Info War Festival
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

http://web.aec.at/infowar/ ----- Ars Electronica Festival 98 INFOWAR - information. macht. krieg. 7. - 12.9.1998 Linz, Austria Presse - Information [Excerpts] 20.3.1998 Ars Electronica, one of the world's most highly-acclaimed festivals at the interface of art, technology and society, has been presented annually since 1979. INFOWAR, the title of this year's festival, places the strategies of data-supported wars - from the Gulf Conflict to the skirmishes of cyberguerillas - into the focal point of artistic as well as theoretical and scientific interest, to thereby shed light on the internal logic of the information society in connection with war. Numerous events, installations, network projects, performances and a symposium make up the festival's program to confront and deal with this subject. Symposium INFOWAR September 8 - 9, 1998 New weapons systems and military strategies will not exclusively occupy the middle point of these discussions. The aim is to elaborate on "information as a strategic weapon," the power of the media as political power, the new potential hot spots of conflict and new images of "enemy" in an information society characterized by global economic and financial markets. But this also has to do with hacker myths, cryptography, electronic bugging operations, and the serious concerns regarding national security versus private citizens' fears of the complete loss of the right of privacy. This symposium will deploy works of art and artistic responsibility as methods for coming to terms with these issues and achieving increased sensibility toward them. ----- Introduction The information society - no longer a vague promise of a better future, but a reality and a central challenge of the here-and-now - is founded upon the three key technologies of electricity, telecommunications and computers: Technologies developed for the purposes, and out of the logic, of war, technologies of simultaneity and coherence, keeping our civilian society in a state of permanent mobilisation driven by the battle for markets, resources and spheres of influence. A battle for supremacy in processes of economic concentration, in which the fronts, no longer drawn up along national boundaries and between political systems, are defined by technical standards. A battle in which the power of knowledge is managed as a profitable monopoly of its distribution and dissemination. The latest stock market upheavals have laid bare the power of a global market, such as only the digital revolution could have fathered, and which must be counted as the latter¹s most widely-felt direct outcome. The digitally-networked market of today wields more power than the politicians. Governments are losing their say in the international value of their currencies; they can no longer control, but only react. The massive expansion of freely-accessible communication networks, itself a global economic necessity, imposes severe constraints on the arbitrary restriction of information flows. Any transgression of a critical control functions in the cybertechnologies¹ sphere of responsibility and influence puts central power wielders in a hitherto unheard-of position of vulnerability and openness to attack. The geographic frontiers of the industrial age are increasingly losing their erstwhile significance in global politics, and giving way to vertical fronts along social stratifications. Whereas, in the past, war was concerned with the conquering of territory, and later with the control of production capacities, war in the 21st century is entirely concerned with the acquisition and exercise of power over knowledge. The three fronts of land, sea and air battles have been joined by a fourth, being set up within the global information systems. Spurred on by the "successes" of the Gulf war, the development of information warfare is running at full speed. Increasingly, the attention of the military strategists is turning away from computer-aided warfare - from potentiation of the destructive efficiency of military operations through the application of information technology, virtual reality and high-tech weaponry - to cyberwar, whose ultimate target is nothing less than the global information infrastructure itself: annihilation of the enemy¹s computer and communication systems, obliteration of his databases, destruction of his command and control systems. Yet increasingly the vital significance of the global information infrastructure for the functioning of the international finance markets compels the establishment of new strategic objectives: not obliteration, but manipulation, not destruction, but infiltration and assimilation. "Netwar" as the tactical deployment of information and disinformation, targeted at human understanding. These new forms of post-territorial conflicts, however, have for some time now ceased to be preserve of governments and their ministers of war. NGOs, hackers, computer freaks in the service of organised crime, and terrorist organisations with high-tech expertise are now the chief actors in the cyberguerilla nightmares of national security services and defence ministries. In 1998, under the banner of "INFO WAR", the Ars Electronica Festival of Art, Technology and Society, is appealing to artists, theoreticians and technologists for contributions relating to the social and political definition of the information society. The emphasis here will lie not on technological flights of fancy, but on the fronts drawn up in a society that is in a process of fundamental and violent upheaval.

But they can't honestly be labeled "insurance". And they > definitely *are* "socialist" mechanisms. They're not socialist - just the welfare state. If that's all you mean by "socialist" you end up including all sorts of odd people - like Bismarck's Prussia, the arch-conservative empire which invented the welfare state. In fact you include practically all government. Even occupying armies usually try to do famine relief, if only to get the refugees off the roads. The word becomes so broad it is emptied of meaning and is only used as an insult - just like the way some peope on the left use "Nazi" or "fascist" If "socialist" means anything it has to mean social control of the supply side - as opposed to "capitialism" which is control by the suppliers of capital. Like it says in a Good Old Clause: "to secure for the workers by hand or by brain the full fruits of their industry ... upon the basis of thwe common ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange..." It's possible to imagine a socialist economy in which there was no welfare system - ownership of business distributed amongst everybody, managers of each business appointed democratically; everyone starts with an equal share, but no helping hand if you don't make out. Whether many people who say they are socialists would want to live in such an economy is a different question.

I think you should perhaps read a little more maboy. 2600 is not an FAQ, although, with any "group" nowadays, there is a FAQ avaliable for newbies etc (obviously like yourself). 2600 refers to a frequency, NOT a q and a, actually it derived from a tone that could "steal" trunk lines.

Canada's Crypto Policy
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Thanks to mctaylor and Carrie Bendzsa at Entrust we offer her transcription of the recent Entrust roundtable on Canada's Cryptography Policy: http://jya.com/CA-crypto.htm (113K) Good, vigorous discussion of how US export policy inhibits Canada's crypto policy and commerce. And what might be done to get the CA gov to defy the supercop without getting shackled like US miscreants.

Cost of Ak manufacture
by ichudov＠algebra.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

With the current prices on AK clones being around $400, I expect that their domestic manufacture will become profitable. In fact, as someone else has noted, any toy maker would be able to produce all parts of the AKs, with the possible exception of barrels. Judging by their construction, there is not a lot of costs and they should be a lot cheaper than AR-15s (against which I have almost nothing). So, the question is, it is realistic to expect that AK s will be manufactured here? Will the control freaks be able to stop it? - Igor.

Will the control freaks be able to stop it? Two major problems. There is VERY little domestic manufacture of 7.62x39 ammo, and most of what is already out there is not reloadable. Even if AK clones became widespread, all the feds would have to do would be to ban the import of the ammo. Secondly, while it would certainly be possible for a manufacturing facility to construct an AK from raw materials, if "push comes to shove," it would be much faster and cheaper for people to "reconstruct" the Sten parts they have laying around. This has the added advantage that ammo is readily available for those. While 7.62x39 might become hard to find, the common US military and NATO calibers (7.62NATO, 5.56, and 9mm) will be widely available.

Thanks for the mammaries...
by CJ Parker 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

First, I would like to express my appreciation for the fact that every single subscriber to the cypherpunks distributed mailing lists has chosen to participate in the opening salvo (on April 19, 1998, 9:02 a.m.) of the Digital Revolution. Unfortunately, I ratted you all out earlier today. I'm sorry, but the Men In Really Dirty White threatened to tell my mom, if I didn't confess. Although mom has been dead for quite some time, my knee-jerk programming kicked in (pardon the pun). The good news is that I exposed Bill Gates as the RingLeader of the highly illegal conspiracy of which you are all a part, so at least you should have some deep-pockets on your side when THEY (TM) kick in your door. I will be entering the Witless Projection Pogrom shortly, so I suppose that there is no harm in revealing that my original persona on the cypherpunks list, the one you have all known me by for quite some time, is Blanc Weber. I'm sorry I've been deceiving you all with my various Toto and TruthMonger personas, but during my volunteer work at the Handle Institute, I was infected with Tourette Syndrome from a dirty needle (while *sewing*, you cynical little cocksuckers!). I am also the one who has been sending the ASCII-art spams to the list. Dimitri was completely innocent, and you all should feel terrible about the way you treated him. I know that all of the list subscribers will carry on with the TRIN plan on April 19th because they are truly committed to the violent overthrow of all governments, and not just because I made it with all of you under the guise of my Lynne Harrison persona. (Personal note to Human Gus-Peter: No, I'm not wearing any panties...) I feel particularly bad about ratting out our Philosopher King, Tim C. May, since he was such a great help to me under his Dale Thorn and John Young personas. I also ratted out Adam Back for his part in the murder of Princess Diana, but it backfired when he was secretly Knighted hours later, by the Queen Mother (No! not John Gilmore, you fucking idiots!) Anyway, before signing off, I would like to inform you that my real opinion of all of you who responded to my Toto and TruthMonger posts is about the same as the opinion of Billy Crystal (when he was on 'Soap') in regard to all of the fucking idiots who finally connected to the ClueServer, slapped themselves on the forehead, and said, "What am I doing? I'm arguing with a *dummy*!" It's been real... Love & XXXX's, Blanc Weber "I'm not an asshole, but I play one in real life." ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
