FWD: Julf Forced to Reval Names

The article below was posted to the newsgroup alt.religion.scientology. I cannot as of yet verify the contents. Rich >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Today on 22nd of August the local court of first instance in Helsinki decided that Johan Helsingius has to reveal the email adress asked for by the Police Department of Helsinki. This has to be done within 30 days when summoned for interrogation. Since this is merely a part of a case, this decision can't be appealed. If Helsingius still refuses to reveal the info he will be repeatedly fined and ultimately jailed for up to six months. The decisions about fines and jail can be appealed, but an appeal won't stay the execution of the ordered fine/jail, only a judgement of the appeals court will. The questions about different appeals in this case are somewhat complex and regarding the possibility to appeal it was a split decision (4-1). The court ruled against Helsingius in this matter. During the hearing Helsingius argued against this view in many ways: he objected on constitutional grounds and on grounds relating to statutes regarding criminal investigation. This information is based mainly on message <4vi0tt$geq(a)idefix.eunet.fi> in the local Finnish newsgroup sfnet.keskustelu.laki, by Kaj Malmberg, the police officer in charge of the investigation of the matter where Scientology scriptures were posted through anon.penet.fi. More reports from this case will probably follow soon.

Encrypted tape archive solution?
by ichudov＠algebra.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Hi, I have a linux system and create tape archives every night. Most sensitive data files are encrypted, but I want the whole tape archive to be encrypted just for the peace of mind. Is there any simple solution for linux 2.0 that allows to create encrypted archives? Another question: suppose I use Matt Blase's CFS. Is it safe to backup the _encrypted_ files, and not the mounted directory that looks decrypted? (i.e., not the "attached" filesystem). Thanks, - Igor.

Cypherpunk voting - ITAR or CDA
by Vincent Cate 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Dole says he would fix the ITAR problem, but try to keep something like CDA. Clinton is keeping ITAR and signed CDA. But not having the religious right he might soften on CDA. The courts seem to be throwing out CDA much faster than ITAR (some fast track to the supreme court built into the law). It also seems like ITAR is the more important thing to fix (it is easier to move pornography etc out of the US than major software companies). So it seems Dole is the better vote. Is this important enough to many cypherpunks to actually determine their vote? -- Vince ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Vincent Cate vince(a)offshore.com.ai http://www.offshore.com.ai/vince/ Offshore Information Services http://www.offshore.com.ai/

This is absurd, we both subscribe to the same mailing list, cypherpunks, thereby anything I post to the list will be abusively e-mailed to abuse(a)netcom.com . Also, It is inherent that posting to usenet invites e-mailed responses, which would make what he is doing even more abusive.

8-24-96. NYP: "Investigators Look at History of Terrorism to Compile a List of Suspects in Crash." Over the years, terrorists have demonstrated frightening expertise in making bombs and concealing them. "The fact of the matter is that we found out terrorists could create bombs that were very, very difficult to detect," says the FBI. "A fairly small amount, well placed, can do the job," said Dr. Jimmie Oxley, of the NRC's airline security committee. "A colleague once said he could do it with a gram, in the right place." Bomb-making technology continually advances, as Israeli authorities discovered in 1986 when they intercepted a suitcase being smuggled in from the Gaza Strip. The terrorists appeared to have spun the suitcase on a centrifuge that allowed the plastic explosive to flow into its corners and virtually disappear. Ariel Merari, who has studied hundreds of terrorist incidents, says bombers are limited only by their own imaginations when it comes to building bombs and finding ways to get them aboard airliners. "However," he said, "the use of sophisticated bombs are more likely to be the work of state-sponsored terrorism than anything else." ----- http://jya.com/hyster.txt (11 kb) Via: www.anonymizer.com HYS_ter

It was one of those terrorist spams where they apologize for wasting your time and tell you that you can stop getting spammed by replying to the message. Well, I really hate giving in to terrorists, no matter what form they take. And I'm sick and tired of spam. So, I'm starting a project called SpamBot. You feed it a message and a list of addresses and the bot send the message to those addresses until they reply with an appropriate message indicating that they are at least looking into the problem. Some people may say that this is sinking to their level. So it is, but I think its time that system administrators realized that there are people who don't appreciate being the target for shotgun marketing schemes (none of which have been of any use to me).

http://www.metareality.com/~nathan/visit.cgi/html.Spam Title: Spam (Not the Hormel product) <a href="http://www.metareality.com/~nathan/visit.cgi/html.Spam" >[Fighting Spam] : [Graffiti] : [Home] : [Limericks] : [Linkage] An honest politician is one who takes your bribe AND votes as you ask. Spam (Not the Hormel product) Anyone familiar with the usenet has seen it. It's the vile stuff that brain-dead get-rick-quick scheme promoters and professionsal advertisers foist upon us all with increasing regularity. There are (to date) two species of spam, differentiated by the mechanism by which they are delivered. Each has its own defining charateristics, each has its own sub-species, but both have two things in common: they're made possible by the workings of the internet, and they're both examples of the same type of 'cost-shifting' that made junk faxes illegal. Contrary to postal junk mail, where the sender bears the full cost of delivery, the spammer bears only a fraction of the cost of delivery; the remainder of the costs are borne by us, the recipients. It's a waste of your bandwidth, your disk space, and your time. email spam Messages delivered by electronic mail to large numbers of recipients who did not ask for or otherwise solicit the messages. It's the junk mail of the 21st century, only worse. usenet spam Messages delivered by usenet to large numbers of newsgroups whose chartered topics are unrelated to (and may even explicitly forbid) the topic of the message. Not enough people seem to realize that there are constructive ways to deal with it, and to reduce the chance that you'll have to deal with it again in the future. What to do What NOT to do The most effective is to write some polite email to the administrator of the site from which the spam originated. You'll soon learn that most system administrators are very unhappy about users who spam the net. It's always gratifying when they write back to tell you that the offending account has been terminated. Start reading <a href="usenet://news.admin.net-abuse.misc">news.admin.net-abuse.misc to learn more about how to deal with spammers. If there's a 1-800 number, call it to express your displeasure. It might please you to note that 1-800 numbers typically cost them a small amount of money with each call. How much do you pay for your disk space and bandwidth with each unsolicited bit of email? It's only fair, right? Grab your telephone, or even pay them a visit in person. You generally have to have access to a unix command line to find the phone numbers and addresses, unless you're dealing with the same <a href="http://www.metareality.com/~nathan/visit.cgi/spam/html.Offenders">spammers that have been bothering me. Why stick to email? If they're in your area, tell them face-to-face that you object to their tactics. Don't post a follow-up message in the same newsgroup. Do you really think that the spammer is going to re-visit thousands of newsgroups to see what people had to say? The same goes for mailing lists. If you get spammed via a mailing list, never reply to the list. Your words will just get re-broadcast to everyone else on the list, thus doubling the nuisance created by the spammer. Fun stuff that doesn't get results, but might be good for a laugh RecyclingIf they enjoy sending spam, then it only makes sense that they wouldn't mind getting their own, right? Just for kicks, forward each new spam to the spammers who have pestered you in the past. While I can't vouch for its effectiveness, it does reek of poetic justice, and it makes me feel a little better. It usually makes people laugh out loud when I explain it, too. <img src = "http://www.metareality.com/~nathan/images/SMILE.GIF"> A Pre-emptive Anti-Spam TacticWhy wait to get spammed, when you can see them coming in <a href="news:news.admin.net-abuse.misc">news.admin.net-abuse.misc? <a href="http://www.metareality.com/~nathan/visit.cgi/spam/html.p.Pre-empt">Let the spammers know in advance that they will be charged (insert dollar amount here) if they send you any junk mail.

See also their <a href="http://www.mci.com/aboutmci/news/nfr/spam.shtml">online policy statement. Note that MCI's seriousness about these statements has been severely questioned in light of their (mis)handling of the Moneyworld/CHAG spammer. 30 days between announcing that the situation is being dealt with and finally cutting off a spammer with message-per-week spamming speed? This is pretty disgusting in light of the good press MCI got when they announced their spam policies. It's starting to look more like a PR stunt than a policy statement. I can only take comfort knowing that at least their sysadmins are aware of (and frustrated with) the situation. I must disclaim that civil legal issues may be involved in the MCI/Moneyworld dispute, so there may be things going on that the public isn't aware of. Still, for MCI not to have covered its corporate ass does not speak well of MCI's sincerity or the competence of MCI's lawyers. Outlaw Junk EMail Now!

Litigation to the rescue! $500 fines for junk mail via the courts. Sounds like promising tactic for dealing with intra-USA spammings. <a href="http://www.metareality.com/~nathan/visit.cgi/spam/html.FaxLaw">Some commentary on this law was posted to usenet a while back. <a href="http://www.usps.gov/websites/depart/inspect/chainlet.htm">The U.S. Postal Service on Chain Letters Contrary to what the make.money.fast crowd would have you believe, these scams are illegal. See the aforelinked page for details, and and consider talking to the appropriate <a href="http://www.usps.gov/ncsc/locators/find-is.html">postal inspector as well. <a href="http://www.bbb.org/council/complaints/consumerform.html">The Better Business Bureau These folks will be happy to be notified of 'improper selling practices' via the aforelinked form. Anti-Spam lists This is a relatively new phenomenon. People are starting to offer the 'service' of collecting lists of addresses of folks who do not want to get spam. I think this is a bad idea, since it attempts to legitimize junk email, by implying that if an email address is not on the list, it's prefectly OK to send junk email. The other problem with this idea is that there are going to be several of them, and no junkmailer is going to filter their list using each "service." Thus, it will be up to the recipients to track down all of the "services." Currently there are at least three running. One is at http://dm1.com/Epreference/epref.html, one is at http://www.kenjen.com/nospam, and I don't have an URL for the last - it was sent to me via unsolicited email, naturally. Terms of Service and Acceptable usage policies Most Internet service providers require that their customers agree to a set of terms of service (TOS) or an acceptable usage policy (AUP). A random sampling: <a href="http://www.mindspring.com/aboutms/policy.html">Mindspring's policy, Primenet's AUP, MCI's spamming policy, and the terms and conditions for my own ISP, <a href="http://webfaq.halcyon.com/faq/nwn/nwntac.txt">Northwest Nexus (a.k.a. halcyon.com) I should note that while Northwest Nexus doesn't describe spamming in their terms of service, they have booted more than one spammer in the past. It surprises me greatly that they aren't explicit about this in their published terms and conditions. A spamhandling robot This is very "under construction," but worth mentioning anyhow. I'm putting together some perl code to automate the spam-handling process. Common flavors of net.spam The MAKE.MONEY.FAST scheme A direct descendant of the chain letters of old, this is the pyramid scam of the information age... A quick look at the mathematics behind the idea will expose the scam. Phone-sex cretins They post a couple of lines of text-mode heavy breathing, and usually a 1-800 number that you're invited to call. Call the 1-800 number. Really. It costs them money every time you do! They make their money via the 1-900 number that they ask you to call next. So just call the 1-800 number again. And again. And again. <a href="http://www.metareality.com/~nathan/visit.cgi/html.Spam" >[Fighting Spam] : [Graffiti] : [Home] : [Limericks] : [Linkage] Don't just browse here, say something! Speak your mind in this space here: <input type=submit value="Press here to have your words added to the page."> The true beauty of Usenet is the way it allows free communication. You can be rich/poor/ugly/ religious/atheist or a member of any race/religion or be young/old... That's the wonder - everyone can talk to one another and share ideas. Then spam comes along. It fills up newsgroups with so much noise that no one reads it any more. That wondrous method of communication has been lost. That's why I hate spam. You just don't get it, do you? No, deleting one piece of email doesn't take much. Then again, neither does appealing to a system administrator to have the spammer shut down. Two or three bits of junk a day really is something I can live with, but I don't want to. So why should I? Two or three bits of trash by the roadside won't mean the end of the world. Tossing empty cans out the window costs less than having your trash hauled away - what a great opportunity to save money! If litter were acceptable, a public beach would be no place to spend an afternoon. Postal mail costs the sender with each mailing. This keeps junk postal mail to tolerable levels. EMail costs the sender maybe $20/month, period. Are you so fucking stupid that you don't realize what a cesspool the net would be if this were allowed to grow unchecked? -NW People complain about spam and mass E-mailers. But my question is: what's the big deal? Does it REALLY take THAT much PRECIOUS time out of your day to click and delete a piece of E-mail? I think that the people complaining about others taking advantage of an excellent business opportunity ought to just relax a bit. And just HOW does it COST you to deal with SPAM? With ISP's dropping access prices and providing unlimited access to the internet, how could it possibly COST someone to get an E-mail message? I think you people really need to just kick back and relax already. Geeze, if it wasn't SPAM what else would you find to complain about? Spam isn't about content, spam is about quantity and cost shifting. TV spam would be the same ad on every channel at the same time. Print spam would be junk mail sent postage due or charge-on-delivery. With the ads on TV and in newspapers, the advertisers pay the expenses associated with publishing their ads. With net spam, the recipients pay the expenses associated with carrying the ads. That is the key difference. The costs of ads in traditional media help to support the very media that deliver the ads. With net.spam, there are no costs, and the ads just serve to sap the medium. All you need is a free trial account (AOL, interramp, or earthlink, etc are famous for this), and you can broadcast a huge amount of spam before anyone notices. Or, you can pay for an account with MCI, and broadcast huge amounts of spam for 30 days after the sysadmins realize what's going on. -NW Net-based spam is not the only form of spam. There is spam in print and spam in TV advertising. Wouldn't you say every Calvin Klein ad on TV, magazines or billboards is spam? How about Budweiser, Lite beer, and McDonalds commercials. If you see any type of advertising that offends your senses, you should feel free to boycott the products, ask your friends to boycott the products, etc. If the company has an 800 number or web site, let them know that you find their advertising offensive. I am really, really, REALLY tired of being solicited to buy things whenever I log on to my computer. I mean, I pay for the phone line, the software, the hardware, the accounts and my time is worth money as well. I get a LOT of e-mail and a SIZEABLE portion of it is junk e-mail. When I read news, about 10% of it is junk e-mail; more if it is a small newsgroup. I want to know what uninformed idiot is selling my address, or where these people are GETTING it. I have never bought anything over the computer. I have bounced unsolicited junk back to the people who send it. (I love how righteously indignant these people are: they send you mail and expect you to buy something from them and when you fail to perform as expected with joy and gratitude...if you should, in fact, protest them wasting your time and resources...they get downright rude and abusive. The presumptuousness of it just really annoys me.) The capper is that I did some artwork for the anti-Canter- and-Siegel "Green Card Lawyers" tees Joel Furr was offering a while ago. The ultimate clue that I am not interested in spam of any sort, but how could they know? It's just amusing. Let it be known that I am not a test market, nor will I buy any of your crap, be it face cream, thigh cream, green cards, stock options, modems, books, herbs, or the golden goose itself. Not interested. I don't know you, I have no reason to trust you, and you are spamming MY mailbox and expecting ME to reward this with money. No, thank you. I've been online for more than 5 years, and I really long for the "good old days" before the Net was "cool". There ya go. My tuppence. Now...where do I go to put my name on the "Don't Send This Person Crap Mail" list? (Laugh) SPAM is only going to go away if we make sure companies learn that SPAMming doesn't get costumers to buy thier products and it does more to stop potential costumers from buying thier products. I've heard a couple of different conflicting stories about the origins of the use of the word spam in this context. The most popular version suggests that is was inspired by the Monty Python skit in which virtually every item on some restaurant's menu includes spam in some form or other. The waiter's recitation of the menu becomes unintelligible except for '...and spam, spam with..., spam salad, ...with spam, spam mixed with..." and so on. It really picks up when the Vikings start chanting "spam-spam spam, spam, spam-spam spam, spam...." ad nauseum. This is what the net would be like if this stuff was allowed to continue unchecked. If that's not a horrifying thought, maybe you should see the skit in question. My personal belief is that geeks (who make up much of the 'net community (myself included), much of Monty Python's audience, and probably most of Monty Python's cast) just tend to use the word spam when more appropriate words don't come to mind readily. For no particularly good reason, it really stuck this time. -NW Due to popular demand, I've expanded the first couple of paragraphs to better explain what spam is and why it's such a pain in the ass. Personally, I'm getting two to five unsolicited email messages every week. This is up from approximately zero unsolicited messages per week a few years ago when I first started using the Internet and Usenet. It's a trend that has been steadily increa sing, especially for the last year or two. It's a trend that really really worries me. It's a trend that is, worst of all, wasting my time! -NW I an working on a Usenet news server designed to filter spam from a news feed and quietly drop it. Announcements in due course (next few months) but if anyone wants to help with other platforms and live feed debugging please mail me. Wow! Thanks for the help. I'll certainly become an anti-spam activist and use your information to good effect. I don't get it! What is SPAM? Pardon my ignorance but what does "SPAM"ming mean? "SICK PEOPLE AGAINST MAIL"??? For the Spammers that have a web page I visit it with a macro every time that I leave my system idle while connected for more then 5 min. This way at least I'm sucking down their site and causing their site to slow down so those that are interest get bored waiting for an over taxed server to show them just what They get for "ONLY $9.99 A MONTH!!!!" and leave with out buying. The only reason they have the site is to make money. No Money, No Site, No Spam. Very nice -- I like the idea of dialing the 800 number in the ad. One might wish to be sure to mention (if there's a message taker or, even better, a human at the other end) that you saw their ad in (insert newsgroup here) -- and no, you're not interested in buying anything, you just wanted to see what they had. Unfortunately, every time you call the 800 number, chances are you're also adding your own phone number to a database that will result in your receiving "junk phone calls" on a variety of useless subjects. Solution? Make the calls from a pay phone, ideally one that doesn't accept incoming calls. Isn't spam remarkably like the countless hours of television (including but not limited to advertisements) that most of us watched in our childhoods? And to think, whoever controls the information going to the youth of the nation controls the future of the nation. Greedy, stupid corporations played a central role in molding us and shaping our opinions, attitudes, and perspectives.

Netscape appears to be bouncing our stuff around within

I've gotten dozens of these "Message body suppressed" things, including copies of my _own_ messages sent out a couple of days ago (and received OK the first time around).

blah PGP/Remailers in the News!
by nobody＠cypherpunks.ca 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Here's an EXCELLENT column on PGP and remailers: Roadside Attractions Along the Information Highway by Dave Farrell [roadside(a)branch.com] Your e-mail doesn't have to be for everyone's eyes Sending e-mail over the Internet can be a very convenient and efficient way to communicate. If things are working right, you can dash off a memo to a friend or colleague halfway across the world and they'll receive it within minutes. (On the other hand, I've sent off important e-mail messages into cyberspace never to hear from them again, but that's another column.) A big drawback of the e-mail, however, is that it is not private. In fact, it's a lot like mailing a postcard to a friend. Just as a lot of people handle your postcard before it gets to its final destination, your e-email mesages pass through a lot of computers before they land in the recipient's in-box. In both cases, there are plenty of opportunites for people to read your messages before they get where they're going. You may not care if someone reads the bean dip recipe you're sending to your Aunt Clara, but sensitive monthly sales reports you're emailing to your boss might be another story. While there's no way to absolutely guarantee e-mail privacy on the Net, there is a fairly simple way to make it extremely hard for prying eyes to read your messages. It's called encryption, and there's a couple of good programs available that can teach you how to encode your messages. Encryption basically involves scrambling your outgoing messages to make them unintelligible. The recipient then unscrambles them on the receiving end, converting them back into plain English. There are several encryption programs available on the Internet. I recommend you try PGP, which stands for Pretty Good Privacy. You can download a free copy of PGP from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Web site: http://web.mit.edu/network/pgp.html. Of course, PGP works only if you take the time to use it. To make that process easier, you should download a copy of Private Idaho, a free program that will make using PGP a point-and-click process. Private Idaho also will enable you to post anonymously to Usenet Newsgroups and do other neat tricks, such as anonymously access Web sites with your browser (you did know that you leave electronic "mouse tracks" when you visit Web sites, didn't you?) You can download a copy of Private Idaho from http://www.eskimo.com/(tilde)joelm. [retypist's note: yes, the article had "(tilde)" in place of "~"] Unfortunately for Mac users, Private Idaho is available only for Windows. If you really want to increase your Internet privacy, you might want to consider using anonymous remailers to send and receive your messages. These remailers strip your messages of your reutrn address and allow you to send e-mail that can't be easily traced back to you. There are many reamilers on the Net. Some are free, some charge. For a nice list to choose from, surf over to: http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/(tilde)raph/remailer-list.html. If you're REALLY paranoid about hiding your electronic tracks, you can send your message through several anonymous remailers, which will obscure your identity over and over again. To learn more about this process, check out http://www.replay.com/staff/usura/chain.html. To save some time typing in the addresses of all the remailers you want to use, try the Community ConneXion at: http://www.c2.org/remail/by-www.html. This site will allow you to point-and-click your way through the process of selecting remailers and sending your messages. Finally, for more information about on-line privacy, visit the Electronic Privacy Information Center: http://www.epic.org.

MUD anyone?
by Rev. Mark Grant 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Would anyone out there be interested in helping set up a crypto-anarcho-capitalist MUD to play around with some of the social aspects of crypto-anarchy and anarcho-capitalism? I can probably hack together a basic lpmud in a month or two if someone has a machine which it could run on and which could run a mailing list for those involved. On the software front, there's a demo of version 0.86 of Privtool on utopia.hacktic.nl in /pub/replay/pub/PGP/unix (or something like that), and my mailbot is also on there somewhere. Amongst other things that allows you to remotely maintain Web pages by sending PGP-signed email (actually, PGP-encrypted would probably also work if you don't mind leaving a secret key on the system with no passphrase). Doesn't yet protect against replay attacks and there are a few known bugs but it's only an Alpha. If anyone wants to use it for real I can mail you a patch for the worst problems. Finally, does anyone outside the US have the last few months of the list available for ftp? I'd like to catch up on what I've missed since I unsubscribed and using the Web archive is far too slow and expensive. Please send replies to me directly as I'm travelling and consequently off the list. Looks like I'll be on a mad bus trip round New Zealand for most of next month so Net access will be erratic.

But not having the religious >right he might soften on CDA. Clinton is, of course, not a liberal. Censorship doesn't bother him much. (He's a friendly statist who likes to control your money more than your life, so he might occasionally feel a twinge of guilt, but not enough to change policies, and only if the polls are suggesting that guilt would be a useful PR move.) Dole, on the other hand, stands for being in his party longer than anyone else, doing a competent job of insider coordination, and keeping Big Agribusiness happy. His speechwriters are mildly opposed to free trade, but like US exports. Crypto software is not a product of Archer Daniels Midland, Supermarket to the World, but if the polls suggest that it's as popular as corn oil, he'll have his speechwriters write a speech in favor of it. Ross Perot's gonna get together a team of experts to decide on it, though if we allow those Canadians to get American Encryption Technology before we throw out NAFTA, there's gonna be a giant sucking sound as all our cryptography business gets hoovered up to the Frozen North. Ralph Nader knows that Clipper is unsafe at any speed, and would certainly allow open public inquiry into the military-industrial complex's encryption policy-making process, though any technological exports would require an environmental impact statement, 2% of sales would be required to be on solar-powered low-emission computing equipment, and foreign cryptographic developers would have to be paid a living wage. Dr. John Hagelin (no, not _that_ Hagelin) knows that mathematics operates in harmony with Natural Law, and his party will introduce scientifically proven techniques for reducing the entropy level of messages, and eliminating the stress and paranoia that lead people to hide the content of their messages. Further more, special teams of Sidhi(tm)-trained technicians will provide telepathic transmission for areas with high levels of stress, which has been shown to reduce conflict when only 1% of the telephone callers are accessed using these Scientifically Proven Techniques. Bring an offering of fruit and flowers to the polls. The Socialist Worker's Party statement will be available as soon as the Teamsters election results allow appointment of a bargaining unit for the Bit Twiddlers, Left Shifters, and Table Look-up locals to negotiate protocols with network management, and categorically refuses the counter-revolutionary demands for EXclusive Or which the multi-national corporations intend to impose on the work force. ..... As you might have guessed, I'm still planning to vote Libertarian :-) Free minds, free markets, free speech, and I guess Harry Browne will do as good a job as any candidate we've had in a while. Vice-presidential candidate Jo Jorgenson has run her own software business for a while. ...... However, if you're tired of the Lesser of N evils, Cthulu's export policy is that you can't escape anyway, and your puny mortal lives will be absorbed along with his morning coffee. Your encryption technology is futile against the Elder Ghods, and the arcane formulas in the Cyphernomicon of that mad physicist Tim The Enchanter may summon spirits from the vasty deep, but no secrets are safe from Nyarla-S-Ahothep who knows all and sees all. # Thanks; Bill # Bill Stewart, +1-415-442-2215 stewarts(a)ix.netcom.com # <A HREF="http://idiom.com/~wcs"> Reassign Authority!

What I'd prefer is a configurable POP server for an ISP - something that you could set to, say, only send a brief header and 1st couple lines of any message that is either over a certain size, repeated, or passed the limit for messages from a given host. So you could set certain people to have their messages pass directly through, something like cypherpunks might get more and all others could be limited to something like 10/day.

If the Republican candidate had been Forbes, there might have been a "don't let the great be the enemy of the good" argument against voting Libertarian. As it stands now, Dole is, at best, arguably the "lesser of 2 evils," which still comes out evil in my book. As the designated partisan Libertarian on the list, I urge all cypherpunks to vote their consciences and pick Harry Browne and Jo Jorgensen. The mere fact that the media is [grudgingly] covering us suggests we are finally doing something right, and Harry is winning many Internet polls despite much fawning, hopeful coverage for the big-eared billionaire hypocrite stealth-candidate, who has no position but certainly would enjoy having the TLAs investigate his enemies. I fully accept that it is likely Dole or Clinton will win, but I think it will fill an important cypherpunk goal if the Libertarian Party candidates get a vote large enough to be the margin of victory, and I will be very proud of my vote, no matter who wins this election. Vote your consciences for your own sake, and the sake of the children who will inherit the debt of the irresponsible statists in power now.

Leyden recalls prowling the streets at night, pummeling "blacks, Hispanics ! and longhairs" with his steel-toed boots.

Leyden is the first skinhead to voluntarily lend his expertise to the ! Wiesenthal Center since it opened in Los Angeles 19 years ago.

But Leyden offered inside information about neo-Nazi methods: how they ! recruit young members by inciting racial violence on school campuses and ! by distributing music that preaches the death of Jews, blacks and other ! groups. ! ! He also discounted his disillusionment with a movement that labeled his ! own mother inferior because she was handicapped.

"I got the impression that this was a person who has had a profound change ! of heart and who is willing to tell the world, 'I was wrong,'"" recalled !

Now the Wiesenthal Center and Leyden are putting his firsthand knowledge ! of neo-Nazi activities to work -- a plan that has earned Leyden a ! "traitor" label among former skinhead associates. ! !

[off-topic] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Today, I returned to school, a bright shiny venture into my junior year. Only slightly dampened by the closing of campuses - well, I should explain. High school campuses have typically been "open" here in Albuquerque, which to put it simply means that school is dismissed for lunch and opens again after it. But, in the traditional school style, that is, punishing the many for the crimes of the few, the politically-controlled and very partisan school board decided last year to close them, which would of course stop all the fights and robberies and graffiti during the noon hour, and not push it up two hours at all. Of course. This is rather drastic, so in an atypical show of clemency the people who do things to me for my own good decided to phase it in. Thus it affects me not at all - or so I thought. So my mood today wasn't really affected by this violation of rights, because I had my mind on other things. Until I was informed that I must carry my school-issued picture ID that is barely recognizable as human at all times, because at any time on campus a Gestapo agent disguised as a "campus aide" could demand to make sure that my papers were in order. When going to lunch I was carded to leave campus. Taking out my anger on someone who probably didn't deserve it, I said, "Are my papers in order, mein Fuehrer?" My, my, if looks could kill. The disturbing thing is that while I know it really is not a big deal to have to carry a dumb school ID so that bad rules can be enforced, no one around me understood why I was upset. I am worried that happenings of this sort will give Big Brother an opening for universal IDs and internal passports. No one will question it because they've been doing it their whole lives. And of course, anyone who does object must be a pervert, criminal, or other social deviant. =============================================================================== David Rosoff (nihongo ga sukoshi dekiru) ---------------> drosoff(a)arc.unm.edu PGP public key 0xD37692F9 -----> finger drosoff(a)acoma.arc.unm.edu or keyservers 0xD37692F9 Key fingerprint = 25 7D AA 01 85 41 43 89 50 5A 33 76 F1 F1 99 67 Do you know who's reading your email? ---> http://www.arc.unm.edu/~drosoff/pgp/ Is it a forgery? --- I have PGP signed all email and news posts since May 1996. =============================================================================== "Your Honor, I have been following this person's movements for quite some time, and I can prove that he is in possession of secret government underwear." -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBMhkizhguzHDTdpL5AQHGTwQAq2bYziwWjHsTm2WgxBpN6ch8vZcpVkRQ oKfR1XfshzObsvNup4Hr5q1LsgWXef8nb1Br49TSGj4u4GBWrfzuowftfDkem5JN YXpIX6QSsZeXKMMW06S7MnOM6qL5u83s8SKCS+amnpVEQcxhFNXkb8CMo0+6Kwid NZwSgwjtgYU= =c1Tj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- >From cpadmin(a)toad.com Sun Aug 25 13:19:48 1996 Received: from mailhost1.primenet.com (mailhost1.primenet.com [206.165.5.51]) by toad.com (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id NAA18464 for <cypherpunks(a)toad.com>; Sun, 25 Aug 1996 13:20:36 -0700 (PDT) Received: from primenet.com (root(a)usr06.primenet.com [206.165.5.106]) by mailhost1.primenet.com (8.7.5/8.7.1) with ESMTP id NAA00959 for <cypherpunks(a)toad.com>; Sun, 25 Aug 1996 13:20:34 -0700 (MST) Received: from heavily.censored.org (heavily.censored.org [206.165.50.96]) by primenet.com (8.7.5/8.7.5) with SMTP id NAA25762 for <cypherpunks(a)toad.com>; Sun, 25 Aug 1996 13:07:27 -0700 (MST) Message-Id: <2.2.16.19960825201159.232fec0e(a)primenet.com> X-Sender: carolab(a)primenet.com X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 2.2 (16) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Date: Sun, 25 Aug 1996 15:11:59 -0500 To: cypherpunks(a)toad.com From: Censored Girls Anonymous <carolann(a)censored.org> Subject: Re: Ruritania I thank all of you for your fine detective work.

They speak of countermanding viewpoints, but in the end the truth lies somewhere in the middle. There will undoubtely be watered down versions of both laws in effect. My guess is that a new ITAR style would run along the lines of current arms trafficking regulations. That means no trading yer crypto with the so-called rogue states.

It's crucial that Netizens make net concerns a high profile issue in the online chats this year. You can do this by showing up and simply asking the right questions. Does the candidate think the Communications Decency Act is an effective method of shielding kids from material online, or parental control? Does the candidate support the use of privacy-enhancing encryption technology? Does the candidate support program such as THOMAS, that put government info in the hands of the people? If you don't ask these questions, they'll never know we care. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHAT SCHEDULE [Notably missing from this schedule are Senators Patrick J. Leahy (D-VT) and Russell Feingold (D-WI) and House member Jerrold Nadler (D-NY). All three have impeccable cyberspace credentials and we look forward to seeing them online.] All chats take place at http://ichat.dncc96.org:4080/ Monday 08/26/96 - 4:20pm CDT Governor Lawton Chiles 08/26/96 - 7:15pm CDT House Candidate Michela Alioto 08/26/96 - 10:30pm CDT Congressman Bill Richardson Tuesday 08/27/96 - 9:00am CDT Senate Candidate Houston Gordon 08/27/96 - 5:00pm CDT Congresswoman Nita Lowey Wednesday 08/28/96 - 9:00am CDT - Senate Candidate Houston Gordon 08/28/96 - 10:00am CDT - Governor Gaston Caperton 08/28/96 - 3:00pm CDT - Senator John D Rockefeller IV 08/28/96 - 4:00pm CDT - Senator John Kerry 08/28/96 - 4:30pm CDT - Senator Harry Reid 08/28/96 - 9:30pm CDT - Representative Corrine Brown Thursday 08/29/96 - 10:30am CDT - Senate Candidate Houston Gordon 08/29/96 - 2:30pm CDT - Senator Kent Conrad 08/29/96 - 3:30pm CDT - Representative Eliot Engel 08/29/96 - 6:00pm CDT - Representative Barney Frank 08/29/96 - 7:00pm CDT - Senators Boxer & Murray Don't miss this opportunity to question the newsmakers on net issues such as free speech and privacy!

8-26-96, NYP: "A Netscape Bid For the Souls of New Machines." Markoff. Netscape plans on Monday to announce that it has created a software company that will enter an alliance with I.B.M., Oracle and four Japanese consumer electronics giants. The venture, called the Navio Corporation, intends to develop refined software for browsing the Internet and a new OS that Netscape hopes will become a standard means for controlling Internet access and basic operations for a broad range of consumer devices. The four Japanese companies in the alliance -- Sony, Nintendo, Sega and NEC -- are dominant in producing a variety of home entertainment devices, and the expected announcement, analysts said, suggested that the Internet, which until now has largely been a business and educational marketplace, would soon vastly broaden its scope. ----- http://jya.com/navios.txt (8 kb) NAV_ios

List of reliable remailers
by Raph Levien 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

I operate a remailer pinging service which collects detailed information about remailer features and reliability. To use it, just finger remailer-list(a)kiwi.cs.berkeley.edu There is also a Web version of the same information, plus lots of interesting links to remailer-related resources, at: http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~raph/remailer-list.html This information is used by premail, a remailer chaining and PGP encrypting client for outgoing mail. For more information, see: http://www.c2.org/~raph/premail.html For the PGP public keys of the remailers, finger pgpkeys(a)kiwi.cs.berkeley.edu This is the current info: REMAILER LIST This is an automatically generated listing of remailers. The first part of the listing shows the remailers along with configuration options and special features for each of the remailers. The second part shows the 12-day history, and average latency and uptime for each remailer. You can also get this list by fingering remailer-list(a)kiwi.cs.berkeley.edu. $remailer{"extropia"} = "<remail(a)miron.vip.best.com> cpunk pgp special"; $remailer{"c2"} = "<remail(a)c2.org> eric pgp hash reord"; $remailer{"penet"} = "<anon(a)anon.penet.fi> penet post"; $remailer{"flame"} = "<remailer(a)flame.alias.net> cpunk mix pgp. hash latent cut post reord"; $remailer{"mix"} = "<mixmaster(a)remail.obscura.com> cpunk mix pgp hash latent cut ek ksub reord ?"; $remailer{"replay"} = "<remailer(a)replay.com> cpunk mix pgp hash latent cut post ek"; $remailer{"ecafe"} = "<cpunk(a)remail.ecafe.org> cpunk mix"; $remailer{"amnesia"} = "<amnesia(a)chardos.connix.com> cpunk mix pgp hash latent cut ksub"; $remailer{'alpha'} = '<alias(a)alpha.c2.org> alpha pgp'; $remailer{'nymrod'} = '<nymrod(a)nym.jpunix.com> alpha pgp'; $remailer{"lead"} = "<mix(a)zifi.genetics.utah.edu> cpunk pgp hash latent cut ek"; $remailer{"nemesis"} = "<remailer(a)meaning.com> cpunk pgp hash latent cut"; $remailer{"exon"} = "<remailer(a)remailer.nl.com> cpunk pgp hash latent cut ek"; $remailer{"vegas"} = "<remailer(a)vegas.gateway.com> cpunk pgp hash latent cut"; $remailer{"haystack"} = "<haystack(a)holy.cow.net> cpunk mix pgp hash latent cut ek"; $remailer{"ncognito"} = "<ncognito(a)rigel.cyberpass.net> mix cpunk pgp hash latent"; $remailer{"lucifer"} = "<lucifer(a)dhp.com> cpunk mix pgp hash latent cut ek"; $remailer{"jam"} = "<remailer(a)cypherpunks.ca> cpunk mix pgp hash latent cut ek"; $remailer{"winsock"} = "<winsock(a)c2.org> cpunk pgp hash cut ksub reord"; $remailer{'nym'} = '<config(a)nym.alias.net> newnym pgp'; $remailer{"balls"} = "<remailer(a)huge.cajones.com> cpunk pgp hash latent cut ek"; $remailer{"squirrel"} = "<mix(a)squirrel.owl.de> cpunk mix pgp hash latent cut ek"; $remailer{"middle"} = "<middleman(a)jpunix.com> cpunk mix pgp hash middle latent cut ek reord"; catalyst(a)netcom.com is _not_ a remailer. lmccarth(a)ducie.cs.umass.edu is _not_ a remailer. usura(a)replay.com is _not_ a remailer.

Supports Request-Remailing-To: field. eric A variant of the cpunk style. Uses Anon-Send-To: instead. penet The third class of remailers (at least for right now). Uses X-Anon-To: in the header. pgp Remailer supports encryption with PGP. A period after the keyword means that the short name, rather than the full email address, should be used as the encryption key ID. hash Supports ## pasting, so anything can be put into the headers of outgoing messages. ksub Remailer always kills subject header, even in non-pgp mode. nsub Remailer always preserves subject header, even in pgp mode. latent Supports Matt Ghio's Latent-Time: option. cut Supports Matt Ghio's Cutmarks: option. post Post to Usenet using Post-To: or Anon-Post-To: header. ek Encrypt responses in reply blocks using Encrypt-Key: header. special Accepts only pgp encrypted messages. mix Can accept messages in Mixmaster format. reord Attempts to foil traffic analysis by reordering messages. Note: I'm relying on the word of the remailer operator here, and haven't verified the reord info myself. mon Remailer has been known to monitor contents of private email. filter Remailer has been known to filter messages based on content. If not listed in conjunction with mon, then only messages destined for public forums are subject to filtering. Raph Levien
