For being a dipshit of course...Scooped AVN: Cincinnati Couple Go to Trial August 19 Remember what I said a couple of days ago what was going to happen in Cincinnati in wake of adult movies being pulled from pay-per-view. I'm sure we'll be seeing more of the following cases with attorney Lou Sirkin working overtime: This time a Cincinnati couple- Jennifer Dute, 31, and her husband Alan, 61 will be going to trial next week. The Dutes were indicted by a Hamilton County grand jury this past April on four counts of pandering obscenity, charges that carry a maximum sentence of four years in prison. Their company, A&J Specialty, also was indicted on four counts of pandering obscenity and faces a maximum fine of $40,000. The search warrant was served March 21. Hamilton County Prosecutor Mike Allen said the pair sold pornographic videos by mail despite a court order prohibiting such sales to or from Hamilton County. Authorities said sales were made Feb. 11, March 4, March 7, and March 21. Officials said the Dutes pleaded guilty to similar charges three years ago. In 1999, Jennifer Dute faced two counts of pandering obscenity and a possible three years in jail. At that time she was accused of starring in two videos Jennifer 2 and Jennifer 3 and then marketing them on a Web site and in a local newspaper, Everybody's News- now defunct. Prosecutor Mike Allen said the Hamilton County Sheriff's office investigated the case and purchased copies of the videos. Allen said investigators determined they may violate community standards for obscenity. Dute avoided going to prison when she swore she'd never again sell her home-made porn tapes in or from Hamilton County. But Hamilton County officials say she lied because they bought more home-made porn tapes - starring the 31-year-old Ms. Dute - from her Anderson Township home at least four times in February and March. Allen was the brains trust behind the great professor rat hunt of 2001.

Sex.com update

Sex.com Saga Continues- At Least for a Couple More Weeks That Gary Kremen, the owner of sex.com will never see the $65 million the courts have awarded him in his legal battles against Stephen Cohen is almost a given. Now Kremen will have to wait a few more weeks to see what the 9th District Court of Appeals will come up with. Kremen yesterday presented a case in San Francisco in which he holds Network Solutions, a division of VeriSign accountable for the whole sex.com mess to begin with. It's Kremen's contention that Network Solutions never bothered to verify Cohen's forged request to transfer the domain from Kremen. Kremen is saying that the largest U.S. domain name registry should be held accountable for an error that put the Internet address in the hands of Cohen, a known con artist. In a hearing before a federal appeals court panel, Kremen's lawyers argued that Network Solutions committed a breach of contract when it failed to verify the forged request. "This all could have been prevented with a simple call or e-mail to Mr. Kremen saying: Did you authorize this?" said James Wagstaffe, the attorney for Kremen, who's seeking monetary damages. This is Kremen's second try at a court judgment against Network Solutions. Kremen lost the first case in May, 2000 when federal judge James J. Ware in San Jose, California ruled against him basing his decision in part on the fact that at the time Kremen registered the site, in 1994, domains were free. Ware contended that because Network Solutions was offered nothing of value in exchange for its efforts, it not should be held financially liable for its error. But Ware also held Cohen, liable to the tune of $65 million in largely uncollected damages. Cohen's attorneys were also in appellate court Tuesday, seeking to undo that ruling. In yesterday's appellate hearing, attorney Wagstaffe argued that even though Network Solutions didn't get money for registering the domain, it did get personal information about Kremen for its database. Wagstaffe said that should count as something of value. The company was also able to begin charging registrants shortly afterward, having developed its initial database of free registrations. Attorneys for Network Solutions, disagreed rejecting the argument that a domain name's entry in Network Solutions central domain name server, or DNS, constitutes proof of ownership of that Internet address. http://www.generossextreme.com/ Is this guy the matt Drudge of the naughties or what? http://www.newarchitectmag.com/documents/s=2443/na0902f/index.html Study carefully,there will be questions.

http://www.generossextreme.com/Whack Attack 16: Sweet Ass Butt Kisses Kinky D. Tom Byron. Ashley Blue, Veronica Caine, Nikita Denise, Kinky, Savanna Rain, Brooke Daze The opening montages are working better than ever, but as he winds up the lest leg of his illustrious sexual world tour, Tom Byron couldn't go out with a bang better than the one he gets with the team of Kinky and Nikita Denise. In a scene that establishes both blistering genital and ass-to-mouth contact ratio, the ladies join forces to give the Icon's arsehole the tongue bath of its life. And for most guys being played for a butt trumpet would be a pleasant enough way of ending a day- akin to settling back in a rocking chair with a tall mint julep on the veranda at sunset. But because he's not a plantation owner but a video company owner with a pressing new release schedule, Byron's hot footing it in Denise's snatch splitting the beard and fucking her accent loose prio to taking a whack at Kinky's vowels and syllables. The British lass is first to get it in the ass as Nikita laps the residue off Byron's cock between strokes. Kinky reciprocates when it's Nikita's turn for a crowbar in the ass. And for the pop shot, both girls have their eager tongues out. Besides offering the viewer one of the last opportunities he'll have of watching a legendary craftsman at work in a woman's rectum, what makes this tape particularly noteworthy is the fact that Brooke "no show" Daze and hers actually showed up for it. Yes, it's true. No mistaking the Tiffany Mynx resemblance, Daze resides in the flesh and Dale Dabone resides in her ass before all's said and done. A lusty pile driver with Dale taking the shit chute to cocoa town highlights a pairing that caps with another ass to mouth finisher. Very pretty with an asshole as wholesome as her face, Ashley Blue's the leadoff girl in this sparking ensemble. Although Blue's tits are near to non existent, it's her trimmed vagina that Mark Davis is cuddling up to. Then, with a throttling choke hold, Davis is all romance as he handles her basically like a marionette on Quaaludes. Ashley displays an unbridled vocal enthusiasm for having her snatch French kissed. And with more love and kisses in the offing, Mark spits down her throat and fucks her esophagus. Their anal time together is also considerable with penis-to-mouth love very much a part of the goodwill vibe. No stranger to a man being in her ass, or, for that fact, many strangers being in her ass, Veronica Caine and Joey Ray re-enact the bun fight at the BM corral. Like a man on a mission, the mission being one of excavating a new shit hole, Joey runs some major cable through Veronica their best statement being a side saddler with a rim-to-maw finale. Savanna Rain, who opts for a black evening dress, warns Lee Stone that she's got a tight ass which is like warning a huge hand about a small glove. Nevertheless Lee makes it fit and Rain's got to quit but only after some wincing gestures, a great pile driver and another ATM puts any chance of Rain having second thoughts out of the way. The Porn Industry is a Dirty Business From the Palm Beach Post: Six weeks into her new job, Jessica Lee is still giddy with her good fortune. ""I work three to five hours a day naked at home," says Lee, 24, a UCLA grad living in Miami. "I can't believe the money." Lee claims she's making $2,000 a day as an entry-level Internet porn star.

Netdog to porn valley intercept.
by Matthew X 16 Aug '02

16 Aug '02

JoJo Rufus Writes: I'm the owner of a rather large paysite and always wanted to get my head in the door to those people out in Porn Valley. Until I went to Internext in Florida. I was invited to an invite-only party with some of the bigger names on the Internet. We're talking people who run massive paysites scaling millions of dollars a year, tremendous TGP players, PHP programmers, traffic masters, AVS marketers. Everyone is lowkey and real. They're just like average people yet wear Rolex watches but drink domestic beer. Then I realize how fucked up porn people really are. All I ever hear in the Valley are all these motherfuckers whining and complaining and bitching and moaning. This guy ripped me off, my distributor is taking too much of a cut, I never have enough money, maybe I'll make some money by referring this whore I picked up in Palmdale. It's funny. Nobody ever has any money. And I'll tell you why. For a person to start a new venture and try to set up and own his own titles, you have about as fat a chance of making money than a clam trying to grow a pearl. You know why? Cause you'll never get paid. Term deals? Great! There are really only a few talented filmmakers who have enough talent to create good product without dishing out a bunch of generic crap. Everything's been done. Meanwhile, the boys who are ruling the Internet are fucking liquid. They have cash. And they have the cash to go after the biggest and brightest people. They don't deal with these fuckups in porn who flunk out of company after company and somehow always land a job. Chuck Martino. Kid Vegas. John T. Bone. The list goes on and on. You know why? The Internet requires skills and accountability. Porn Valley has nothing but a bunch of backstabbing cunts with IQs of room temperature trying to figure out how they can skim off the top. But guess what? You rip someone off and it fucking lasts. Also, you shoot a brand new girl on the Internet and it's up that day. You shoot a brand new girl on video and it's up in a few months but who cares. She's on the box of a dozen titles to boot. How new is that? The immediacy is what matters. Shoot with the Net in mind. Don't pigeonhole yourself into thinking about measly video distribution. So you sell 1000 units out the door if you're lucky. Half the distributors don't pay you on time. You have to beg, borrow and steal. Then you wait. Meanwhile you ain't got enough money to pay rent and you're left eating cheese and crackers like some starving Third World buffoon. You are fucking stuck. The Internext tells us one thing. If you don't embrace the net, you are doomed. Like when people didn't embrace the VCR. Or the camcorder. Or DVDs. But guess what? The Internet requires a hell of alot more skills that those past technological advances and, of course, Porn Valley tends to attract scumbags. Ain't that about a bitch.

TIPS San diego style.
by Matthew X 16 Aug '02

16 Aug '02

Dave Cummings posts: If any of you have involved any government authorities in any aspect of the past emails from pornstar hater, zodia killer (aka: bryan sullivan?), please let FBI Special Agent Mike Wagoner at the San Diego FBI office (858-499-7736) know so that he can contact those agencies and integrate information and coordinate with them on any ongoing investigations the San Diego FBI has now opened an active investigation into the below email, and others of a threatening nature that seem of concern to them. I've advised FBI Agent Wagoner that there was a posting a few months ago about the St Louis FBI office supposedly having contacted the individual; I also advised him that I reported the below email to the Army's Criminal Investigative Division and Department of Defense, in case "war crimes" might be involved. And, that my copy of the "Chad Luke" latter was faxed, as requested by them, to Postal Inspectors (just in case, as some folks have speculated, the letters many of us received might possibly have actually been from bryan sullivan). The FBI asked that I place my letter and envelope into a sealed plastic bag in case it might later be needed for examination for fingerprints and other tracings of evidence--if you still have your copy, you might want to do likewise? If sullivan gets wind of this email, I imagine that there might soon be emails forthcoming from him (possibly disguised as another name/sender?) with disparaging remarks about me; but, though I strongly and wholeheartedly defend his right of free speech and right to voice his opinions, I feel that we all have a responsibility to report info of a possible criminal nature to the authorities. Again, so that the FBI has access to ALL info that might be being processed presently by other agencies, please advise FBI Agent Wagoner of anything you might have initiated--to email him, use sandiego(a)fbi.gov and make the subject "For Special Agent Mike Wagoner", or phone him at 858-499-7736 If any of you have received any emails from Mr Sullivan in the last three weeks (I have NOT), would you forward them to me---I'll then forward one copy of each new email to Agent Wagoner (in that way, he's not getting separate emails from many of us, all with the same info). I also advised the FBI that one of the Internet writers might have a copy of the (posted) email Sullivan sent to him regarding the past visit he received from the FBI--they are interested in seeing Sullivan's comments. I gave him the phone number to the writer who probably has it in his files. Dave Gene sez: Coincidentally to the fact, I just received a call from agent Wagoner and will be of assistance in any way possible. Now I have a reason. Person or persons [Sullivan?] is using my name to send viruses to select people in the business.End. As long as the filth is there,why not use the fucks for some honest labor.I have done this myself once when assaulted and its Mongo approved.Mind you APster IS the future of law enforcement.

".. the productive and most profitable way to organize is to disintegrate."
by Matthew X 16 Aug '02

16 Aug '02

The Declustering of America: "With the new telecommunications technology, it is increasingly easy for a firm to operate in a dispersed manner". Although only really discussing geography, I find articles like this fascinating, of course, because today are living early forms of the "next company" described by Peter Drucker: "By now the new information technology Internet and e-mail have practically eliminated the physical costs of communications. This has meant that the most productive and most profitable way to organize is to disintegrate." 6:36:27 AM http://www.ozzie.net/blog/

Re: TCPA not virtualizable during ownership change
by AARG!Anonymous 16 Aug '02

16 Aug '02

Basically I agree with Adam's analysis. At this point I think he understands the spec equally as well as I do. He has a good point about the Privacy CA key being another security weakness that could break the whole system. It would be good to consider how exactly that problem could be eliminated using more sophisticated crypto. Keep in mind that there is a need to be able to revoke Endorsement Certificates if it is somehow discovered that a TPM has been cracked or is bogus. I'm not sure that would be possible with straight Chaum blinding or Brands credentials. I would perhaps look at Group Signature schemes; there is one with efficient revocation being presented at Crypto 02. These involve a TTP but he can't forge credentials, just link identity keys to endorsement keys (in TCPA terms). Any system which allows for revocation must have such linkability, right? As for Joe Ashwood's analysis, I think he is getting confused between the endorsement key, endorsement certificate, and endorsement credentials. The first is the key pair created on the TPM. The terms PUBEK and PRIVEK are used to refer to the public and private parts of the endorsement key. The endorsement certificate is an X.509 certificate issued on the endorsement key by the manufacturer. The manufacturer is also called the TPM Entity or TPME. The endorsement credential is the same as the endorsement certificate, but considered as an abstract data structure rather than as a specific embodiment. The PRIVEK never leaves the chip. The PUBEK does, but it is considered sensitive because it is a de facto unique identifier for the system, like the Intel processor serial number which caused such controversy a few years ago. The endorsement certificate holds the PUBEK value (in the SubjectPublicKeyInfo field) and so is equally a de facto unique identifier, hence it is also not too widely shown. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to majordomo(a)wasabisystems.com
