Somebody, probably Vlad, forwarded this via Swiss Remailer. I normally try not to reply to Ignition-Points forwards here, but this one's relevant. "Access devices" often includes things like computer passwords as well as smartcards for building entry. So "Crack a password, lose your computer" would apply as well as "Crack 15+ passwords, get busted". I don't know if that was Senator Sleazy's intent with the bill, but it's an obvious application if not.

It appears the Cypherpunks have infiltrated the FBI and have installed a survailence camera on one of the agents investigating the Cypherpunks. ;-) Here's one of them FBI agents tryin' to track you guys down ;-) , check this out - http://www.cnbc.com/moreinfo/badday.mpeg 4.5 meg (but worth every byte) Stan 'Amazing! How can you tell the dancer from the dance' (Brave Combo - The Jeffrey) Visit 'What's A Meta U (and What's It 2U) http://members.aol.com/WhtsAMetaU/ (Cypherpunks, the Brave Combo's latest studio release ('Group Dance Epidemic - Fun .... and Functional!' - Rounder Records) is themed on my war with the Bucketheads that led me to this list. The cover picture depicts the Bucketheads (a group of people pretending to be having a good time.) It was the leader of the Bucketheads that subscribed me to this list (I'm VERY sure).

Statement on Sixty Minutes by Pauline Hanson
by Global Web Builders 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Date: Sat, 6 Jun 1998 20:00:04 +1000 NEWS RELEASE 6/6/98 60 minutes' Fairytales "This Sunday, 60 Minutes is airing a segment devoted to connecting Pauline Hanson with individuals or groups in the United States. While we don't know who these people are, what is certain is that Pauline Hanson is not in contact politically or organisationally with anyone in the United States - the 60 Minutes story is a fairytale. After hearing of an advertisement for this Sunday's 60 minutes, David Oldfied contacted the programme to check its content. Despite making it clear there was absolutely no communication between Pauline Hanson, her advisers, or the organisation's heads and anyone in the United States, 60 minutes refused to even consider they had manufactured the story. They also refused to allow One Nation an opportunity to rebut their fairytale until the programme the following week. This is a nefariously timed lie. This is deceptive and dishonest journalism at its worst and all credible journalists, whatever their personal feelings, should be appalled at 60 minutes' approach. Regardless of what evidence 60 Minutes produce or what they may state, the whole story is a fairytale fabricated without the slightest basis of truth. There is no connection or communication between the United States and Pauline Hanson or One Nation. While we have no knowledge of such activities, it is possible some individual member may be in contact with people overseas but this, if it has happened, is a personal affair and unrelated to us as an organisation. It should also be understood that One Nation letterhead and other documents have been forged on a number of occasions. Further to this, people have falsely claimed to be party officials and candidates as well as one incident where a person in Western Australia claimed to be a close personal adviser to Pauline when in fact she had never even met him. We are not sure what 60 minutes will put to air, but having spoken to them twice, it is clear they will peddle the lie of links that simply do not exist. Perhaps they have cleverly manufactured a fairytale with the help of people either willing to perjure themselves or who are just not aware they are not really in contact with Pauline or One Nation, but whatever the case, their story is fiction in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd degree. 60 minute's refusal of an opportunity for us to face their fairytale on their programme this Sunday night, in itself, proves their intention to simply maliciously attack Pauline and One Nation by any means regardless of the total lack of truth. 60 minutes has no credibility and should be treated accordingly. Even their Internet story announcing their programme is filled with lies when factual evidence is clearly available by speaking to us, something they chose not to do because the truth would ruin their dishonest and despicable claims." "Pauline Hanson and One Nation is, and will always be, 100% Australian owned and 100% Australian influenced." Statement issued by request of Pauline Hanson MP.

The transaction is so simple that even a high school kid can do it! We at the World Currency Cartel would like to see a uniform global currency backed by Gold. But, until then, we will allow a LIMITED number of individuals worldwide to share in the UNLIMITED PROFITS provided for by the world currency differentials. We will espouse no more political views nor will we ask you to do so. We can say however, that our parent organization, NDML, benefits greatly by the knowledge being shared, as we ourselves, along with YOU, benefit likewise. Your main concern surely will be, how you will benefit. As soon as you become a member, you will make transactions from your home, office, by telephone or through the mail. You can conduct these transactions even while traveling. Don't believe us? Experience it for yourself! ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; Unlike anyone else, we will assure you great financial freedom and you will add to our quickly growing base of supporters and join the list of MILLIONAIRES being created using this very "SECRET FLAW" in the world currency market. ****************************************************************** ****************************************************************** *** DON'T ENVY US, JOIN US TODAY!!!

Tigerteam Contract
by Martin Bishop 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

A request for all tigerteam specialists: If any of you has access to a sample of a tigerteam contract (a company orders an attempt to break into their information system) - for any country - preferably European, I would very much appreciate you directing me to it (or sending it). I have assembled a team of various security specialists but really wouldn't like to step into some legal trap that may have been avoided. My primary concerns are: - attempt to "steal" information that the company considers confidential or classified (are they allowed to authorize such attempt at all and who gets sued if they can't but do it anyway) - possible hinderance or partial destruction of company's information system - software, data, functionality (e.g. when conducting highly violent attacks) - using forged identity (very handy when doing social engineering but what is the legal aspect of it?) - "attacking" company's employees (can a company authorize someone to do a background research on their employees, to hack into their home computers as well, to social engineer them out-of-work, to abduct and threaten them etc.?) - protecting from your own team members (trust nobody: a member of my team could eventually - under threat or some other pressure - insert a backdoor/trojan/virus etc. into the company's information system) Thank you in advance for your answers and have a nice day. Please respond to me directly or CC. Martin Bishop _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com
