Daley Announcements" <jvd(a)samsara.law.cwru.edu> Federal District Court Holds That Software Publishers Are Not Protected by the First Amendment Government Wins Summary Judgment in Junger v. Daley Judge Gwin's Opinion Is Available on Line ---------------------------------------------------------------- Cleveland, Ohio, Wednesday, July 8, 1998 For Immediate Release For More Information Contact: Peter D. Junger (216) 368-2535 <junger(a)samsara.law.cwru.edu> Raymond Vasvari (216) 662-1780 <freespeech(a)mail.multiverse.com> Or see URL: http://samsara.law.cwru.edu/comp_law/jvd/ To be added to, or removed from, the list of those who were sent this press release, please send e-mail to <lawsuit(a)upaya.multiverse.com>. _________________________________________________________________ Cleveland, Ohio, July 8 -- On July 3, 1998 Judge Gwin of the United States District Court of the Northern District of Ohio held that computer programs are not writings protected by the constitution because they are ``inherently functional'' and granted summary judgment dismissing a suit challenging regulations that forbid the publication of encryption programs on the Internet or the World Wide Web. The suit was brought by Peter Junger, a law professor at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, to enjoin the enforcement of export regulations on encryption software that prevent him from publishing his class materials and articles for his course in Computing and the Law on the Internet because they contain some encryption programs. Junger claimed in his suit that those encryption programs were writings that were entitled to the full protection of the First Amendment. ``Of course they are writings,'' Junger says, ``I know because I wrote some of them. And I need to be able to publish them if I am ever going to be able to explain to lawyers and law students how computers work and how the law should be applied to computing.'' The government, on the other hand, argued that its export regulations, which require that one obtain a license from the Commerce Department before publishing materials containing encryption software on the Internet or the World Wide Web, seek only to restrict the distribution of encryption software itself, not ideas on encryption. And Judge Gwin agreed with the government, finding that: ``the Export Regulations are constitutional because encryption source code is inherently functional, because the Export Regulations are not directed at source code's expressive elements, and because the Export Regulations do not reach academic discussions of software, or software in print form.'' In a related case in California brought by mathematics professor Daniel Bernstein, Federal District Court Judge Patel held that computer programs are speech that is protected by the First Amendment, but Judge Gwin rejected that argument, saying: ``The Bernstein court's assertion that `language equals protected speech' is unsound. `Speech' is not protected simply because we write it in a language.'' It is Judge Gwin's position that computer source code is a purely functional device: ``The court in Bernstein misunderstood the significance of source code's functionality. Source code is `purely functional,' in a way that the Bernstein Court's examples of instructions, manuals, and recipes are not. Unlike instructions, a manual, or a recipe, source code actually performs the function it describes. While a recipe provides instructions to a cook, source code is a device, like embedded circuitry in a telephone, that actually does the function of encryption.'' There is thus a clear split between the two courts: Judge Patel holding that computer software is protected by the First Amendment and Judge Gwin holding that it isn't. The Bernstein case is on appeal and Professor Junger says that he intends to appeal Judge Gwin's decision: ``We have had almost no financial support for this case, but the issue of whether encryption software and software in general is protected like other writings under the First Amendment, or whether it is to be treated as a special exception like obscenity and fighting words as Judge Gwin held, is so important that we will have to scrape up the resources somehow to bring an appeal.'' Judge Gwin's opinion is now available at <http://jya.com/pdj11.htm> and is mirrored at <http://samsara.law.cwru.edu/comp_law/jvd/pdj11.html>. -30-

Re: Initial summary/analysis: Junger v. Daley
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Thanks to Greg for the excellent summary and analysis. Responses by Peter Junger and his attorneys, those involved with Bernstein and Karn, and others on the technical and legal interpretation would be welcome. On the interplay among the three cases: We have heard that there was meeting in DC of the three teams with the US side. And that there may have been a report on this meeting at the recent DC security conference. Is there a public report available? Note: Greg meant to quote Judge Gwin on source code: "all but *un*intelligible to most people." The contrast between Patel and Gwin remind of the campaign of Wassenaar members to claim relaxation of crypto controls while not truly doing so, as in the recent Irish and US press release deceptions. More are expected as the US trade and crypto czars make their global rounds to arrange overt-covert deals for marketing munitions. The complicity of the banks and giant corps is not surprising with their legacy of doing just that -- as one defense expert says, expect ex-gov crypto watchdogs to aid the market titans to lure government buyers while peddling cheap knockoffs to voters. Amazing that the NYT sent up that trial balloon for government access to key strokes in lieu of GAK. Who's pushing that, working on the technology?

Further, I also think it is absurd to try to outlaw cryptography because it is essential and not just to obtain privacy (as in my posting on logical semantics and crypto, some months ago [1]). In fact, I think that cryptography is needed to provide *secure routing* [1] (a property that is more basic than secure content and which I think will be impossible to forbid in the future). However, I also think that the arguments being thought by each side may carry their own intrinsic worth. Further, even though the whole subject is IMO ephemeral because unworkable, some of those arguments may have a far reaching consequence and transcend the issue. Should we overlook that? IMO, no. Even thrash can be recycled ;-) My remark above was in this line of reasoning. So, it ought not to be extrapolated to printed books -- I am not at all concerned about the legal aspects. In fact, laws can be wrong and IMO this is a clear example. But, regarding printed books -- yes, the comment above (and others in that line) are right. If this logic exercise is carried to its fully immoral end, then books should not be allowed to carry complete and workable source code. Which does not show that the argument is illogical, just immoral. Technically, the argument is sound. As Hume pointed out a long time ago, if we were guided only by reason and logic then surely I should prefer to destroy the rest of the world instead of enduring even a small pain in one of my fingers. While this shows that logic is not all, it also shows that one cannot deny logic by moral or ethics but rather define what precedes what in case of conflict, for each society. While this can have different answers for different societies, eg where in some suicide is moral, the cryptography issue may take a different twist if the link to secure routing is further investigated and cryptography is not only used just for secure content as it is today.

Re: Lotus Notes signature / encryption
by Charlie_Kaufman＠iris.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

>Could someone kindly tell me about the drawbacks of the Lotus Notes >signature / encryption system (export version)? I guess my first question would be "compared to what?". Compared to the Lotus Notes domestic version, the crypto is weaker in two ways. First, there is a backdoor by which all but 40 bits of each symmetric key is encrypted under a public key whose private half is known to the U.S. government. This encrypted value is included in all messages where the key is passed aroung. Depending on how you feel about breaking 40 bit keys, this means it is somewhere between easy and trivial for the U.S. government to eavesdrop on your communications It also uses 512 bit RSA keys for distribution of encryption keys, which makes it attackable by attackers other than the U.S. government. While no one has ever publicly demonstrated breaking a 512 bit RSA key (last I heard), the workfactor is well understood and it's clearly feasible (and in fact overdue). Compared to exportable versions of S/MIME or SSL, the crypto is considerably stronger. Against attackers other than the U.S. government (and even a paranoid would admit there are other attackers to be concerned about (e.g. the French government)), the workfactor to attack the symmetric keys is 64 bits - a little shakey but not the weakest link in most systems. Further, RSA signature keys are 630 bits, which is better than most exportable systems. Compared to non-exportable (but internationally available) systems, like PGP and strong S/MIME and SSL, the crypto is substantially weaker. Another aspect to consider is the strength of the PKI. Lotus Notes uses an organizationally based PKI, meaning that to a large degree your security depends on the trustworthiness and competence of your system administrator. With PGP, your security is under your own control to a much larger degree. For people who are more security aware than their administrators (as most PGP users are), the PGP PKI offers better security. For people who are less security aware than their administrators (as most Lotus Notes users are), the Lotus Notes PKI offers better security. Finally, a "drawback" that might be relevant to this group is the fact that because the Lotus Notes export version has a key-escrow-like backdoor, using it offers tacit political endorsement for the U.S. government's contention that key escrow is a technically practical compromise between the needs of users for privacy and the "needs" of government to know all the secrets of everyone on the planet. In my mind, this argues strongly in favor of using real strong crypto if that is an option, but using weak crypto as an alternative is offering tacit political endorsement for the even more dangerous contention that weak crypto is good enough. Your mileage may vary. --Charlie Kaufman (charlie_kaufman(a)iris.com)

Re: IP: "CyberCash can't oust credit cards"
by Dave Birch 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Ryan Lackey said >I think resistance to new payment schemes on the part of a merchant is in >cost and effort to set up. Having a free apache commerce plugin which >handles >a variety of payment systems... What's wrong with this model is that it imports historical physical models that are irrelevant on the Net. Why does the merchant take payments at all? Imagine this scenario: you go into the Good Guys and buy a Walkman. The clerk gives you a ticket. You go round to your branch of Wells Fargo and get a cashiers cheque made out to the merchant, walk round to the merchant's branch of BankAmerica -- or BankBank, or whatever it's called now :) -- and deposit the cheque in the merchants account. BankBank gives you a receipt which you take back to the Good Guys and pick up your Walkman. Now, apart from all of the walking around, this is not a bad system. The Good Guys don't need cash registers, links to First Data etc etc. The Good Guys don't need to put up stickers saying "we take Visa", because the bank takes everything. The Good Guys don't care how you paid. The bank is much better placed than the merchant to handle the risks associated with payments and therefore the information asymmetries associated with the payment are significantly reduced (there's a good article about this in the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta's Economic Review, 1Q98). On the Net, there's no walking around. In the physical world, it clearly makes no sense for every bank to build a network out to every merchant: hence it makes sense to have physical payment instruments (e.g. notes, cheques) and credit/charge cards. On the Net, though, every participant is connected. When you buy a book from Amazon, what is the point of sending your credit card details to Amazon just so that they can send the details on to an acquiring network, third-party processor etc. Surely it makes more sense for merchants to have deals with payment agents (this is the model in OTP, Smart Access etc). When you press the button marked "Pay" on your browser, wouldn't it be more natural for a message to go to your bank than to the merchant? Thus, I get a "ticket" from Amazon saying "you owe $20 for this book". I pass the ticket to a payment agent (which may be a bank) and pay them (the negotiation being between my wallet and the agent"). The agent sends me a receipt to keep: I send the receipt to Amazon and they send me a book. Alternatively, perhaps the receipt let's me play Doom for a month or get ten upgrade to an item of software or whatever. All Amazon care is that the money has been paid: what do they care whether I used DigiCash or Mondex, Visa or MasterCard? You might argue that the merchant would discount for cleared funds (pay by Mondex and get 2% off) but I think that its frankly too much bother for them to work out N different prices by M different payment methods. I would imagine that just a merchants run loyalty schemes ("double points if you buy cornflakes") then so would payment agents ("double points for DigiCash") but each could operate their business independently. I would argue that the idea that merchants take payments is outdated. Since merchants don't care about cypherpunk favourites such as bearer instruments and anonymity, they'll be perfectly happy to have an acquiring account with BigBank and get a statement at the end of the month that details the payments taken and says "Money collected $1000, our fee $50, deposited to your account $950". Now, the merchant hasn't had to buy a commerce server, negiotiate 10 different acquiring agreements, implement SET or do anything else. Hey, so it's 5%: so what?

Froward From: Anonymous To: die(a)pig.die.com Cc: jy(a)jya.com Subject: Intel plans for world domination Date: Wed, 8 Jul 1998 10:51:04 -0500 Good afternoon gentlemen, I've been reading the correspondence on the possibility of govt keystroke access with some interest. I'm in a slightly odd position as I'm responsible for security in one of the larger wintel companies. As such I've been getting quite a feeling of deja vu reading your mails. Intel and others are moving in exactly this direction with a number of initiatives, most notably the PC98, PCXX, and "Wired For Management". WfM in particular is very scary - one of the components is a facility for PC's to download and run digitally signed software before the OS is booted - between "the end of BIOS initialisation and when control is transferred to a high-level OS" in the words of one Intel document. The code is verified by routines embedded in the BIOS and will allegedly use some subset of X.509v3 and PKCS#1. As so often happens in circumstances like this I can't risk passing documents directly as I can't be sure of their provenance - I really have no idea which ones are now considered trade secrets and which have been made public. Instead I recommend you have a look at the Intel WfM site http://www.intel.com/ial/wfm/ with particular reference to the "Pre-Boot Execution Environment" (PXE) and "System Management BIOS" (SMBIOS). The Microsoft pc98 site is at http://www.microsoft.com/hwdev/pc98.htm and the Intel one at http://developer.intel.com/design/pc98/. ---------- And, DM reminds of the DIRT program Ray Arachelian first posted here: There's an article on page 37 of the July 6, 1998 issue of NetworkWorld about a new software product for Windows machines that is basically a trojan horse that allows access to all keystrokes and files on a system from a remote "America's Most Wanted"-type HQ. I can't find the article online at www.networkworld.com, but you can go the the company's site at http://www.thecodex.com/dirt.html to see it. Sale of DIRT is "restricted to military, government, and law enforcement agencies", the article says.

Jim Bell Message
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Forwarded from a long-time cpunk who received a call from Jim Bell yesterday. Jim asked that this message be publicized: 7/7/98 By this post he is publically accusing the Federal Government of having spied on him from two physical addresses. These are two houses to the North & to the East of his parent's house. The government moved in within 6 months (approx) of the time before his arrest. One of the addresses is 7217 Mississippi, which is listed as "Billy King", who died a couple of years ago. The house is ostensibly being occupied by his widow (or that is the impression). It is listed as being as owned by Alverna King, but he has his doubts. The other is address is 7302 Corregidor, purchased about 2.5 - 3 years ago by someone. Listed as being the address of Sundown Development, a small business company. A second floor was added soon after it was acquired by the company. They aren't listed as the owners on record, but they are listed as being at that address. Thinks this is a sham. The govmt was basically next door spying on him for at least a year, before it started provoking him. In response to his using the internet for freewheeling debate, they engaged in some bugging that is illegal under Washington State law. It is illegal to use bugging without the knowledge of the participants. He has developed a technique for identifying when someone is tailing him. Found this on Father's day when some people got a little too close to him. He drove to his Sister's party on Hayden Island in Oregon, and noticed the tails. Identified them as Rixen Marine, which he thinks is a sham, another front organization. One of the reasons he was arrested (though they're not willing to admit it) is because was way too successful in tailing _them_. A few more days and he would have blown their entire operation. He couldn't go into the details of how he found out these things. Did research & sophisticated observation. Will be getting friends to do searches in databases, etc. to gather more info to substantiate his suspicions. He said his recent arrest was on a probation violation charge - failure to pay a fine or something, wasn't clear on the specifics. There will be a hearing on his case this Friday the 10th. Prosecutors last year didn't know what the govmt was up to - not told of the spying (a "black operation"). Their method of spying on him are techniques which are possible, though rarely used. If people knew they would be very surprised. It will be a big story - big as Watergate - when it comes out. Their usage of these high-tech methods for access is difficult, so not used often. The government is trying to cover up their reaction to what he wrote in his essays. ------------------- <end of message>

Covert Access to Data and ID
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Dave Emery's remarks on government access to keystrokes (proposed by the NYT as an alternative to GAK) points to the probable increase of intrusive devices to counter increasing use of encryption and other privacy and anonymity measures. This topic comes up here now and then, with mentions of a slew of methods to protect privacy of data during transmission or storage. But the possibility of logging the initial creation or manipulation of data is not as often discussed, nor how to tie a person to the data, as now being asked in legal and law enforcement fora to identify, catch, convict and jail computer culprits. That the NYT floated the idea surely means someone is testing public response to an idea that seems to be more intrusive than GAK: the logging of initial data and any manipulation of it, prior to encrypting, and maybe including a means to link the actions to the user. If this is logging (and related retrieval) is done covertly, encryption could thereby become a falsely reassuring cloak of privacy. Dave thinks devices like these are surely in the works, and he can say more about their sponsors, technologies and implementations. One driving force, as he previously noted, is the desire for devices to assure copyright protection, backed by the WIPO treaty, which now being considered for approval. See the House report on it at: http://jya.com/hr105-551.txt (141K) And the EFF and ACLU opposition to it: hr2281-opp.htm Other forces, though, are employers who want to snoop, law enforcement, government, marketers, actually the same groups who dislike privacy protection measures, but often prefer to snoop covertly while loudly proclaiming support for privacy. Thus, the more general question Dave has raised is how widespread is the development and implementation of technolgies for covert surveillance on the Web and in desktop boxes -- happily spreading quietly while attention is focussed on the very encryption which it will circumvent? And what are these devices, or what might they be, what might be countermeasures and who might be working for and against them. SDA must have insights to share. Over to Dave Emery and those more knowledgeable. For those who missed his earlier message we've put it, with a follow-up at: http://jya.com/gaks-de.htm

*You are receiving this one time financial e-mail because you have expressed interest in Internet stocks. Your name will automatically be REMOVED. __________________________________________________________ THE NEXT AOL!!?? Pla.net America, Inc. Symbol: PNTC Price: 3 "Pla.net may in the mid to long term go as high as $15-20 per share based on projected EPS and a book value of $11.64", an Internet analyst states. Pla.net's (LAW) incorporates a Lotus Domino platform hosted by the IBM Global Network. The result is a level of speed, reliability and security not easily matched in the online world. Pla.net is ahead of schedule for their North America-wide launch on September 14th. On September 14th, Pla.net will be ready to light up North America with 62 sites activated, covering every state capital, plus Washington D.C. and Ottawa Canada. Pla.net's Intranet system is designed to capitalize on the fact that 90% of commerce is done locally. The Company plans on selling over 325 sites in the U. S. over a 3-year period. The offering price on each site sold gives the Company $500,000, per site, in the initial phase of development. R.J. Prichard & Associates has determined that the IP (Pla.net's Intranet solution software) is valued at over $65,000,000 as of August 1, 1998. This valuation is a significant increase from the previous Valuation of the "Smart Community Software" dated November 18, 1994 and updated on December 21, 1995. At the time the Valuation came in at 6 million and 8 million respectively. This analyst believes, and we quote, "Pla.net is the only Internet stock currently trading at 25% of its book value". "With a market cap of 17 million and a book value of 65 million Pla.net is poised to break out at or around $5.00 per share", he adds.

"Unbreakable Crypto" announcement??
by Fade 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Does anyone with access to the Financial Times know what the hell this snippet is talking about?? -=fade=- ENCRYPTION BREAKTHROUGH ANNOUNCED TODAY August 24, 1998 According to the Financial Times a new "unbreakable" encryption technology, called the "Cramer-Shoup cryptosystem," will be annouced today by mathematicians from the International Federal Institute of Technology which supposedly will thwart even the most aggressive Internet hackers. They claim to have created the first "unbreakable protection" which would reportedly be a breakthrough that could ensure the security of electronic commerce. The Financial Times said, "The breakthrough comes amid growing anxiety about the vulnerability of Internet transactions since the discovery by researchers earlier this year of a new way to break through even the strongest encryption systems."

Announcement: $10,000 Twofish Cryptanalysis Contest
by Bruce Schneier 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

To stimulate research into Twofish, the designers are putting their money where their mathematics is. They are offering $10,000 in prize money for the best attack on Twofish during the first round of the AES evaluation. This contest is very different from most other cryptanalysis contests. There is no ciphertext to decrypt, and no key to find. Instead, the $8,000 first prize will be awarded to the person or group (other than the Twofish design team) that publishes the best cryptanalysis of Twofish. The runner up will get a $2,000 second prize. To qualify the cryptanalysis has to contain a significant new result not published earlier by the Twofish team. If no new results are published, the prizes will not be awarded. The deadline of the contest is NIST's deadline for first-round AES comments; the result should be presented in a format compatible with the NIST requirements for first-round comments. Decisions of the judges (the Twofish design team) are final. Good luck, Bruce ********************************************************************** Bruce Schneier, President, Counterpane Systems Phone: 612-823-1098 101 E Minnehaha Parkway, Minneapolis, MN 55419 Fax: 612-823-1590 Free crypto newsletter.

summary of recent meeting with top Mondex officials (fwd)
by M Taylor 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

---------- Forwarded message ---------- Sender: efc-talk-owner(a)insight.cas.mcmaster.ca Subject: summary of recent meeting with top Mondex officials Date: Mon, 24 Aug 1998 14:07:40 -0400 (EDT) To: efc-talk(a)insight.cas.mcmaster.ca From: David Jones <djones(a)insight.cas.mcmaster.ca> Mondex meeting I would like to give a brief synopsis of the meeting that I attended two Fridays ago (August 14th) in Toronto. Present were: Joanne De Laurentiis, President & CEO, Mondex Canada David Phillips, Vice-President, General Counsel, Mondex Canada Deen Farouk, Director, Mondex Canada Mark Tonnesen, Executive Vice-President, Card Services, Royal Bank David Braidwood, Senior Manager, Standards and Security, Royal Bank Martyn Cooper, Senior Manager, Smart Card Industry, Royal Bank Ann Cavoukian, Privacy Commissioner of Ontario Carol Markusoff, Policy Analyst, Ontario Privacy Commission Peter Hope-Tindall, XL Consulting, Special Advisor to Privacy Commissioner David Jones, President, Electronic Frontier Canada The purpose of the meeting was to have an open discussion about privacy and security of the Mondex electronic payment system. As most of you probably know, Mondex value can be transfered between smart-cards to make purchases and new value can be downloaded onto the cards from bank ATMs or over the phone. For some (highly critical) background, please see: "Mondex: A House of Smart-Cards?" http://www.efc.ca/pages/media/convergence.12jul97.html What actually prompted the meeting was an article that appeared this summer in the June issue of the Financial Post Magazine. "Mondo Mondex" http://www.efc.ca/pages/media/financial-post-magazine.01jun98.html The meeting got off to an amusing start as two bankers remarked that I wasn't wearing a tie, although I must say I thought I was dressed quite fashionably, ... for a professor. I made some remark about "casual Fridays", but it didn't seem to help. The fact that I had taken a *bus* in from Hamilton that morning also seemed to be another clear indication to all present that I didn't hang around in the same circles as these senior bankers. I must say, it was a very cordial, informative, and interesting meeting. Everyone was quite charming and clearly expert in their own fields. They outlined the different roles that the banks and Mondex play in the system, including a separate corporate entity called the "Mondex Canada Originator" that actually "prints money", in the sense that it issues *new* value on Mondex cards. This is the only place this occurs: the banks, merchants, and consumers merely push value around in the system, from card to card. Interestingly, the "Mondex Canada Originator" is not recognized as a bank, and is not even recognized as a financial institution by Canadian authorities. The "float", the account holding real Canadian dollars to back up "value" stored on cards, is invested to earn a profit, but is *not* backed up by any federal deposit insurance. The current implementation of the Mondex system uses a well-known "symmetric" encryption algorithm for security, implemented on a Hitachi H8/3102 chip. Interestingly, the value of transactions is transferred "in the clear" between cards. Encryption is used for digital signatures. Each card has a transaction log that stores the following information about up to 10 transactions: PID,AMT,NAR,AMT,CUR,TIM,SEQ1,SEQ2 PID = purse ID of the *other* card NAR = 12 characters of "narrative" information (e.g. customer/vendor name) AMT = amount of value transferred CUR = currency used TIM = timestamp (from retail machine or consumer wallet, may be inaccurate) SEQ1= unique transaction sequence number for *this* purse SEQ2= unique transaction sequence number for the *other* purse It's at this point that the privacy commissioner, Ann Cavoukian, started asking questions about how this transaction data gets used. Although merchant terminals are able to capture all of this information, and even have a modem to transmit it back to banks, we were told that this is not done in Guelph, in part because there is not (yet) any software on the bank end to process the data. There was also the suggestion that, in the future, Mondex might choose to rely on contractual limitations on the use of the data to prevent some vendors (e.g., Walmart) from using the information for data mining. I am fairly willing to accept that there are not any terrible privacy problems with Mondex in Guelph *today*, but it is much more murky when we look to the future and imagine how the system may eventually be used. When discussing security and the potential for "hackers" to create counterfeit Mondex value, it became apparent that the banks themselves are doing nothing at all to deal with security. It seems to me that a good analogy could be made with how banks deal with credit cards: They depend on the credit card company to worry about security and fraud. With Mondex, the banks are relying on the chip's use of encryption and their "tamper-resistance" (meaning they are supposed to lock up if you mess around with them). Only the "Mondex Canada Originator" has a "crude" risk management system, which monitors that balance of funds sitting in the "float" account and monitors uploads and downloads between banks and merchants/customers. If usage patterns deviates outside normal fluctuations, on the order of 3-4%, then an alarm is raised to investigate. In the Guelph pilot, this alarm has gone off "about 5 times", (false alarms, since there has not been any fraud). In the "unlikely" scenario, that counterfeit Mondex value is created, the system is supposed to be able to contain the flow of fraudulent value and limit the damage that might occur. It is surrounding this point that there seems to be a great deal of confusion and contradictory information coming from Mondex. For instance, on their web site, Mondex says: Detection: On-Chip Security The Mondex chip has its own risk management measures, built-in to the chip itself. The chips are programmed to automatically react to 'unusual' card behaviour, such as very high levels of value redemption and temporarily close down. URL= http://www.mondex.com/mondex/cgi-bin/... .../printpage.pl?fname=../documents/detection.txt&doctype=genp Well, as far as I can tell, based on what I heard at the meeting, the statement above is not correct. On a related page, Mondex says: Recovery: Rogue Cards Naturally cards identified as being unauthorised, reported stolen, or potentially fraudulent can delinked immediately from the banking system. URL= http://www.mondex.com/mondex/cgi-bin/... .../printpage.pl?fname=../documents/recovery.txt&doctype=genp It turns out this statement, as far as I can tell, is also not correct. The "Mondex Canada Originator" has no authority and no technical ability to "delink" a card. The Banks also seem to lack the ability to remotely deactivate cards through their ATMs. I asked how many times cards in Guelph had been locked out because of suspicious behaviour. I was told "zero times". On an interesting technical note, we were told that Mondex cards use a seven-step protocol to transfer value from one card to another. It is not possible to "create" value by interrupting a transaction, but it is possible to "destroy" value, if one card has debited its value records before the other has credited its value. In such a case, the card is supposed to keep a record of this "exception", so the bank can later re-imburse the consumer for the lost value. We were told that approximately $4,600 has been paid out to customers for such failed transactions. To put this in context, so far about $2 million has been issued on Mondex cards in the 18 month pilot study, so this means roughly 0.25% of value gets destroyed by errant transactions. The discussion about security explored various "scenarios" about how someone might try to extract value from the system, assuming that it was even possible to "hack" a Mondex card. This so exasperated the Exec VP with the Royal Bank, Mark Tonnesen, that he turned to me and said, "Look, I'll pay you $100,000 if you can create fake Mondex value". Hmmm, maybe I'll just take him up on his offer. ;-) ;-) -- David Jones - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Prof. David G.

After all, we all know that blacks are so descriminated against. That's why we "need" such things as quotas, affirmative action, "dumbing down" of test scores, special versions of standardized tests for blacks, ebonics, and other such great ideas. Therefore, analyzing the government party line, it is perfectly reasonable to have assumed that blacks would always be so descriminated against as to never get hired for such a position. Right.

However, you are certainly not limited to twenty. Mail out as many as you can. Every twenty letters you send has a return to you of $10,000 or more. If you can mail forty, sixty, eighty, or whatever, GO FOR IT! THE MORE YOU PUT INTO IT, THE MORE YOU GET OUT OF IT! Each time you run this program, just follow the steps (1) through (3) and everyone on your gift list benefits! Simple enough? You bet it is! Besides, there are no mailing lists to buy (and wait for), no further trips to the printer or copiers, and you can do it again and again with your regular groups of gifters, or start up a new group. Some people produce a mailing list of opportunity seekers and send out 200 or more. Why not? It beats working! Each time you receive a MLM offer in the mail, respond with THIS letter! Your name will climb to the number one position at dizzying geometric rates. Follow the simple instructions and above all, please "PLAY FAIR." That's the key to this program's success. Your name must run the "full gamut" on the list to produce the end results. "Sneaking" your name higher up on the list WILL NOT produce the results you think, and it only cheats the other people who have worked hard and earned the right to be there. So please, play by the rules and the $$, $$$ will come to you! --------Mail Your Letters Out Today-------- $$$ TOGETHER, WE WILL PROSPER $$$ Mail your US$5.00 "Gift" to the first name on the list ONLY. Remove the first name and move the other two up one place and put your name in the #3 position. GOOD LUCK! ******************************************************************** 1 J Penzak 12 Boileau Ave Easton, PA 18042 2 A Ladad 121 W Mountain Rd Apt 6 Allentown, PA 18103 3 Chris K 328 N Spaulding Ave Apt 2 Los Angeles, CA 90036 ******************************************************************* Wishing you the best in all you do! "I'm money conscious, but I also knew that I would just as easily spend $5.00 on junk food or something else that wouldn't amount to much. You probably don't believe this will work, but if you don't try it you will never know. That's the way I felt. Try it. You won't be sorry. Best wishes in all your ventures.

You have read and heard the stories in the media, -"COMPUTERS WILL SHUT DOWN IN THE YEAR 2000!" What will your computer do when the NEW MILLENNIUM hits?? I have developed a new program, that will check your computer and give you the results in just a few short minutes! It is simple to run ,easy to understand and very affordable. There is no need to take your computer into a computer service depot to get the same results, that would probably cost you 100's of dollars more! You will now be armed with the info you need to know, if only a simple BIOS upgrade is needed! Believe me when I tell you, a lot of computer service depots are going to get rich, in trying to convince you that you either need a new computer or a full upgrade is necessary!! Our software will show you at a glance what your computer's capabilities are, it will give you the required recommendations of what you should and can't do The software is available two ways - The simple easy way is by file attached email. You just copy the file to a floppy disk and run it. If you prefer the program be sent to you already on 31/2 or 51/4 floppy, the cost is slightly more. Cost of software............$20.00 US funds - Email (file attached) make sure you include your email address!!! $25.00 US funds - floppy disk - (please specify) All funds to be in US dollars only and to be paid by Postal Money Order or Cash. Please include self-addressed stamped envelope for software on floppies. Send to....... Year 2000 8 Poplar Street, Leamington, Ontario, Canada N8H 3L4 http://www.netcore.ca/~panazoom Due to the overwhelming response we have been experiencing so far, please allow one week for the email file and two to three weeks for the floppies.

Is hate code speech?
by proff＠suburbia.net 17 Dec '03

IS YOUR FAVORITE COMPUTER PROGRAM RACIST? Texas programmer sues former employer over offensive code. When Willa Jackson started working the night shift at Integrated Systech in Austin, Texas, she felt she was entering a world filled with opportunity. Jackson had just completed three years of intensive course work in computer programming at a local community college and, at the age of 47, had recently been hired by the successful software developer. Her night-shift position at IS was to be Jackson's first non-minimum wage job. But that optimism soon turned to shame and then anger as Jackson discovered that many of her colleagues at IS were accustomed to making racist jokes in the office. In fact, the epithets were never actually uttered in Jackson's presence, they were encoded within the dozens of software applications being developed at IS. Her painful discovery occurred less than one month after she began working as an entry-level programming assistant. It was Jackson's responsibility to find bugs in sections of code that other, higher-level IS programmers produced during the day. But when Jackson -- an African-American woman who hopes to one day launch her own software startup -- began to dig deeper into a faulty section of source code she was mortified by what she found. Programmers at the company had been using racist monikers and explicit sexual language in the variables used by their programs to sort information. In one instance, a program had been instructed to "fetch watermelons" and "somefriedchicken" when handling a certain procedure. The handler had even been dubbed "pickaninny" and was only one of several dozen like sequences embedded in IS programs designed for home and office use. When Jackson showed the racist code to her supervisor she was assured that IS would act decisively to reprimand and possibly even dismiss the offending employee. But as weeks passed and no one approached Jackson with a follow-up to her complaint, she began to suspect that no disciplinary action would be forthcoming. At that point, Jackson began to pore over the mountains of used code that IS had stockpiled over the past six years. Much to her dismay, Jackson discovered derogatory and occasionally violent terms inside the programming language used by almost all IS software programs. "It went all the way back to the first version of ISDisk," explains an incredulous Jackson, "and they never bothered to hide it." Shortly after she had printed out over a thousand pages of tainted code, Jackson hired an attorney and filed a $10 million dollar lawsuit against the profitable software firm. Just who is responsible for the recurring use of discriminatory language in the company's computer code is still a mystery. IS executives have issued several public apologies since the lawsuit began, but they have yet to cooperate with the investigation into its allegedly hostile work environment. In 1996, Texaco paid out $140 million to resolve a similar lawsuit brought by its minority employees. But labor law experts speculate that the IS case may never be resolved due to the unprecedented circumstances of the alleged misconduct. "No jury in this state will believe that the code Jackson found is speech," argues Mitch Shapson, an attorney with the labor relations firm of Stennis, Shapson & Velasquez. "Even if they did think the messages hidden inside the programs were offensive," continues Shapson, "it would be like trying an auto manufacturer for putting a Swastika-shaped part in your car's engine." Jackson, who is now working as a full-time programmer at Dell Computers in San Antonio, is not willing to give up her fight against IS despite the slim chances of a legal victory. "At this point, I'm not interested in the money," claims an unbowed Jackson, "I only want the public to think twice about the kinds of hateful messages that may be hidden inside the software they use everyday."
