One Nation web site temporarily off-line
by Global Web Builders 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Dear One Nation supporter in NSW You will note from my email that I am not using the normal gwb(a)gwb.com.au address. Last night at about 6.30pm Optus "pulled the plug" on my Internet Service Provider (Pronet) who I have NOW been informed are facing financial difficulties. (I only found out today after making enquiries as to why I could not access my ISP.) This has caused all contact with the "gwb" web sites (which includes One Nation) to be cut off. If you try to contact them you will come up with a "DNS error". I am currently relocating the web site and will be seeking a new ISP who can offer One Nation "the best deal". This will take some time, perhaps a few days, and in the mean time I apologise for any inconvenience. As soon as the One Nation website is up and running I will advise you. Please note that the Internet address will remain the same as it was. In the meantime be assured that One Nation being "off air" is not related to any conspiracy, lack of support from our part or any other misinformation that might be fed to you through the media. As always GWB stands 100% behind Pauline Hanson and her competent team. GWB Scott Balson

17 Dec '03

This is your WAKE-UP call... ...INTRODUCING "THE BREAKFAST CLUB" A ONE-TIME $39 PURCHASE CAN CONCEIVABLY EARN OVER $100,000 ANNUALLY FOR ANYONE WHO WILL WORK THIS PROGRAM! DID I SAY WORK? HA! ...LET'S CHECK IT OUT!!! What you are holding in your hand is perhaps the most exciting networking opportunity to come down the pike, EVER! There are numerous reasons why this is so, but lets first look at the most obvious.... ... 30 BOXES OF CEREAL FOR $39,00........ The vehicle for this outstanding bargain is a coupon book with 30 vouchers, each good for a box of your favorite Name Brand cereal delivered to your door with no shipping charges. That translates into the lowest price for Brand Name Cereal on the planet! Period!! Couple this with a networking opportunity using the most advanced compensation plan in the industry, namely a 3 X 5 forced matrix with double matching bonus, and it's a can't miss!!!! Here are some other reasons that even for non-networkers spell BIG BUCKS! 1) A $39 one time purchase, one of the lowest in the industry. 2) Product recognition! A product almost everyone in the country is already using, and paying too much for. 3) Mass appeal. Networkers have been searching for years to find a product that would appeal to the masses. Breakfast cereal is as good as it gets! Our own local study showed 65 interested people out of 80 interviews! Many signed up on the spot!!! 4) Finally a product in MLM that offers real savings! The average box of cereal costs over $3 in the store, with many topping the $4 mark. Do the math. With our deal, the price for any cereal delivered to your door is $1.62. Yes, that's right, one dollar and sixty-two cents!! WELL, THERE IT IS... ...I CAN ONLY SAY THAT THIS ONE IS GOING TO GO INTO HYPER-DRiVE IN A BIG HURRY, SO YOU BETTER GET YOUR TICKET AND HANG ON!!! SIGN UP BELOW! ********************************************************* "THE BREAKFAST CLUB" 7267 AIRPORT ROAD BATH, PA 18014 WHAT IS THE "BREAKFAST CLUB"? "The Breakfast Club" is a network marketing company combining a substantial savings on a commodity which, almost all Americans use, with the income potential of network marketing! This commodity is the Breakfast Cereals which we are all familiar with, PRODUCT: The current product is a "Name Brand" cereal coupon book. This coupon book offers "BIG" savings on your favorite cereals. Almost any cereal, delivered to your door with no shipping charge to you, for the low price of $1.62 (this price includes the cost of the coupon and the cost of the postage to send the order, blank for redemption) EVEN CEREAL THAT COSTS OVER $4.00 IN THE GROCERY STORE CAN BE DELIVERED TO YOUR DOOR FOR $1.62 The coupon book contains 30 coupons, each good for a box of name brand cereal. What this means is that this is a guaranteed value of up to $120.00 for the cost of only $39 to you! HOW DO I TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS OPPORTUNITY? The answer is simple, as is the entire concept of this program. Just fill in the application / order form and send it with the proper payment to the address above. We will ship your coupon book to you within a few days, and you can send for your first box of cereal. WHAT IS THE COMPENSATION PLAN? Again, the answer is simple. The compensation plan is a 3 x 5 forced matrix, with a double matching bonus feature, The matching bonus is earned when you personally sponsor 3 people, and the double matching feature kicks in when your second level is completed, not necessarily personally sponsored. This means that you would have 12 total people on these two levels in your organization. You would then match the matrix checks, of the three people whom you personally sponsored, and the matrix checks of those who they personally sponsored. There is $1 on each level of the matrix which means that a complete matrix has a potential payout of $363, which is the total number of people. Therefore, the matching bonus feature gives you 3 more matrix payouts, or an additional $1,089 when your personally sponsored people complete their matrix. The double match bonus will give you any number of additional matching checks, based entirely on the number of people that your personally sponsored people sponsor. Note: You match only the matrix payout of your sponsored and their sponsored. You never match a matching bonus! The potential with this plan is awesome. If you follow this scenario you will see that the more people whom you sponsor, and whom they sponsor, will give you matching check after check, with almost no limit if you continue to sponsor. This program could literally pay out over $100,000 on only a $39 purchase. "THE BREAKFAST CLUB" TERMS AND CONDITIONS 1) The price for the coupon book is $39.00. The coupon books are numbered and registered, and tracking goes into effect at first redemption. 2) The accepted form of payment will be by money order only. No personal checks, no credit cards. All payments sent other than money order will be returned. 3) The compensation plan is a 3 x 5 forced matrix, there will be no placement. The computer will fill automatically left to right, based on personal sponsorship. This will allow for significant spillover. 4) This program will be basically a mail-order program. There will be no customer service by phone. Any questions which you may have which are not answered by this document you may address to the Company by mail or by fax. We will respond in the same manner. 5) Since there is no placement, a genealogy report will only be important when you receive a check. You will automatically receive one when a check is cut for you. 6) "The Breakfast Club' will calculate revenue share weekly, and pay weekly. The week shall run from Monday through Saturday, and the revenue share will be calculated on Monday for the previous week's activity.The check will be cut and mailed by Wednesday every week. 7) A check will not be printed until the accrued revenue share is at least $12.00. There will be a charge of $2.00 assessed for each check. This will defray the cost of the check, bank charges, and the cost of the genealogy which will be sent with each check. Therefore, on accrued revenue of $12.00, after the charge, the check will be $10.00. This charge will remain at $2.00 as long as the genealogy is only one page. As your organization grows, the charge will be .50 for each additional page. 8) You will receive complete instructions on how to use the program, and how to order your cereal with your kit. 9) Our refund policy is very simple. We have a revenue share program, so money earned is not commission but profit sharing. This means that if you wish to leave the program at any time within 90 days, the following rules apply: a) The coupon book must be in salable condion, with NO coupons missing. b) The book registration fee and shipping is NOT refundable, totaling $9.00. Refunds will be $30.00 only. c) If you have been paid any revenue share money, that will be deducted also. If you have been paid more money than the cost of the book(s), there will be no refund. d) After 90 days, there is no refund. 10) There will be company sponsored conference calls. Times and phone numbers will be announced when you receive your kit. I 1) You must sign and return this "Terms and Conditions' document with your application/order form. 12) I have read and fully understand the terms and condtions of "The Breakfast Club."

PLEASE REMEMBER, WE ACCEPT MONEY ORDERS ONLY AND YOU MUST SEND IN BOTH FORMS: 1. ORDER FORM WITH YOUR $39.OO MONEY ORDER 2. A SIGNED TERMS AND CONDITIONS FORM MOST COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT "THE BREAKFAST CLUB" Q. How can anyone deliver breakfast Cereal to your door for this price? ($1.62) A. The cereal is merely a vehicle for advertising. With the cost of direct mail advertising skyrocketing, and the readerslip relatively low for what is considered by most to be junk mail, this method of lost leader marketing is extremely desirable. Because people are waiting for their cereal, and they will be looking for their next order blank, the readership of the piggy-back advertising in the box is very high. Due to this fact, advertisers are willing to pay handsomely for this type of direct mail program. Q. Is that why I can only use one coupon at a time, and must wait for my cereal to arrive before I can order again? A. Yes. The advertising would do little good for anyone, nor could the cost of the loss leader be amortized if too much of the advertisers material should go to the same address in too short a time. Q. Wasn't this program tried before, like around two years ago? What happened to it then? A- Yes, it was tied in late 1995 into early 1996. The firm that was behind the concept did not anticipate the overwhelming response which they received. Coupled with the fact that they did not have the advertising dollars in place that they represented, collapse was inevitable. Q. Why is it any different now? A. The Company that is running this campaign is fully aware of the importance of keeping up with the demand. So much so, in fact, they have already put the data processing in place to scan the coupons into the system instead of waiting until they are overwhelmed. Also, and more importantly, they have the contracts in place from many advertisers to offset the cost of delivering the cereal. In other words, they have enough advertising dollars to cover the cost of every delivery. Q. What about the network marketing part of this program? Does "The Breakfast Club" have control, or will there be competition? A- Not only does "'The Breakfast Club" have an exclusive network marketing contract, but we will be collaborating with The Majestic Group, owners of the cereal book, on future books. There is a very bright future ahead for our distributors. Q. Why is there no telephone customer service provided by "The Breakfast Club" for its distributors? A. It boils down to one word, COST! This is not a high ticket, and until other products are ready to offer to the distributor base, we must control the expense of operation. This is not a complicated business, and most questions can be answered by this document. However, we anticipate that there could be questions that we can not answer to a distributors satisfaction here, so we will answer questions either by fax, mail or on a live conference call which will be conducted one hour each day, Monday through Friday. The number and time for this call is at the end of this document. Q. The compensation plan is a 3 x 5 forced matrix with a "double matching bonus" feature. What is a double matching bonus and how does it work? A. Double matching bonus simply means that you match the matrix checks earned by the people whom you sponsor personally, and those who they sponsor as well. This, of course, depends on your reaching the criteria which determine whether or not you will earn matching and double matching bonus. Q. What is the criteria to earn matching and double matching bonus, and how does it fit into the marketing plan? A. The criteria for matching and double matching bonus is really very easy to understand, and not difficult to attain. In fact, the entire marketing plan is so simple you could explain it on a napkin in a restaurant. Here it is in a nutshell...... you sign up and purchase a coupon book for Name Brand Cereal. You personally sponsor 3 who do the same and you qualify for matching bonus. Fill your second level, a total of 9 more people, whether or not they are your personally sponsored, and you now qualify for double matching bonus. Just by signing up and making your first purchase of a coupon book for $39, you are entitled to a revenue share of $1 per level, for each of 5 levels of purchasers just like yourself A 3 x 5 matrix has the potential when full to hold 363 customers, which will pay $363. Now here is where the fun starts. For every person whom you personally sponsor into the program you will match every revenue share check which they are paid, provided that you sponsor a total of 2 distributors personally. That means that if they fill their matrix, you will earn an additional check of $363. Here is the best part! If your personally sponsored distributor goes out and sponsors any number of other people, providing you meet the criteria for double match, you will be paid a revenue share equal to whatever they are paid, even if it is 5, 10, 50 or 100 people. This means that you can make many times the value of a full matrix in this program by sponsoring only 1 person who goes out and sponsors ma! ny!! Do the math. Awesome! Q. When will checks be issued? A. We will caculate weekly, and pay revenue share weekly. The week will begin on Monday, and end on Friday. Checks will be cut and mailed by Wednesday every week. Q. Why is there a charge for issuing checks? A. Again the answer is COST. Because of the sheer number of checks which we anticipate sending out, we must make allowance for this expense. Remember, this is a low cost program with a relatively high revenue share potential. Consequently we will only send checks when they have calculated to be at least $12. After deducting the $2 check charge, we would be sending a net of $10. Also, since there will be a genealogy sent with every check, this charge will help cover it as well. Note: the charge will remain $2 as long as the genealogy is only one page. It will be an additional .50 for every page after the first. Q. Are we required to sign and send in the "Terms and Conditions" document? A. Yes, The terms and conditions of our program will be upheld, and it is important that you agree to them in writing or your application will not be accepted. Note: the newer application has a disclaimer which states that you have read and agree to the terms and conditions. This will allow someone to fax an application to a third party before they send in the actual signed document to the Company. Q. What about our identification number for sponsoring purposes? A. We will use your Social Security Number as your temporary ID# A new number will be issued to you and sent with your book. Our program can identify you either with your temporary number or your company issued number, so you can sponsor even before you actually receive your new number, LOOK FOR YOUR ID# ON YOUR ADDRESS LABEL AND ON YOUR WELCOME LETTER. 1) No applications will be accepted without the signed terms and conditions document, unless a new form is used and the disclaimer is signed. 2) No applications will be accepted if all the information is not present to allow proper entry into the computer system. Any applications received with incomplete information will be returned to sender. We are not mind readers nor are we omniscient. Also, applications which are illegible will be returned. We will not guess what is written on them. 3) Since there is no placement in this program there will be no orphan file created by placement problems. However, there could be occasions when someone sends in an application expecting their sponsor to do likewise, but he or she does not. We will hold the appplication for 5 business days, and if the sponsor application does not materialize, we will return the orphan application back to the sender. 4) Another situation which could sometimes happen is mail being lost. Here again, if the sponsor application does not arrive within 5 business days, we will be forced to return the orphan application. 5) We will always attempt to answer all questions in a timely and diligent fashion. However, we anticipate rapid growth and understand that there will be times when we cannot. We encourage you to get on the conference calls, or turn to your upline whenever you need information that you carmot get from the Company. 6) We will absolutely not tolerate any misrepresentation of our products or our program from any distributor. This will be grounds for immediate termination and loss of any revenue share. 7) Whenever we are about to release a new product into the matrix, we will notify everyone at least a month before. This notification will be as an announcement in your check envelope, with your cereal delivery, or as a fax on demand document. 8) Revenue share will only be paid on a product if you yourself own it. In other words, as we release different products into the matrix, if you do not own that product, you will not earn revenue share on it from downfine purchases. Remember, it is not a requirement to own all our products, but it will be your decision as to whether or not you wish to earn additional revenue share based on the new products, 9) You may note that on your genealogy reports, persons whom you sponsored yourself may show up as being sponsored by someone else. That is not a mistake in the program! In order for the computer to place people in the matrix, it must assign sponsorship. This does not take sponsorship away from you, but is merely the way in which the computer builds the matrix. When this occurs, you now become the enroller, which keeps the credit for personal sponsorship with you, where it belongs. GOOD LUCK AND SEE YOU AT THE TOP!

CypherPunks CensorShip Crisis II - SPACE ALIENS HIDE MY DRUGS!!!

Beyond The Valley Of The Planet Of The Return Of The Son Of The Uncle Of The Mother Of All Censorship Crisies II SPACE ALIENS HIDE M DRUGS!!! _____________________________ * To: cypherpunks(a)toad.com * Subject: Linda Reed--PCC West Campus CSC <lreed(a)west.cscwc.pima.edu>: Re: Army of Dog SPACE ALIENS HIDE M DRUGS!!! * From: one4evil(a)juno.com (Nalus Optic) * Date: Fri, 3 Jul 1998 10:49:09 -0700 * Sender: owner-cypherpunks(a)Algebra.COM I was asked to forward this message to the Cypherpunks list by Linda Reed...Who sent it to me as a responce to one of my e-mails...I know that by doing so, I risk being kicked, stomped, beated siverly amongst the neck and shoulders, and even flamed...But I think so many of us are not looking at the true messages involved in these 'spams'. Reed is makeing several REALL good points...Given, Reed does rant a bit...And some of what is writen is just so much bullshit...But all of it, taken in context, is Truth (TM)... Let me make a suggestion to Reed and all others involved...There is a time and place for everything...The time for rEvolution, as Reed puts it, is _NOW!_ However, Cypherpunks is not the place...So does anyone know of any good e-lists that would love to get the ALIANS posts? Maybe your five minute's of thought on a way to help Reed will make everyone happy, Vs the hours some of us are spending complaining about the damn thing. [Gnat From The Author: As the Author, We personally believe that <infinity.nus.sg> should forcefully unsubscibe itself from the CypherPunks Distributed Node Mailing Lists, since it is the website which the Author is currently using to read the list posts. As well, We feel that Linda Reed <lreed(a)west.cscwc.pima.edu> should take steps to block her email account from being sent to any site on the InterNet, as it is being used, with or without her consent, to generate UCE/SPAM. In addition, We feel that all CypherPunks Distributed Node Mailing List members should forcefully unsubscribe themselves from the lists, as spammers, since it is enevitable that there is someone on the list who considers their posts irrelevant, off-topic, or SPAM, at one point or another. In the future, the Author would be happy to provide a filtered version of the CypherPunks Distributed Node Mailing List which would be distributed freely to all CypherPunks whose non-union dues are currently paid up to date. The filtered version would contain complete copies of all posts routed through the current CypherPunks Distributed Mailing List Nodes, without any deletions or censorship, in accordance with CypherPunks Goals and Traditions. For a slight extra fee, the Authors would also be happy to provide special, Enhanced Editions of the CypherPunks Filtered Mailing List: 1. ASCII Art Edition: Containing classic reprints of Timmy C. Mayonnaise ASCII-Art SPAMS, complete with Forged Digital Signatures of Dr. Dimitri Vulis, KOTM, along with a Certificate of Genuine Authenticity Digitally Signed with the Electronic Forgery Foundation's Pretty Lousy Privacy Key. 2. Censorship Crisis II Edition: Offers the convenience of recreating the original posts for and against censorship of the CypherPunks list, substiuting the names, email addresses and digital signatures of current list members, saving list members hours of rehashing old issues, while maintaining the emotionally volatile atmosphere regarding an argument that is logically ridiculous to argue about in the first place, given the nature of the CypherPunks list. !!!PLUS!!! As An Added Bonus: (At No Extra Charge!) * A complete pro-censorship and anti-censorship thread dealing specifically with the SPAMing of SAHMD chapters to the CypherPunks list, with each post written and autographed the the Author HimOrHerSelf! * A Classic Collection of past posts by both legendary and long-forgotten CypherPunks, quoting and misquoting the "Doomed to Learn From the Mistakes of the Past" (or whatever) quote.(A 5MB package, by itself, alone!) * A Superb Collection of Lame-AND/OR-Offensive Posts categorized under such headings as UNSCRIBIBVE, LAME, RACIST, CHILDISH, 'I BROKE PGP!', 'NEW UNBREAKABLE ENCRPTION ALGORERHTHM', , RE: , STUPID, AOL, 'I THINK WE SHOULD ALL SEND TEN COPIES OF THIS POST BACK TO DIMITRI', and one of the all-time favorites of many Veteran Elitist CypherPunks List Members, 'TEST'. 3. Pre-Checked Archive Edition: Each post is marked with a special flag to indicate whether or not the post is duplicative of a subject discussed, or a point made by, Tim C. May at some time in the history of the CypherPunks list, as well as a flag indicating whether or not the post agrees with Mr. May's past theories and views, so that they can be efficiently deleted in order not to waste the reader's time with BadInformation, one way or the other. Those pre-dating their orders for an Enhanced Edition of the Author's Filtered CypherPunks Mailing List to December 7, 1989, or forging Tim C. May's digital signature to their order, will receive copies of Nalus Optic's coming post to list, whining about how HisOrHer original post *NEVER* called for censorship, Tim C. May's future reply that this is obviously the work of that asshole, Toto, again, Robert Hettinga's future post that he *loves* this list, another post from Tim C. May, obviously forged by Toto, saying that he can't find his shoes *or* his goddamn dentures, and a variety of future posts from various list members stating: "Just ignore him." "Don't you people have delete keys?" "Happy Fourth of July!" "I'm putting Toto back in my KillFile!" "I never took him out of mine, I just read his posts by accident when I read all of the posts in my KillFile, to make sure I'm not deleting anything important." "<Plonk!>" "Have a good Labor Day!" "Unscrrvive" "Unrivcribe cypherpunks <Lamer(a)AOL.COM>" "Unsvribe <Lamer(a)AOL.COM> cypherpunks" "Uncribive cypherpunks" "Unsrivribe <Lamer(a)AOL.COM>" "Merry Chrismas Everybody!" "Take me off this goddamn list!" "TAKE ME OFF THIS LIST! I MEAN IT!!!" "Happpy Holidays and a Happy New ear" "Please take me off this list, ok? Please, somebody?" "OK OU ASHOLES! IM GOING TO KEEP THIS UP UNTIL OU..." DISCLAIMER: The Author is in no way implying that those who do not wish to take advantage of this tremendous offer are not free to just contine their involvement in the Cypherpunks list and use methods of subscribing and posting pretty much the same as they did before deleting this offer without reading it. However, HeOrShe reserves the right to bill all who receive this offer the full amount of the CypherPunks current non-union dues, if this offer is not returned to the CypherPunks mailing list they received it from, in it's original condition, with full message headers, within thirty minutes or less of its original posting.]

NSA , FBI, and Sandia labs - and stolen weapons
by bill payne 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Saturday 7/4/98 1:20 PM Laszlo Baranyi I read http://www.qainfo.se/~lb/crypto_ag.htm I will look in my files for a paper published in the Association of Computing Machinery authored by G. J. Simmons on the COVERT CHANNEL. Then e-mail you an exact reference. Information FORCED on me by Sandian James Gosler funded by NSA was about the COVERT CHANNEL. Similar to what I read at http://www.aci.net/kalliste/ricono.htm Gosler made the point to us that the 'black hats' could spike a device, either through hardware or software. A 'white hat' group could not discover how the covert channel worked [was spiked]. Gosler later wanted to assign me to an NSA project. I refused. I would not sign the required papers - which effectively makes the signer give up their civil rights. See http://www.qainfo.se/~lb/crypto_ag.htm RIGGING THE GAME" Baltimore Sun, December 10, 1995. This article can be ordered on-line http://www.sunspot.net/archive/search/ for details what NSA requires employees to sign. Sandia reassigned me to break electronic locks for the FBI. http://www.fbi.gov/ and http://www.fbi.gov/fo/nyfo/nytwa.htm I attach results, which the FBI blieves is SECRET/NSI, on how to counterfeit Wiegand wire access credentials funded by the FBI. Perhaps the following quotation and reference might be valuable to you. Spy agencies are also dabbling in hacker warfare. The National Security Agency, along with top-secret intelligence units in the Army, Air Force, has been researching ways to infect enemy computer systems with particularly virulent strains of software viruses that already plague home and office computers. Another type of virus, the logic bomb, would remain dormant in an enemy system until a predetermined time, when it would come to life and begin eating data. Such bombs could attack, for example, a nation's air-defense system or central bank. The CIA has a clandestine program that would insert booby-trapped computer chips into weapons systems that a foreign arms manufacturer might ship to a potentially hostile country - a technique called "chipping". In another program, the agency is looking at how independent contractors hired by arms makers to write software for weapons systems could be bribed to slip in viruses. "You get into the arms manufacturer's supply network, take the stuff off-line briefly, insert the bug, the let it go to the country," explained a CIA source who specializes in information technology. "When the weapons system goes into a hostile situation, everything about it seems to work, but the warhead doesn't explode." weapons may be even more exotic than computer viruses. Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico has developed a suitcase-sized device that generates a high-powered electromagnetic pulse. Commandos could sneak into a foreign capitol, place the EMP suitcase next to a bank and set it off. The resulting pulse would burn out all electronic components in the building. ... [TIME, August 21, 1995, by Douglas Waller] The US was super-concerned when stinger missiles, AFTER THE US GAVE THEM TO THE AFGHANIS, that the stingers might be used against the US. So the idea is to spike weapons so that the US remains in ELECTRONIC CONTROL - if physical control is lost. There are, of course, hazards in powering-up a stolen foreign weapon.

Access Control & Security Systems Integration magazine, October 1996 [http://www/securitysolutions.com] published the article, Wiegand technology stands the test of time by PAUL J. BODELL, page 12 Many card and reader manufacturers offer Wiegand (pronounced wee-gand) output. However, only three companies in the world make Wiegand readers. Sensor Engineering of Hamden Conn., holds the patent for Wiegand, and Sensor has licensed Cardkey of Simi Valley, Calif., and Doduco of Pforzheim, Germany, to manufacture Wiegand cards and readers. ... A Wiegand output reader is not the same thing as a Wiegand reader, and it is important to understand the differences. In brief, Wiegand reader use the Wiegand effect to translate card information around the patented Wiegand effect in which a segment of a specially treated wire generates an electronic pulse when subjected to a specific magnetic field. If the pulse is generated when the wire is near a pick-up coil, the pulse can be detected by a circuit. Lining up several rows of wires and passing them by a cold would generate a series of pulses. Lining up two rows of wires - calling on row "zero bits" and the other "one bits" - and passing them by two different coils would generate two series of pulses, or data bits. These data bits can then be interpreted as binary data and used to control other devices. If you seal the coils in a rugged housing with properly placed magnets, and LED and some simple circuitry, you have a Wiegand reader. Carefully laminate the special wires in vinyl, and artwork, and hot-stamp a number on the vinyl, and you have a Wiegand card. IN THE BEGINNING Wiegand was first to introduce to the access control market in the late 1970s. It was immediately successful because it filled the need for durable, secure card and reader technology. Embedded in the cards, Wiegand wires cannot be altered or duplicated. ... Bodell's Last statement is incorrect. Tasks for EASILY counterfeiting Wiegand wire cards are 1 Locate the wires inside the card to read the 0s and 1s. 2 Build an ACCEPTABLE copy of the card. Bodell's clear explanation of the working of a Wiegand card can be visualized zero row | | | one row | | binary 0 1 0 0 1 representation Solutions to Task 1 A X-ray the card B MAGNI VIEW FILM, Mylar film reads magnetic fields ... Edmunds Scientific Company, catalog 16N1, page 205, C33,447 $11.75 is placed over the top of the Wiegand card. COW MAGNET, Cow magnetics allow farmers to trap metal in the stomachs of their cows. Edmunds, page 204, C31,101 $10.75 is placed under the card. Location of the wires is easily seen on the green film. Mark the position of the wires with a pen. Next chop the card vertically using a shear into about 80/1000s paper-match-sized strips. Don't worry about cutting a wire or two. Note that a 0 has the pen mark to the top. A 1 has the pen mark at the bottom. Take a business card and layout the "paper match"-like strips to counterfeit the card number desired. Don't worry about spacing. Wiegand output is self-clocking! Tape the "paper-match - like" strips to the business card. Only the FUNCTION of the card needs to be reproduced! History Breaking electronic locks was done as "work for others" at Sandia National Laboratories beginning in 1992 funded by the Federal Bureau of Investigation/Engineering Research Facility, Quantico, VA. The FBI opined that this work was SECRET/NATIONAL SECURITY INFORMATION.

This software is the newest technological breakthrough in telecommunications that makes possible long distance calls from your computer to any telephone in the world. We are the representatives of a software that is worldwide leader and uses the most advanced Internet telephony system available today by a long shot. Most communications applications over the Internet, allow voice and even video transmittal, require that both the originator and the recipient of the call have fast, multimedia-ready computers, connected to the Internet at the same time and running the same communications software. Products like Net Meeting and Internet Phone are very sophisticated, but are not telephony applications. You can call anywhere in the world by means of a multimedia computer and a Dial-up Internet service. The call is initiated from your computer after you connect to your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and is then transmitted through the web into a telephony central switch in the US. The switch instantly and automatically completes the call via the US public telephony network and through it reaches its final destination. The result is a real-time call, uninterrupted and full-duplex. What are the benefits? It reduces the cost of long distance calls by as much as 95% or even 100% when dialing into a toll-free (1-800 or 1-888) number in the US and Canada. For more information please refer to our home page at: http://members.tripod.com/~rksistemas and http://www.visitweb.com/rksistemas Rates are completely independent from the country of origin of the call. In fact, all calls originate in reality from the US, signifying that World Wide users will actually call the world using US rates, currently the most competitive in the world. Any telephone in the world may be called via a computer and a modem. This renders PC to PC technologies useless since they require both users to be connected to the Internet, have multimedia computers, the same software running and meet in the same place at the same time.

You are about to embark on the most profitable and unique program you may ever see. Many times over, it has demonstrated and proven its ability to generate large amounts of CASH. This program is showing fantastic appeal with a huge and ever-growing on-line population desirous of additional income. This is a legitimate, LEGAL, money-making opportunity. It does not require you to come in contact with people, do any hard work, and best of all, you never have to leave the house, except to get the mail and go to the bank! This truly is that lucky break you've been waiting for! Simply follow the easy instructions in this letter, and your financial dreams <U>will</U> come true! When followed correctly, this electronic, multi-level marketing program works perfectly... 100% OF THE TIME! Thousands of people have used this program to: Raise capital to start their own business Pay off debts Buy homes, cars, etc., Even retire! This is your chance, so read on and get started today! --------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------- OVERVIEW OF THIS EXTRAORDINARY ELECTRONIC MULTI-LEVEL MARKETING PROGRAM ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ ------ Basically, this is what we do: We send thousands of people a product for $5.00 that costs next to nothing to produce and e-mail. As with all multi-level businesses, we build our business by recruiting new partners and selling our products. Every state in the U.S. allows you to recruit new multi- level business online (via your computer). The products in this program are a series of four business and financial reports costing $5.00 each. Each order you receive via "snail mail" will include: $5.00 cash The name and number of the report they are ordering The e-mail address where you will e-mail them the report they ordered. To fill each order, you simply e-mail the product to the buyer. The $5.00 is yours! This is the EASIEST electronic multi-level marketing business anywhere! FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS TO THE LETTER AND BE PREPARED TO REAP THE BENEFITS! ******* I N S T R U C T I O N S ******* This is what you MUST do: 1. Order all 4 reports shown on the list below (you can't sell them if you don't order them). For each report, send $5.00 CASH, the NAME & NUMBER OF THE REPORT YOU ARE ORDERING, YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS, and YOUR NAME & RETURN ADDRESS (in case of a problem) to the person whose name appears on the list next to the report. MAKE SURE YOUR RETURN ADDRESS IS ON YOUR ENVELOPE IN CASE OF ANY MAIL PROBLEMS! When you place your order, make sure you order each of the four reports. You will need all four reports so that you can save them on your computer and resell them. Within a few days you will receive, via e-mail, each of the four reports. Save them on your computer so they will be accessible for you to send to the 1,000's of people who will order them from you. 2. IMPORTANTDO NOT alter the names of the people who are listed next to each report, or their sequence on the list, in any way other than is instructed below in steps "a" through "f" or you will lose out on the majority of your profits. Once you understand the way this works, you'll also see how it doesn't work if you change it. Remember, this method has been tested, and if you alter it, it will not work. ( I talked to a friend last month who has also done this program. He said he had tried "playing" with it to change the results. Bad idea.... he never got as much money as he did with the UN-altered version. Remember, it's a proven method! a. Look below for the listing of available reports. b. After you've ordered the four reports, take this advertisement and remove the name and address under REPORT #4. This person has made it through the cycle and is no doubt counting their 50 grand! c. Move the name and address under REPORT #3 down to REPORT #4. d. Move the name and address under REPORT #2 down to REPORT #3. e. Move the name and address under REPORT #1 down to REPORT #2. f. Insert your name/address in the REPORT #1 position. Please make sure you copy every name and address ACCURATELY! 3. Take this entire letter, including the modified list of names, and save it to your computer. Make NO changes to the instruction portion of this letter. 4. Now you're ready to start an advertising campaign on the INTERNET! Advertising on the 'Net is very, very inexpensive, and there are HUNDREDS of FREE places to advertise. Another avenue which you could use for advertising is e-mail lists. You can buy these lists for under $20/2,000 addresses or you can pay someone a minimal charge to take care of it for you. BE SURE TO START YOUR AD CAMPAIGN IMMEDIATELY! 5. For every $5.00 you receive, all you must do is e-mail them the report they ordered. THAT'S IT! ALWAYS PROVIDE SAME-DAY SERVICE ON ALL ORDERS! This will guarantee that the e-mail THEY send out, with YOUR name and address on it, will be prompt because they can't advertise until they receive the report! ------------------------------------------ AVAILABLE REPORTS: ------------------------------------------ *** Order Each REPORT by NUMBER and NAME *** Notes: - ALWAYS SEND $5 CASH (U.S. CURRENCY) FOR EACH REPORT CHECKS NOT ACCEPTED ALWAYS SEND YOUR ORDER VIA FIRST CLASS MAIL Make sure the cash is concealed by wrapping it in at least two sheets of paper On one of those sheets of paper, include: (a) the number & name of the report you are ordering, (b) your e-mail address, and © your name & postal address. PLACE YOUR ORDER FOR THESE REPORTS NOW: _______________________________________________________________ REPORT #1 "HOW TO MAKE $250,000 THROUGH MULTI-LEVEL SALES" ORDER REPORT #1 FROM: MS 3919 BETHEL BLVD. HOUSTON, TEXAS 77092 _________________________________________________________ REPORT #2 "MAJOR CORPORATIONS AND MULTI- LEVEL SALES" ORDER REPORT #2 FROM: JD 311 SOUTH STATE RD. 301 BLUFFTON, INDIANA 46714 _____________________________________________________________________ REPORT #3 "SOURCES FOR THE BEST MAILING LISTS" ORDER REPORT #3 FROM: GS 3939 S. HARRISON STREET FORT WAYNE, INDIANA 46807-2417 _____________________________________________________________________ > REPORT #4 "EVALUATING MULTI-LEVEL SALES PLANS" ORDER REPORT #4 FROM: SAM P.O. BOX 13492 CHESAPEAKE,VA 23325-0492 _____________________________________________________________ HERE'S HOW THIS AMAZING PLAN WILL MAKE YOU $MONEY$: Let's say you decide to start small just to see how well it works. Assume your goal is to get 10 people to participate on you're first level. (Placing a lot of FREE ads on the Internet will EASILY get a larger response.) Also assume that everyone else in YOUR ORGANIZATION gets ONLY 10 downline members. Follow this example to achieve the STAGGERING results below. 1st levelyour 10 members with $5............................................$50 2nd level--10 members from those 10 ($5 x 100).....................$500 3rd level--10 members from those 100 ($5 x 1,000)............$5,000 4th level--10 members from those 1,000 ($5 x 10,000)...$50,000 THIS TOTALS: $55,550 Remember friends, this assumes that the people who participate only recruits 10 people each. Think for a moment what would happen if they got 20 people to participate! Most people get 100's of participants! THINK ABOUT IT! Your cost to participate in this is practically nothing (surely you can afford $20). You obviously already have an Internet connection and e-mail is FREE! REPORT#3 shows you the most productive methods for bulk e-mailing and purchasing e-mail lists. Some list & bulk e-mail vendors even work on trade! About 50,000 new people get online every month! ******* TIPS FOR SUCCESS******* TREAT THIS AS YOUR BUSINESS! Be prompt, professional, and follow the directions accurately. Send for the four reports IMMEDIATELY so you will have them when the orders start coming in because: When you receive a $5 order, you MUST send out the requested product/report to comply with the U.S. Postal & Lottery Laws, Title 18,Sections 1302 and 1341 or Title 18, Section 3005 in the U.S. Code, also Code of Federal Regs. vol. 16, Sections 255 and 436, which state that "a product or service must be exchanged for money received." ALWAYS PROVIDE SAME-DAY SERVICE ON THE ORDERS YOU RECEIVE. Be patient and persistent with this program. If you follow the instructions exactly, your results WILL be SUCCESSFUL! ABOVE ALL, HAVE FAITH IN YOURSELF AND KNOW YOU WILL SUCCEED! ******* YOUR SUCCESS GUIDELINES******* Follow these guidelines to guarantee your success: If you don't receive 10 to 20 orders for REPORT #1 within two weeks, continue advertising until you do. Then, a couple of weeks later you should receive at least 100 orders for REPORT #2. If you don't, continue advertising until you do. Once you have received 100 or more orders for REPORT #2, YOU CAN RELAX, because the system is already working for you, and the cash will continue to roll in! THIS IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER: Every time your name is moved down on the list, you are placed in front of a DIFFERENT report. You can KEEP TRACK of your PROGRESS by watching which report people are ordering from you. If you want to generate more income, send another batch of e-mails and start the whole process again! There is no limit to the income you will generate from this business! ******* T E S T I M O N I A L S ******* This program DOES work, but you must follow it EXACTLY! Especially the rule of not trying to place your name in a different position, it won't work and you'll lose a lot of potential income. I'm living proof that it works. It really is a great opportunity to make relatively easy money, with little cost to you. If you do choose to participate, follow the program exactly, and you'll be on your way to financial security. Sean McLaughlin, Jackson, MS My name is Frank. My wife, Doris, and I live in Bel-Air, MD. I am a cost accountant with a major U.S. Corporation and I make pretty good money. When I received the program I grumbled to Doris about receiving "junk mail." I made fun of the whole thing, spouting my knowledge of the population and percentages involved. I "knew" it wouldn't work. Doris totally ignored my supposed intelligence and jumped in with both feet. I made merciless fun of her, and was ready to lay the old "I told you so" on her when the thing didn't work... well, the laugh was on me! Within two weeks she had received over 50 responses. Within 45 days she had received over $147,200 in $5 bills! I was shocked! I was sure that I had it all figured and that it wouldn't work. I AM a believer now. I have joined Doris in her "hobby." I did have seven more years until retirement, but I think of the "rat race" and it's not for me. We owe it all to MLM. Frank T., Bel-Air, MD I just want to pass along my best wishes and encouragement to you. Any doubts you have will vanish when your first orders come in. I even checked with the U.S. Post Office to verify that the plan was legal. It definitely is! IT WORKS!!! Paul Johnson, Raleigh, NC The main reason for this letter is to convince you that this system is honest, lawful, extremely profitable, and is a way to get a large amount of money in a short time. I was approached several times before I checked this out. I joined just to see what one could expect in return for the minimal effort and money required. To my astonishment, I received $36,470.00 in the first 14 weeks, with money still coming in. Sincerely yours, Phillip A. Brown, Esq. Not being the gambling type, it took me several weeks to make up my mind to participate in this plan. But conservative that I am, I decided that the initial investment was so little that there was just no way that I wouldn't get enough orders to at least get my money back. Boy, was I surprised when I found my medium-size post office box crammed with orders! For awhile, it got so overloaded that I had to start picking up my mail at the window. I'll make more money this year than any 10 years of my life before. The nice thing about this deal is that it doesn't matter where in the U.S. the people live. There simply isn't a better investment with a faster return. Mary Rockland, Lansing, MI I had received this program before. I deleted it, but later I wondered if I shouldn't have given it a try. Of course, I had no idea who to contact to get another copy, so I had to wait until I was e-mailed another program... 11 months passed then it came...I didn't delete this one!...I made more than $41,000 on the first try!! D. Wilburn, Muncie, IN This is my third time to participate in this plan. We have quit our jobs, and will soon buy a home on the beach and live off the interest on our money. The only way on earth that this plan will work for you is if you do it. For your sake, and for your family's sake don't pass up this golden opportunity. Good luck and happy spending!

YOUR INDEPENDENCE DAY ARRIVES IN 90 DAYS!!
by awzoie＠ixleic.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Are you interested in making a substantial part-time income working from the comfort of your home on your computer, never having to speak to anyone? What if I told you this business only required one hour or less of your time each day? And if you knew that you could secure your financial independence in the next 3-6 months, would you be interested? I THOUGHT SO! Listen to this... If you have seen the chain letters that abound on the internet, you might think this is just another one of them. Well, surprise! It is NOTHING like them! This program incorporates powerful marketing concepts that will make you HUGE amounts of money using an information product that is actually useful, unlike useless "reports" that are promoted in chain letter scams. If making up to $100,000 or more in the next 6 months interests you, read on... "I'm Buying The Home of Our Dreams With CASH From The Proceeds I Received After Reading This Email!" Hello! My name is Marilyn Potter; I'm a 32 year-old wife, mother of two and a part-time medical transcriptionist. Normally I delete all "junk" email immediately when I receive it and use my email account primarily for my business that I do at home. I received a similar email numerous times over the past 2 years and deleted it every time. I again received this email four months ago and since it had a catchy title I finally read it. The concept was so compelling that I finally said, "OK, I give in. I'll give this a try. Investing $40 is something I can afford and the chance to make some serious money would certainly not hurt either!" I mailed four $10 bills right away and after receiving all four chapters of the informative "CREDIT SECRETS REVEALED" book, I paid a friend of mine a small sum of money to email my ad to 20,000 people. The person who sent me the first chapter of the book also sent me a message that showed me how to market this valuable information with my computer for free. I was hardly prepared for the results! For the past 90 days I have received more money than I have made in the past 5 years combined. The cash continues to roll in and at times I have to pick up my mail from the window at the post office because it won't fit in the medium-sized post office box I rented! And the cash just continues to flood my mailbox! My husband Jeff and I have been saving every penny over the past 7 years to purchase a new home for our family with a large downpayment. Well, we now have enough money to purchase the home of our dreams with CASH! We are also going to spend a MONTH in Hawaii to celebrate! I owe it all to this incredible program that I finally decided to try after deleting it so many times. I promise you, if you follow the directions in this e-mail and be prepared to eventually set aside about an hour each day to follow up (and count your money!), you will make at least as much money as we did. You don't need to be a whiz at the computer, but I'll bet you already are. If you can open an envelope, remove the money, and send an e-mail message, then you're on your way to the bank. Take the time to read this so you'll understand how easy it is. If I can do this, so can you! Don't Delay, Start Living Your Dreams TODAY!! Marilyn Potter The following is a copy of the e-mail I read: ******************************************************** THIS IS THE VERY LATEST AND MOST PROFITABLE MONEY-MAKING PHENOMENON YOU WILL EVER SEE. Do NOT mistaken this for the many chain letter SCAMS that you may have seen lately. This program offers VERY VALUABLE information in addition to the chance to make more money than you have ever seen before! Read this email carefully and then print it out for reference. Follow the simple directions and get started TODAY! With this new program, your financial dreams can come true. Are you sick of living paycheck to paycheck? Would you like to be able to go on vacation wherever and whenever you like? Does getting up on Monday morning without the stress of running off to work to a job that you dislike make you want to hear more about this business? Your dreams CAN come true but you MUST take action in order for your life to change. This COMPLETELY LEGITIMATE, LOW COST business can put you in the driver's seat financially for life. Don't waste another minute living your life for other people. Start TODAY living it for you and your family. What's even better, this business NEVER requires you to talk to or come in contact with anyone and allows you to work from the privacy of your own home. No more deadlines to meet! No more worrying if your boss will still like you and keep you on his payroll for another month. All you need to do is to go to the post office and pick up your money every day and then take it to the bank! THAT'S IT!! No hard work and you can feel good because you are providing VALUABLE information that EVERYONE NEEDS!! This business is automatic and keeps money rolling in even if you are not working at it. What could be better? It is so simple to start and doesn't require you to train anyone. This initial email does all of that for you!

Thousands of people have used this program to: Buy houses for CASH Pay off DEBT Put large downpayments on new homes Finance existing businesses Pay for education Raise capital to start new businesses Pay cash for new cars MUCH, MUCH MORE!! You must be interested by now, or you wouldn't have read this far! Now is your chance to discover financial freedom like you have never had before! Keep on reading, you will not be sorry. OVERVIEW OF THIS AMAZING PROGRAM: Here is how it works: We sell the book "CREDIT SECRETS REVEALED" via email to thousands of customers for a one-time total cost of $40. Here is what makes this so exciting! The book is divided into 4 chapters which are sold individually. By purchasing the book and adding your name to the list, your name will move from the top to the bottom automatically and as it does the MONEY you make will increase exponentially. As with all multilevel businesses, we build our business by recruiting new partners and selling our product. Every state in the U.S. allows you to recruit new multilevel business online (via your computer). Here is the difference between this exciting program and "chain letter" scams. We market a book that contains VERY USEFUL information that EVERYBODY needs, not some useless report. When you order this book (which retails for $72.95), you will find how: * To find the LOWEST credit card rates * To manage your finances using credit cards to your advantage. * To obtain MULTIPLE credit cards * To consolidate your debt * To obtain credit if you are financially challenged * To get rich using other people's money * To avoid the pitfalls of credit card usage * To contact banks offering the best loan deals today * To obtain business loans * To find credit card companies offering matching airline miles * To be successful when applying for credit and how to get the highest possible limit. Each order you receive via "snail mail" will include: 1) $10.00 CASH 2) The name and number of the chapter they are ordering 3) The e-mail address where you will e-mail them the chapter they ordered. To fill each order, you simply e-mail the product to the buyer. THAT'S IT! The $10.00 is yours! This is the EASIEST electronic multilevel marketing business anywhere! READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY AND THEN REAP THE HUGE REWARDS! ******* I N S T R U C T I O N S ******* This is what you MUST do: 1. Order all 4 chapters shown on the list below (you can't sell the book if you don't order all 4 chapters). * For each chapter, send $10.00 CASH, the NAME & NUMBER OF THE CHAPTER YOU ARE ORDERING, YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS, and YOUR NAME & RETURN ADDRESS (in case of a problem) to the person whose name appears on the list next to the chapter. MAKE SURE YOUR RETURN ADDRESS IS ON YOUR ENVELOPE IN CASE OF ANY MAIL PROBLEMS! * When you place your order, make sure you order each of the four chapters. You will need all four so that you will have the entire book to sell. * Within a few days you will receive, via e-mail, each of the four chapters. Save them on your computer so they will be accessible for you to send to the 1,000's of people who will order them from you. MAKE SURE TO PRINT THEM AS WELL IN CASE OF PROBLEMS! 2. IMPORTANT-- DO NOT alter the names of the people who are listed next to each chapter, or their sequence on the list, in any way other than is instructed below in steps "a" through "f" or you WILL LOSE OUT on the majority of your profits! Once you understand the way this works, you'll also see how it doesn't work if you change it. Remember, this method has been tested, and if you alter it, it will NOT work. a. Look below for the listing of chapters. b. After you've ordered the four chapters, take this advertisement and remove the name and address under chapter #4. This person has made it through the cycle and is no doubt counting their $100,000! c. Move the name and address under CHAPTER #3 down to CHAPTER #4. d. Move the name and address under CHAPTER #2 down to CHAPTER #3. e. Move the name and address under CHAPTER #1 down to CHAPTER #2. f. Insert your name/address in the CHAPTER #1 position. Please make sure you copy every name and address ACCURATELY! 3. Take this entire letter, including the modified list of names, and save it on your computer. Make NO changes to the instruction portion of this letter. PRINT OUT THE LETTER AS WELL! 4. Now you're ready to start an advertising campaign on the INTERNET! Advertising on the 'Net is very, very inexpensive, and there are HUNDREDS of FREE places to advertise. The marketing email you will receive with chapter 1 will explain internet advertising in greater detail. BE SURE TO START YOUR AD CAMPAIGN IMMEDIATELY! 5. For every $10.00 you receive, all you must do is e-mail them the chapter they ordered. THAT'S IT! ALWAYS PROVIDE SAME-DAY SERVICE ON ALL ORDERS! This will guarantee that the e-mail THEY send out, with YOUR name and address on it, will be prompt because they can't advertise until they receive the chapter! CHAPTERS TO PURCHASE *** Order Each CHAPTER by NUMBER and NAME *** Notes: - ALWAYS SEND $10 CASH (U.S. CURRENCY) FOR EACH CHAPTER. CHECKS NOT ACCEPTED - ALWAYS SEND YOUR ORDER VIA FIRST CLASS MAIL - Make sure the cash is concealed by wrapping it in at least two sheets of paper - On one of those sheets of paper, include: (a) the number & name of the chapter you are ordering, (b) your e-mail address, and (c) your name & postal address. PLACE YOUR ORDER FOR THESE CHAPTERS NOW: _________________________________________________ CHAPTER #1 "SECRETS FOR THOSE WITH CREDIT CHALLENGES" ORDER CHAPTER #1 FROM: L&S Enterprises P.O. Box 11665 Eugene, OR 97440 CHAPTER #2 "THE LOWEST RATES IN CREDIT CARDS TODAY" ORDER CHAPTER #2 FROM: Unlimited Enterprises PO Box 1516 Eugene, OR 97440 CHAPTER #3 "DEBT MANAGEMENT TO YOUR ADVANTAGE" ORDER CHAPTER #3 FROM: Bergman & Associates PO Box 1083 Oakridge, OR 97463 CHAPTER #4 "OBTAINING LOANS FOR YOUR BUSINESS" ORDER CHAPTER #4 FROM: Dream Merchants P.O. Box 1850 Bonner's Ferry, ID 83805 _________________________________________________ ***IMPORTANT!!*** YOU WILL RECEIVE A MARKETING LETTER WITH CHAPTER ONE. YOU WILL NEED TO SEND THIS TO ANYONE WHO ORDERS CHAPTER ONE FROM YOU. THIS WILL EXPLAIN HOW TO MARKET THIS BOOK EFFECTIVELY. You might wonder how this program can make you so much money. Well, keep reading and you will see how powerful this AUTOMATIC online business actually is! Let's say you decide to start small just to see how well it works. Assume your goal is to get 10 people to participate on your first level. (Placing a lot of FREE ads on the internet will EASILY get a larger response.) Also assume that everyone else in YOUR ORGANIZATION gets ONLY 10 downline members. Follow this example to achieve the STAGGERING results below. 1st level--your 10 members with $10.................$100 2nd level--10 members from those 10 ($10 x100).....$1000 3rd level--10 members from those 100 ($10 x 1,000).$10,000 4th level--10 members from those 1,000 ($10x10,000).$100,000 TOTALS ----------->$111,100! Remember, this assumes that the people who participate only recruit 10 people each. Think for a moment what would happen if they got 20 people to participate! Most people get 100's of participants! THINK ABOUT IT! Your cost to participate in this is relatively very little (surely you can afford $40). You obviously already have an Internet connection and e-mail is FREE! About 50,000 new people get online every month! ******* TIPS FOR SUCCESS ******* * TREAT THIS AS YOUR BUSINESS! Be prompt, professional, and follow the directions accurately. * Send for the four chapters IMMEDIATELY so you will have them when the orders start coming in because: When you receive a $10 order, you MUST send out the requested product to comply with the U.S. Postal & Lottery Laws, Title 18,Sections 1302 and 1341 or Title 18, Section 3005 in the U.S. Code, also Code of Federal Regs. vol. 16, Sections 255 and 436, which state that "a product or service must be exchanged for money received." * ALWAYS PROVIDE SAME-DAY SERVICE ON THE ORDERS YOU RECEIVE. * Be PATIENT and PERSISTENT with this program. If you follow the instructions exactly, your results WILL be SUCCESSFUL! * ABOVE ALL, HAVE FAITH IN YOURSELF AND KNOW YOU WILL SUCCEED! ******* YOUR SUCCESS GUIDELINES ******* Follow these guidelines to guarantee your success: If you don't receive 10 to 20 orders for chapter #1 within two weeks, continue advertising until you do. Then, a couple of weeks later you should receive at least 100 orders for chapter #2. If you don't, continue advertising until you do. Once you have received 100 or more orders for chapter #2, YOU CAN RELAX, because the system is already working for you, and the cash will continue to roll in! THIS IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER: Every time your name is moved down on the list, you are placed in front of a DIFFERENT chapter. You can KEEP TRACK of your PROGRESS by watching which chapter people are ordering from you. If you want to generate more income, send another batch of e-mails and start the whole process again! There is no limit to the income you will generate from this business! ******* T E S T I M O N I A L S ******* My name is Scott Hampton and I live in Portland, Oregon. I am an airline pilot and make very good money doing what I do. Unfortunately I have built up a HUGE debt load from poor business transactions over the past 5 years. I am now living paycheck to paycheck even though I make over $60,000 per year as a pilot. I received this email approximately 6 months ago and decided to try it. I promptly ordered the useful book "CREDIT SECRETS REVEALED" and began marketing it aggressively. I was surprised when I found my post office box filled with over 300 orders in less than 30 days. Over the course of the next 3 months I have personally made $113,540! I have been able to pay off my debts quickly and have taken a much needed vacation. The money continues to roll in and I am preparing to do another mailing in about 30 days. All I can say is that I was skeptical but now I am a believer! Scott Hampton, Portland, Oregon I received this email about 1 year ago and immediately tossed it out stating to my wife that I was going to track down the person who sent it to me and give them a piece of my mind. I forgot about it and about 7 months later received it again. However this time I was in very high debt because my son was just accepted to a prestigious school and the tuition was astronomical. I viewed this opportunity differently and decided to try it. I figured I could certainly afford the $40 and had little to lose. Well, I am pleased to say that my son now has a "free" education as a result of this incredible program. I have never seen anything like it in my life. Routinely my PO box has 50-100 letters in it at a time. You MUST try it to believe it. It is like opening a present every day! Walter Hickman Denver, Colorado My wife and I have been married for 3 years now and we just had our second child Heather. We have been living in a 700 square foot apartment with very basic living necessities. We are both working and making ends meet is nearly impossible. My school bills were nearly $30,000 and the monthly payment was making it hard to find money to buy food. In addition to that, I was spending my 12 hour workdays away from my family, putting a strain on them. Late one evening about 10 months ago I received this email. I felt things could not get much worse and decided to at least give it a try. I mailed for the book and began marketing as the instructions indicated. Well, the rest is history. We are now purchasing a new home with 30% down and I am happy to say that my school bill will be paid off in 3 months. I owe it all to this incredible online MLM program! Jeremy Bass, Providence, Rhode Island Believe me, your efforts will certainly be rewarded with this easy, automatic money making wonder! I started about 2 months ago and now have enough money to purchase a new Mercedes convertible. I never thought I'd ever have enough money to purchase the car of my dreams but now I do. This program has made me believe in MLM again! Larry Lancaster, Dallas, Texas All my life I have wanted to retire early. Well, here I was, nearly 65 years old with not a cent in my savings account. I had never been able to save money because of high medical bills that I have had since my bypass surgery. I am in debt over $74,000 and must keep working the rest of my life. My stressful corporate life lead to my heart problems and now I am stuck with paying my health bills. Needless to say, I jumped at the chance when I read this email. I mailed out the 4 $10 bills right away and started advertising when I received the complete book. I guess all I can say is that I never dreamed I'd be in a position like I am now. I have paid off my medical bills and have put over $30,000 into savings. I plan to advertise this program about every 4 months and build up my savings account to over $500,000 so I can retire in about 3 years or less. Believe me, without this amazing MLM program I'd never be in such an enviable position! Frank Statton, Los Angeles, California My name is Mary and I have lived alone since my husband Allen passed away 3 years ago. I have 4 young children and was constantly depending on Welfare and our church family to help get us through our financial crisis. There was always more month at the end of the money and it seems like there was absolutely no way out of this disaster. Even though all our friends have been wonderful to us I finally decided to do something about it. I received this email on the computer I share with my friend. She looked at it and told me it would never work. I decided to at least see how it would work if I tried it. That was about 5 months ago and my life will never be the same again. After one month I was able to purchase a much needed Dodge Caravan for getting the kids around in. I figured that was the end of the money but then the money volume went up by around 4 times! I could not believe it! We now are totally self sufficient and are purchasing a moderate sized home so we can! stretch out some. The product it self was very helpful and showed me how to improve my financial well-being considerably. You have to try it to see that it works! Go for it today! Mary Romero, Washington, DC ORDER THE BOOK "CREDIT SECRETS REVEALED" TODAY AND GET STARTED ON YOUR ROAD TO FINANCIAL FREEDOM! WITHOUT ACTION YOUR FUTURE CANNOT CHANGE!

IP: "CyberCash can't oust credit cards"
by Robert Hettinga 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Hettinga's three laws of internet payment technology investment: 1. Geodesic, peer-to-peer transactions. 2. Three orders of magnitude cost reduction. 3. Nothing but net. The application of the above to Cybercash, or SET, for that matter, I leave as an exercise for the reader... Cheers, Bob Hettinga --- begin forwarded text Delivered-To: ignition-point(a)majordomo.pobox.com X-Sender: believer(a)telepath.com Date: Sun, 05 Jul 1998 13:53:40 -0500 To: believer(a)telepath.com From: believer(a)telepath.com Subject: IP: "CyberCash can't oust credit cards" Mime-Version: 1.0 Sender: owner-ignition-point(a)majordomo.pobox.com Precedence: list Reply-To: believer(a)telepath.com Source: Charlotte (N.C.) Observer (printing a Washington Post article) Posted at 3:32 p.m. EDT Friday, July 3, 1998 CyberCash can't oust credit cards By MARK LEIBOVICH The Washington Post WASHINGTON -- Two years ago, CyberCash Inc. walked tall as a pioneer in the seemingly vast frontier of Internet commerce. Today, the Reston, Va., firm and its software that lets merchants receive payments over the Internet offers a cautionary lesson in how social habits in the digital age are difficult to predict -- and dicey to stake a business on. On Tuesday, CyberCash announced that its second-quarter revenue would be below expectations, and that it would lay off 20 percent of its staff. The news sent its stock price into a decline -- the latest to strike the company. Once trading in the $60 range, it fell steadily this week to finish at $11.12 1/2. The hard times come even as CyberCash has tried to tone down its aspirations and diversify into a more conventional business, the processing of credit-card transactions in ordinary stores. The moral, said Ulric Weil, a technology analyst at investment bank Friedman, Billings Ramsey Co. in Arlington, Va., is: ``It's always hard to bet on the purchasing mores of consumers.'' William N. ``Bill'' Melton, one of Northern Virginia's most accomplished technology entrepreneurs, envisioned a world of paperless purchasing when he founded CyberCash in August 1994. In this world, Internet users would purchase goods and services using new ``virtual currencies,'' such as CyberCoin, a CyberCash product that allows online purchases of up to $20 at a time by transferring funds from a credit card or bank account to an account that CyberCash oversaw. Few people bought anything with this virtual currency at first, but the market was patient. In the speculative world of Internet stocks, the potential for this commerce seemed limitless, and CyberCash was an instant Wall Street hit. Company shares, first offered to the public for $17 in February 1996, were trading at more than $60 by that June. But today, investors are tired of waiting. The predicted rush to electronic currency remains a mere trickle and what little there is generally uses plain-old credit card transactions, not a fancy new currency. For now, consumers shopping online merely want to use something they know and trust for payment, the credit card, not an entirely new form of currency. After this week's layoff, which involved about 20 positions in the Washington area, CyberCash has about 200 employees. It remains unprofitable, having reported a loss of $5.67 million on sales of $1.14 million in the January-March quarter. If life weren't uncertain enough in Reston, speculation was rampant this week among analysts who follow the company that its low stock price was making it a ripe takeover target. These predictions were fueled further by the company's announcement Tuesday that its board of directors had adopted a new shareholders rights, or ``poison pill,'' plan, which companies typically use to deter unwanted takeover bids. In this case, if an outside entity attempted to purchase a stake in CyberCash that exceeded 15 percent, the company board could invoke the provision -- at which point CyberCash shareholders would win the right to purchase company shares at a greatly discounted price. For a potential buyer, this would make CyberCash far more expensive. Russ Stevenson, CyberCash's general counsel, said the new provision was not related to the company's recent struggles, and that the timing of its adoption was coincidental. In a statement, CyberCash said the poison pill did not come in response to an acquisition proposal. James J. Condon, the company's chief operations officer, would not comment on whether CyberCash was in discussions to be acquired, citing a company policy ``never to comment'' on potential acquisitions. Melton, CyberCash's president and chief executive, was traveling Thursday and could not be reached for comment. CyberCash's recent woes stem in part from its May acquisition of ICverify Inc., an Oakland, Calif., company that makes credit-card processing software. CyberCash, which purchased ICverify for $57 million in cash and stock, hoped to complement its own technology with ICverify's more conventional ``point of sale'' software, which helps retailers process credit card transactions in shops and other commercial establishments. Entering the ``point of sale'' market was a way for CyberCash to hedge its bets against the uncertain future of electronic commerce, analysts said. ``This gave (CyberCash) a piece of the physical point of payment, as well as the electronic point of payment,'' said Scott Smith, an Internet commerce analyst at Current Analysis Inc. in Sterling. With the addition of ICverify, Condon said, CyberCash could now offer a full package of payment software to potential customers. They could now provide, say, a clothing retailer, the tools to process both in-person credit card transactions as well as Internet credit card purchases. But the ICverify acquisition proved a difficult transition. In recent months, analysts said, some customers of both companies have frozen their accounts, saying they were unsure about which transaction software they would deploy in the future. ``The ICverify transaction resulted in customers taking a close look at what direction they wanted to go in,'' said Weil. Condon said he expects this to be a short-term problem. He said he has spoken to several customers who plan to continue their accounts shortly. People who follow CyberCash generally agree on two things: that if the company can hang on long enough for electronic payments to become a widespread phenomenon, it will be well positioned to cash in. They also say the company has a strong, tenacious management team in place, led by Melton. ``He is the rock the company is built on, and he's committed to the company's success,'' said Smith. ``I don't see anyone there who is ready to back down.'' But in the end, Weil said, the future of CyberCash might rest with forces beyond its control. ``You can't change the psyche of consumers,'' he said. ``CyberCash doesn't have that kind of influence.'' ----------------------- NOTE: In accordance with Title 17 U.S.C. section 107, this material is distributed without profit or payment to those who have expressed a prior interest in receiving this information for non-profit research and educational purposes only. ----------------------- ********************************************** To subscribe or unsubscribe, email: majordomo(a)majordomo.pobox.com with the message: (un)subscribe ignition-point email@address ********************************************** www.telepath.com/believer ********************************************** --- end forwarded text ----------------- Robert A.

I need a crippleable cypher for work (i.e. one that can be done in 40-bit and something-reasonable modes), and I'm thinking rc5 might be a good choice. Anyone know where I could find source for this, or have other suggestions? For the record, I and my company are in Canada. -Robin

Re: fwd from spyking@thecodex.com
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Answering Spyking's questions Ray posted in reverse: The Bronx incident started off as a major CB case, with barricades and plastic suits galore, in accord with the push for scare the beans out of the public with imaginary terrorism (another WMD terrorism trial is due to start in NYC shortly). It turns out that what was found were a couple of take-home, mildly radioactive elements (properly contained and marked) of a recently deceased employee of a plant that used them. The story died quickly. NYT covered it twice, once hot, once tepid. Second, what's driving the nationwide push to train First Responders and emergency room staff is Clinton's funding the program with billions, after he read Richard Preston's recent novel on biological terrorism (so said news reports), and got a few heart-thumping briefings from if you only knew blackhearts. Right now preparing for domestic defense against Weapons of Mass Destruction is the hottest career-jumpstart in the nation, and there's a frenzy of competition passing as cooperation among the military, National Guards, intel, FBI, FEMA, state and local cops, EMS, sawbones, Red Cross, CB weapons experts (US and RU), mercenaries, manufacturers, vets and revolving doorers of all the above, and, to be sure, the never-fake-it media goading and exaggerating (our straight-shooting members here excepted, well, except Y2Kites). Like many state and local officials relishing the vital national security role being porked to domestic forces, neatly bypassing the military's limitations, NYC's mayor is happy as a pig in shit with his plan for a new $16m anti-terrorist bunker on the 23rd floor of a buddy's office building across the street from the World Trade Center -- one RPG shot from the 23rd WTC into his impenetrable C4I nest. Rudy loves to watch "Patton" clad only in a Kevlar jockstrap. Of course, he's a "former federal prosecutor," the most common subtitle on TV of disembodied talking heads.

Update on status of Pauline Hanson's One Nation web sites
by Global Web Builders 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

G'day One Nation supporters in NSW I am Scott Balson, Pauline Hanson's web master and the moderator of the now defunct discussion forum mentioned in a recent news letter. You will notice that I am not using my normal "gwb" email. I apologise for the demise of the very successful discussion forum, but may I say that nothing surprises me any more. The forum was run on a third party web site and the owner took two weeks leave on Sunday - the day before the forum "shut down". Quite simply it was hacked by an unknown person because it was so successful. This is the face of free speech in Australia. NOTE: The hacker was not the site owner. To make matters worse, last Friday, the One Nation pages went down after the ISP we used, Pronet, had their link closed by Optus because of financial difficulties... we have taken remedial action and hope to have the site fully operational in the next 48 hours at: http://www.gwb.com.au/onenation The last few weeks I have seen, heard of and personally faced a growing number of personal attacks aimed at those involved in the One Nation party. In my case this has included being followed while driving my car (last week) and phone calls from the media wanting me to comment on "anonymous", unsubstantiated and trumped-up allegations that were made personally against me. (For example, when questioned about his call to me on Sunday Rory Callinan from "The (News Limited) Courier Mail" confirmed that they would not normally bother with allegations made on this basis but my role within the party had made an anonymous allegation "newsworthy" and worth pursuing.) This follows the party's success in the Queensland state elections. May I just say that this makes me realise that One Nation is obviously having a big impact on those who have got the most to lose and through their actions they have just increased my resolve to do all that I can to ensure Pauline Hanson and the party get a "fair go" on the Internet even if this right is denied by the mainstream media. The events and incidents against the party will continue to be covered on my Australian National News of the Day (anotd) which should be live again soon (also temporarily closed because of the Pronet collapse) The address for anotd is: http://www.gwb.com.au/gwb/news The agenda for getting One Nation back on-line and the discussion form up and running again is as follows: One Nation web site and anotd fully operation by Friday 10th July (probably before) http://www.gwb.com.au/onenation Discussion forum (through GWB) fully operational by end of July. I will keep this group informed when the discussion forum is again operational and once again apologise for the temporary loss of our forum in which to discuss issues. Please do not respond to this temporary account unless it is on a matter of urgency. The gwb(a)gwb.com.au email address will be up and running again by this weekend.

Gov Secrecy Reform Act of 1998
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

We've transcribed a fax of Senator Thompson's Amendment as Substitute for S.712, "Government Secrecy Reform Act of 1998," passed by the Governmental Affairs Committee on June 17: http://jya.com/s712-amend.htm (37K) Here's a report on the amendment and vote: NCC Washington Update, vol. 4, #25 July 1, 1998 [National Coordinating Committee for the Promotion of History] Senate Committee Adopts Substitute Bill for Moynihan's Government Secrecy Reform Act Senate Committee Adopts Substitute Bill for Moynihan's Government Secrecy Reform Act -- On June 17 the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee met to consider a substitute bill for S.712, the Government Secrecy Reform Act of 1998. By voice vote, with no negative votes heard, the Committee passed the substitute bill proposed by Senator Fred Thompson (R-TENN), the chair of the Committee, and Senator Susan Collins (R-ME). The original bill had provided a framework for reform but had lacked the specifics which this bill provides. The substitute bill make four major changes from the bill that was originally introduced. First, this bill eliminates the section calling for the establishment of a National Declassification Center in an existing agency -- which many had thought could be the National Archives -- and instead expands the functions and oversight responsibilities of the existing Information Security Oversight Office (ISOO) and moves that office from the National Archives to the Executive Office of the President. Second, the bill states that classified information must be declassified after 25 years unless, as the bill summary states, "extraordinary circumstances" require that it remain classified. The original bill had a 30 year time limit for most information to remain classified. Third, the substitute bill retains the balancing test of the original bill; however, the revised bill establishes criteria to guide agency classification decisions for weighing the concerns of national security and the public interest in disclosure. The national security criteria are taken directly from President Clinton's E.O 12958 and the public interest criteria are newly developed for the substitute bill. Fourth, the substitute bill establishes a Classification and Declassification Review Board composed of 5 public members to hear agency and individual appeals regarding classification and declassification decisions. Once the report for the amended S. 712 is filed, which is expected to happen in mid-July, then the substitute bill will be referred to the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence for 30 days for their consideration. It is anticipated that the Intelligence Committee may hold hearings and may have objections to the balancing test provision of the bill. Since there appears to be little attention in the House to this legislation and since there are not many legislative days remaining before adjournment, it is doubtful that this legislation will pass in the 105th Congress.

Reuters 3:40pm 6.Jul.98.PDT WASHINGTON -- A district court has dismissed a law professor's challenge to US regulations strictly limiting the export of computer data-scrambling technology. Judge James Gwin ruled late Friday that the export limits, which prevented Case Western Reserve University Law School professor Peter Junger from posting the text of encryption programs on the Internet, did not violate the constitutional right to free speech. The Ohio court's ruling contradicts a California district court ruling last August that said source code -- the instructions a person writes telling the computer what actions to perform -- constitutes a form of speech subject to First Amendment protection. "Unlike instructions, a manual or a recipe, source code actually performs the function it describes," Gwin wrote. "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." Neither ruling gave speech protection to compiled code, a version of source code converted into an actual software program that could be run on a computer. The US government appealed the California decision and the issue may ultimately be decided by the Supreme Court. Civil libertarians and high-tech companies had hoped the court would overturn the export limits on encryption technology, which uses mathematical formulas to scramble information and render it unreadable without a password or software "key." Once the realm of spies and generals, encryption has become an increasingly critical means of protecting electronic commerce and global communications over the Internet. But law enforcement agencies, fearing encryption will be used by terrorists and international criminals to hide their activities, have instituted strict controls to limit the export of strong scrambling products. Lawyers opposed to the export rules said the Ohio court misunderstood the difference between source code and compiled code. "The Ohio court clearly doesn't understand the communicative nature of software," said Shari Steele, an attorney with the Electronic Frontier Foundation. "It's true that software helps to perform functions, but it does so by telling computers what to do.... It certainly is speech deserving of the highest levels of First Amendment protection." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- james 'keith' thomson <jkthomson(a)bigfoot.com> www.bigfoot.com/~ceildh jkthomson:C181 991A 405C EAFB 2C46 79B5 B1DC DB78 8196 122D [06.07.98] ceildh :1D79 59AF ED75 5945 6003 8240 DA34 ACCA 9DE4 6BC9 [05.14.98] ICQ:746241 <keys> at pgp.mit.edu ...and former sysop of tnbnog BBS ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Technology is introduced, utilized, depended upon, obsolete, standardized, and understood, in that order =======================================================================

I don't understand ... Did anyone demonstrate the "functionalness" of any arbitrary language via a scanner and a compiler? Why doesn't Gwin understand that the moment one successfully claims that a specific class of source code is not speech by the virtue of the fact that a compiler can transform it automatically into executable code which performs a function, then ANY speech of ANY sort is fundamentally vulnerable to being classified as functional as soon as a compiler can transform it into real machine code. So today, I can write the following: 1. Find a container. 2. Fill container with explosive substance. 3. Move container to target location. 4. Detonate container. As soon as I have a compiler and a target machine that can execute these instructions, suddenly this is not speech. However, before this compiler and machine combo exists, event the electronic form of this is speech! How could this be?

I think we are in violent agreement here ... Except that it seems odd that speech is no longer 1st amendment protected as soon as it can be interpreted by a machine to do something. So, then, if I want to deny you first amendment protections for something, I can simply write a compiler to turn your words into machine executable code, and suddenly, your words are no longer protected speech. How could that be a reasonable interpretation of functional versus not? Secondly, Gwin said that encryption is a special class of software which is MORE functional. This is definitely a misunderstanding, to say the least. I don't see how any particular class of software is necessarily more or less functional than other classes of software. In the functional sense, all software, when compiled and executed is functional, period (whether it performs according to its original design is irrelevant).

However, before this >compiler and machine combo exists, event the electronic form of this is >speech! > >How could this be? Gwin has written a phrase which deserves more analysis, IMO -- free from political overtones if we want to be impartial. The phrase can be reworded as: "source code is a device, that actually does a function" The difference and importance here is between syntatic and semantics. Your 4-instruction source code above is not a device today -- it cannot perform any function. It has only syntatics, not the "how to". But, if there were a machine that could supply the proper semantics (ie, actually perform the functions 1-4) then your source code above would be a device. Further, your source code may not be a device today but be a device tomorrow. As another example, bringing together one pound of inert metal with another one pound of the same inert metal was not considered to be explosive -- until U235 was used for the inert metal and properly compressed. The difference is semantic, not syntatic. In that, Gwin is correct. Can the source code actually perform a function? Then, it is a device. Irrespective of the needed platform, in the same way that an electric shaver is a device irrespective of the local availablity of an appropriate power outlet. IMO, even though I consider Gwin to be correct to a very large extent, widespread use of crypto will not come from lifiting such bans ... but from real need -- which does not outweigh the hassle, today. The EFF has a wrong target there. Do you know how much Internet e-mail traffic is encrypted today? Can you believe less than 10%? Notwithstanding the rethoric exercises and limelight it may provide, talking about encryption export bans may not be as effective as desigining better and easier uses of strong crypto -- that can then really drive market, legislation and courts. Need to use is a better key than need to know, it seems.

NO FUTURE IN ARGUING POINTS OF LAW WITH CROOKED JUDGES. bill Counterfeiting Wiegand Wire Access Credentials Bill Payne October 16,1996 Abstract Wiegand wire access credentials are easy and inexpensive to counterfeit. Access Control & Security Systems Integration magazine, October 1996 [http://www/securitysolutions.com] published the article, Wiegand technology stands the test of time by PAUL J. BODELL, page 12 Many card and reader manufacturers offer Wiegand (pronounced wee-gand) output. However, only three companies in the world make Wiegand readers. Sensor Engineering of Hamden Conn., holds the patent for Wiegand, and Sensor has licensed Cardkey of Simi Valley, Calif., and Doduco of Pforzheim, Germany, to manufacture Wiegand cards and readers. ... A Wiegand output reader is not the same thing as a Wiegand reader, and it is important to understand the differences. In brief, Wiegand reader use the Wiegand effect to translate card information around the patented Wiegand effect in which a segment of a specially treated wire generates an electronic pulse when subjected to a specific magnetic field. If the pulse is generated when the wire is near a pick-up coil, the pulse can be detected by a circuit. Lining up several rows of wires and passing them by a cold would generate a series of pulses. Lining up two rows of wires - calling on row "zero bits" and the other "one bits" - and passing them by two different coils would generate two series of pulses, or data bits. These data bits can then be interpreted as binary data and used to control other devices. If you seal the coils in a rugged housing with properly placed magnets, and LED and some simple circuitry, you have a Wiegand reader. Carefully laminate the special wires in vinyl, and artwork, and hot-stamp a number on the vinyl, and you have a Wiegand card. IN THE BEGINNING Wiegand was first to introduce to the access control market in the late 1970s. It was immediately successful because it filled the need for durable, secure card and reader technology. Embedded in the cards, Wiegand wires cannot be altered or duplicated. ... Bodell's Last statement is incorrect. Tasks for EASILY counterfeiting Wiegand wire cards are 1 Locate the wires inside the card to read the 0s and 1s. 2 Build an ACCEPTABLE copy of the card. Bodell's clear explanation of the working of a Wiegand card can be visualized zero row | | | one row | | binary 0 1 0 0 1 representation Solutions to Task 1 A X-ray the card B MAGNI VIEW FILM, Mylar film reads magnetic fields ... Edmunds Scientific Company, catalog 16N1, page 205, C33,447 $11.75 is placed over the top of the Wiegand card. COW MAGNET, Cow magnetics allow farmers to trap metal in the stomachs of their cows. Edmunds, page 204, C31,101 $10.75 is placed under the card. Location of the wires is easily seen on the green film. Mark the position of the wires with a pen. Next chop the card vertically using a shear into about 80/1000s paper-match-sized strips. Don't worry about cutting a wire or two. Note that a 0 has the pen mark to the top. A 1 has the pen mark at the bottom. Take a business card and layout the "paper match"-like strips to counterfeit the card number desired. Don't worry about spacing. Wiegand output is self-clocking! Tape the "paper-match - like" strips to the business card. Only the FUNCTION of the card needs to be reproduced! History Breaking electronic locks was done as "work for others" at Sandia National Laboratories beginning in 1992 funded by the Federal Bureau of Investigation/Engineering Research Facility, Quantico, VA.

US to Ease Crypto Export
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

7 July 1998 Source: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/WPlate/1998-07/07/064l-070798-idx.html Thanks to FT U.S. to Ease Limits on Export of Data-Scrambling Technology By Elizabeth Corcoran Washington Post Staff Writer Tuesday, July 7, 1998; Page E04 Commerce Secretary William Daley plans to announce today that the government will give U.S. software companies new freedom to export their most sophisticated data-scrambling technology to financial institutions chartered in 45 countries, according to Clinton administration sources. Under the new rules, which officials said are likely to take effect in late summer, eligible banks, securities firms, brokerage houses and credit-card companies will need to receive approval only once from the Commerce Department before they can license the most sophisticated "encryption," or data-scrambling, technology. Once they receive approval, those institutions will be permitted to share the technology with any of their branch offices, except for those located in terrorist states. Government sources estimate that the new rules will include about 70 percent of the world's banks, including the 100 largest (ranked by assets). For years, the government has closely regulated export of encryption software, on the grounds that terrorists or hostile governments might use it to cloak their communications. The software industry argues that the rules are unworkable and unfairly block foreign sales. Unfriendly parties wanting to use encryption already can obtain it overseas, industry executives said. The new rules on banks are "a move in the right direction," said one industry executive familiar with the regulations. "But we're still leaving some groups out. Basically, we need to keep spreading the circle wider," to include the growing number of businesses offering financial services, such as insurance companies. "What we've heard sounds great," said Kawika Daguio, a lobbyist for the American Bankers Association. "We've been arguing [for several years] that the regulatory structure we have guarantees we're good citizens" who wouldn't make illicit use of the technology, he said. Now the government appears to have agreed. Current regulations require that U.S. companies apply for permits before exporting anything but the simplest versions of encryption products. To export more sophisticated technology, organizations must have a plan for creating so-called "spare keys." That way, law enforcement officials who have obtained a court order would be able to unlock the information. In May 1997, the Commerce Department said it would not restrict the sophistication of the data-encryption technology sold to financial institutions. But it required spare keys and case-by-case licensing. Approvals have been slow. Now the government is doing away with the key requirement, defining more precisely which financial institutions qualify and pledging to end case-by-case approval. Because of concerns about money laundering, the government will grant the new permission only to financial institutions chartered in countries that have agreed to take steps against money-laundering. If U.S. companies want to sell to financial institutions chartered in other countries, they will have to apply for licenses from the Commerce Department. Such provisions still fall short of the demands of U.S. companies. "To take a piecemeal approach [to loosening encryption restrictions] is the wrong direction," said Ed Gillespie, executive director of Americans for Computer Privacy, a lobbying group. "We need a blanket lifting of restrictions with individual prohibitions," such as bans on sending such technology to terrorist states, he said. In a related development, a federal court in Ohio ruled on Friday that posting the text of an encryption program on the Internet, where people all over the world could see it, was not protected by the constitutional right to free speech. The ruling, made late Friday, contradicts a ruling made by a California district court last August. Privacy advocates predict that the issue will be taken up by the U.S. Supreme Court. © Copyright 1998 The Washington Post Company

Private-enterprise wiretapping
by bill.stewart＠pobox.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

STOLEN NUMBERS -- [New York Times, p. 31, 7/5.] Federal investigators said the scam was ingenious in its simplicity: Five people in New York City would tap into public pay phones at major airports across the country, then steal calling-card numbers punched in by unsuspecting travelers. The scheme ended last month with the arrests of four men and one woman. But the case is only the latest machination in a $4-billion-a-year telephone fraud industry that keeps reinventing itself. "This is something we have not seen before," said Boyd Jackson [of] network security at AT&T, one of the industry experts who helped Federal investigators on the case. "And there is nothing I am aware of that customers can do to fully protect themselves." The Secret Service was tipped off by AT&T, Bell Atlantic and MCI after they received an unusually high number of complaints from customers who had recently used their calling cards in airports.

Junger decision
by Cindy Cohn 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

For those who haven't yet heard, Judge Gwin in the District Court in Ohio has granted the government summary judgment in the Junger case. Judge Gwin apparently agreed with the government that the "functionality" of encryption source code, and the government's claims that it only intends to regulate that "functionality" mean that the regulations are not "narrowly and directed at expressive conduct" and so do not merit prior restraint analysis. The Judge then held that the regulations were content neutral, applied the intermediate scrutiny tests and found that the export restrictions meet those tests. I haven't had the opportunity to review the decision yet. As soon as I have, I will post some brief comments. Still no decision from the 9th Circuit in Bernstein.

Nevermind that source code is suppose to be "human readable" material that is _translated_ into function instructions of machine code. A play is normally considered 'protected' free speech under US law, but what if robot was created which acted out the play and Gwin's argument was extended to apply the situtation where a play performed. Would the play itself no longer be a protected form of free speech, because it is seen as "functional" instructions to the robot actor? Would the playwrite become responsible for the robot's actions, such as killing a character/actor? As a programmer, I have "acted out" source code myself, as part of the debugging process. It is normally called "a walkthrough," so the difference between source code and a play is not as broad as some people may view it. I have followed the source code like a script, acting out the instructions like stage directions in a play. Does it matter who might 'read' the material, in regards to the protection of free speech? Whether it is written so that Russians or computers might be able to read it? If source code is written on a napkin, it can be currently exported, but what if tomorrow a vendor announces a 'napkin computer' which can directly read from napkins akin to a super-low densiy floppy disc.

A note on the latest randomness quarrel
by nobody＠REPLAY.COM 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

* Never use "the lowest few bits" or (t1>t2)?1:0 for the actual random number generation. You only use things like that for estimating the amount of entropy in a source. The number of bits of entropy in a pile of bits is one more than the base-two logarithm of the average number of guesses required of a badguy knowing your condidtioning routine, observing what it can, and interfering with your generator to figure out the value of the bits in the pile, so if your studies and statistical analyses estimate that it requires 2^127 guesses to guess the output of your conditioning routine, good for you, you've estimated that somewhere in its input are 128 bits of entropy. Um, I digress...point is, don't use that output straight. Take twice as much unconditioned input, non-random-looking stuff and all, as you estimate your conditioning routine needs to produce a key's worth of entropy and _hash_it_. Your conditioning routine can introduce some little bias you didn't see or make some unnoticed mistake that lets through predictable bits. Hashing can, too, but we've studied the hash functions to make sure they're good a lot more than we've studied your conditioning procedure. * A badguy's introduction of extra events doesn't poison your randomness. A badguy could introduce a multitude of predictable-but-random-looking events to make your generator close shop before it has enough unpredictable events to get its entropy. However, that only works if extra events make your generator stop collecting earlier. The amount of time it spends collecting randomness shouldn't depend on _any_ output of the generator, because that needlessly leaks entropy. Also, a badguy could introduce two nearly-simultaneous events near the beginning of the process, when it can be fairly sure that the wait between its events and the previous event will make a zero or make the lowest few bits of the delay between the bits match a certain value. (Interpreting that sentence is left as an exercise to the reader :) However, you can only do this in a system where your conditioning routine allows extra events to cause the routine to output bad bets. However, if you hash your raw data rather than using one of those conditioning routines, it's nearly -- nearly, that's your cue to say it has to be always -- impossible to weaken the output without knowing the other data hashed. Third, el badguy could introduce so many events that the gap between events was always less than the measurement threshhold. However, note that the Geiger counter, the computer, and the operator would all fail under these circumstances. Therefore, pretty much any strategy allowing extra events to kill entropy is flawed. ================================================================================ /// anonymous : nobody(a)replay.com : http://replay.com /// ================================================================================

Junger Press Release

To: jvd-announce(a)samsara.law.cwru.edu Subject: Press Release: Judge holds software is not protected speech Date: Wed, 08 Jul 1998 09:39:36 -0300 From: "Junger v. 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?
