The Cypherpunks RealAudio free account is now activated with password "writecode" (case sensitive -- make them letters small). The user name is still "cypherpu".

Will Spam For Food (Not Spam) / Re: Spare DigiCa$h? / Re: AN APPEAL TO THE HUMAN RACE
by nobody＠REPLAY.COM 17 Dec '03

I find it interesting that the cynical/sinister/paranoid cypherpunk list members seem to be the ones who are most able to predict the future trends of events on the Internet, particularly in areas which surround very major and very minor issues. The Tim May's and Declan McCullagh's shed interesting light on the future course of major events while the Monger's and Dog Boy's turn their precognitive abilities in the direction of the more mundane aspects of the Internet as a reflection of humanity/society. The "Spare DigiCa$h" post gave me pause to reflect how long it will be before technology is sufficiently developed that when we hit our <Pause> key, "CyberBums" will approach and offer to clean our video monitor with an oily rag. Will we be cursed for offering CyberBums a form of e$pare- change which cannot be spent on email-order wine? Will laws be passed which prevent CyberBums from approaching us for e$pare-change within two relay hops of an eCa$h site? Will CyberBums sort through our killfile dumpsters for eTra$h? Was it Kevin Mitrick whose conditions of probation required him to stay off the Internet and away from computers? Will the future bring laws which permit restraining orders against individuals accessing certain parts of the Internet? Sex offenders/sex sites; burglars/financial sites; pedophiles/children's sites? It seems to me that increasing regulations and laws surrounding the access and use of the Internet will require strict laws requiring the user to be able to show verification of identity/age/criminal history/ financial history/(approved government) reputation capital, and all manner of information to place us all in categories needed to monitor our compliance with laws and regulations. Once browsers are required by law to support a certain rating system and children manage to get around it, there will no doubt be laws passed requiring fascist monitoring of who is actually using the software.(And LEA's who demand that phone companies provide them with the ability to trace/locate cellular phone users will undoubtably want the same capabilities with Internet users, in a war against anonymity.) There will be no shortage of James Love's, Kent Crispin's and Hallam- Baker's to call for "reasonable compromise" in order to facilitate fascist censorship on things which we all "unambiguously" agree on (by _their_ way of thinking, of course). The only way to prevent the atrocities perpetrated upon our rights to freedom and liberty in physical space from becoming the norm in CyberSpace is to fight against the systems, the governments and the individuals who are striving to extend their fascist control by building ElectroMagnetic Curtains in CyberSpace, is to prepare now to fight against Electronic Oppression--to prepare for an Electronic Revolution--now.

Hey, this business of signing up the "Cypherpunks" list for a bunch of specialized services is getting old. As guerilla ontology, it's fine. The problem is that all of these messages about what the official, public password is are cluttering up the mail here ( "writecode" is not my idea of an obvious public password). And some of these public sign-ups generate reflecting messages back to the list. In terms of scaling, this sucks. And what's being accomplished? (I confess that when I first saw this announcement that we had been signed up with the name "cypherpu" and the temporary passphrase "Toledo.Francisco," I immediately registered under a different set of names. Now I see that Lucky Green has done the same thing. Hmhhhh, which one came first and is recognized by them?) --Tim May ---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---- Timothy C.

This above is true when analyzed within the boundaries of current cryptographical theory, but has about as much meaning as would the discounting of Einstein's work by an old-school physicist. There was a rather bizarre post to the list a few months ago which layed out a conceptual schematic of new research being done in the area of encryption. Although the post was bizarre, the information it provided was not. As a matter of fact, it seemed to be wider in scope and more advanced in its application than the level currently achieved by NSA and related covert government organizations. {And although the 33 minutes quote may lean toward bragging, it is not off by much.} Research currently being done in the encryption field by those who do *not* tell contains a smattering of new mathematical theory and a significant quantity of analysis which is a close cousin to traffic analysis. The result is that a person using _all_ of the security and encryption capabilities of a strong crypto product is likely to have secure communications, but if they neglect to perform even one of the _minor_ security steps possible, then there is a crack in their communication which can be expanded to a size large enough to drive a tank through. LEA's are not battling to squelch the use of crypto that they cannot readily break--they are battling to slow the growth of strong encryption in order to maintain their current ability to break encryption which is commonly thought to be secure.

One of my favorite quotes is supposed to be from Gibbon's _Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire_ . If I write a book about this stuff, it'll go right on the frontispiece. Something like: "It is quite attractive to posit the end of the world in one's analysis of current affairs, but historically, it hasn't proven to be correct." BTW, I've been looking for the exact quote for about 6 months, without having reread the whole damn book.

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, which is available at: ftp://ftp.csua.berkeley.edu/pub/cypherpunks/premail/premail-0.33.tar.gz For the PGP public keys of the remailers, as well as some help on how to use them, finger remailer.help.all(a)chaos.taylored.com This is the current info: REMAILER LIST This is an automatically generated listing of remailers.

Basically F-C-ed

FBI Probing Planted Explosive Orlando, Fla., August 20 (AP) -- Two explosives were planted in a professor's suitcase to test airport security measures in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, and were discovered when he arrived in Orlando, officials said Saturday. The professor, Paul Holloway of the University of Florida, arrived at Orlando International Airport on Friday afternoon and found his suitcase had been torn, said Brian Kensel, a special agent with the FBI in Tampa. He alerted Northwest Airlines security officials who emptied his bag and found the two devices. No detonators or fuses were with the materials, posing no danger to passengers, Kensel said. "We were satisfied that he was unaware of its presence before it was found at the airport," he added. Holloway had been attending a professional conference in Finland and had traveled through Detroit, Michigan, before arriving in Orlando, Kensel said. He had stopped in Amsterdam on the way, and that was where the device was placed, said Kathleen Bergen, spokeswoman with the Federal Aviation Administration in Atlanta. "It was part of a test," she said. "Basically the bag was inadvertently loaded on board with the explosives still inside." Kensel said such security measures were normal for Europe. "Particularly in Europe, there are grave concerns about security issues," he said. "As a result, they do conduct various security programs regularly. This was part of a routine check of their own security systems. "The bag got away from them basically," he said. -----
