck me. Some day some time Tim May may have writ: "There seems to be a feeding frenzy of these "you're going to get in trouble!" posts. Several weeks ago, it was the "spoliation" thread, with Aimee assuring us that using certain technologies must be illegal. She could say why, in real terms (real as opposed to "maybe in the future"), but she implied we would be on thin ice. Oddly, Black Unicorn added a blizzard of cites he claimed showed that using some technologies, even long in advance of a any charges being filed or orders issued, would be "taunting Happy Fun Court." Apparently the First, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments are made moot when Mr. Happy Fun Court decides he is ..."

cypherpunks don't write code.
by Ray Dillinger 30 Aug '01

30 Aug '01

Squawking on a mailing list is protected behavior, and I figure you can probably do that all you want. As someone else here pointed out, "You have to do something else" before they can arrest you. But now that certain types of code have been criminalized, writing code counts as "something else". So the lesson is, if you squawk on mailing lists, don't write code. If you write code, don't squawk on mailing lists, especially about the illegitimate uses to which criminals may put your code. So we each must come to our own decision; write code, or continue to squawk? Because cypherpunks, unless they want to join the canarypunks, don't write code anymore. My decision is made. Goodbye. This list wasn't a good coding resource anyway; maybe I'll check out perrypunks or something. Happy squawking. And in response to the inevitable "don't let the door hit your ass on the way out", here's my response in advance: Don't let them slam the jail doors on your dicks, I hear that hurts like a sonofabitch.

But I would > think metatags at the very least would fall under the "Fair Use" clause. Take a look at http://www.infoworld.com/articles/ca/xml/01/04/23/010423calist.xml for an analysis of some of the cases involving metatags and trademarks. That article discusses Eli Lilly's lawsuit against a health food company that put Prozac in the metatags for their herbal antidepressant. In that case there was a possibility of confusion; a customer might have though that the product was somehow related to Prozac or officially sanctioned by Prozac's manufacturer. However: "Comparison advertising, whether in print or on a Web site, is one of the few permitted uses of another company's trademark," Bevilacqua says. If a company runs a legitimate comparison advertisement on its Web site, mention of a competitor's trademark in the metatags of the page with the comparison ad would be an acceptable use of the mark, Bevilacqua says. Your case would be a lot more similar to this. You are basically doing a comparison between scientology and, well, sanity. As long as it is clear that your site is ANTI scientology and is not endorsed in any way by the church, then there should be no possibility of confusion.
