CYBERsitter caught mail-bombing (fwd)

---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Fri, 6 Feb 1998 23:25:04 -0500 From: bennett(a)peacefire.org To: peacefire-broadcast(a)vorlon.mit.edu Subject: CYBERsitter caught mail-bombing CYBERsitter has been caught in the act of mail-bombing someone who wrote a letter to Brian Milburn, the CEO of CYBERsitter, complaining about their product. Spefically, a lady names Sarah Salls sent the following letter to Brian Milburn at bmilburn(a)solidoak.com: http://peacefire.org/archives/SOS.letters/asherah.2.bm.2.4.98.txt She was writing to CYBERsitter regarding their harassment of Peacefire and their blocking of anti-censorship sites, which is described in more detail at: http://www.peacefire.org/censorware/CYBERsitter/ CYBERsitter replied by flooding her account with over 446 junk messages. While the attack was in progress, Ms. Salls had her ISP's postmaster monitor the incoming attack and shut it off. Naturally, her ISP, Valinet.com, kept copies of the mail logs for that day and has passed them on as evidence to their lawyers. A complaint was also forwarded to MCI's security department, which handles network abuse and illegal denial-of-service attacks that are perpetrated by their customers, which include lower-end network users like CYBERsitter: http://peacefire.org/archives/SOS.letters/valinet.2.mci.2.5.98.txt C-Net's NEWS.com picked up on the story and interviewed Sarah Salls, her ISP, me, and Brian Milburn from Solid Oak Software. Their story is at: http://www.news.com/News/Item/0,4,18937,00.html (Note that the C-Net article compares the act of mail flooding with conventional spam, and says that a bill is being considered in Congress that would outlaw what CYBERsitter did. This is not quite true; flooding a person's account with 500 junk messages is a denial-of-service attack, which is already illegal, and it usually gets you in a lot more trouble than spamming would.) Far from denying the accusations, Brian Milburn gave C-Net the following quote: "Certain people aren't going to get the hint. Maybe if they get the email 500 times, they'll get it through their heads... If they send it to my private email account, they're going to get what they get." No kidding, Brian! bennett(a)peacefire.org (615) 421 6284 http://www.peacefire.org/ ---

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{'cyber'} = '<alias(a)alias.cyberpass.net> alpha pgp'; $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{"jam"} = "<remailer(a)cypherpunks.ca> cpunk mix pgp hash middle latent cut ek"; $remailer{"winsock"} = "<winsock(a)rigel.cyberpass.net> cpunk pgp pgponly hash cut ksub reord ?"; $remailer{'nym'} = '<config(a)nym.alias.net> newnym pgp'; $remailer{"squirrel"} = "<mix(a)squirrel.owl.de> cpunk mix pgp pgponly hash latent cut ek"; $remailer{'weasel'} = '<config(a)weasel.owl.de> newnym pgp'; $remailer{"reno"} = "<middleman(a)cyberpass.net> cpunk mix pgp hash middle latent cut ek reord ?"; $remailer{"cracker"} = "<remailer(a)anon.efga.org> cpunk mix remix pgp hash ksub esub latent cut ek reord post"; $remailer{'redneck'} = '<config(a)anon.efga.org> newnym pgp'; $remailer{"bureau42"} = "<remailer(a)bureau42.ml.org> cpunk mix pgp ksub hash latent cut ek"; $remailer{"neva"} = "<remailer(a)neva.org> cpunk pgp pgponly hash cut ksub ?"; $remailer{"lcs"} = "<mix(a)anon.lcs.mit.edu> mix"; $remailer{"medusa"} = "<medusa(a)weasel.owl.de> mix middle" $remailer{"McCain"} = "<mccain(a)notatla.demon.co.uk> mix middle"; $remailer{"valdeez"} = "<valdeez(a)juno.com> cpunk pgp pgponly hash ek"; $remailer{"arrid"} = "<arrid(a)juno.com> cpunk pgp pgponly hash ek"; $remailer{"hera"} = "<goddesshera(a)juno.com> cpunk pgp pgponly hash ek"; $remailer{"htuttle"} = "<h_tuttle(a)rigel.cyberpass.net> cpunk pgp hash latent cut post ek"; 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. remailer(a)crynwr.com is _not_ a remailer.

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

Laptop TEMPEST
by Jim Choate 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Hi, Doesn't the FCC have to test the RF emissions of all laptops as well as monitors for sale as Class A and Class B in the US? Shouldn't that material be available? I searched the main site, www.fcc.gov, but didn't find anything regarding this. I sent a request for instructions on how to obtain the emissions test results on computer monitors and laptops for commercial and non-commercial use, foia(a)fcc.gov. If anyone actualy knows of the location I would be much obliged if you would pass it along. ____________________________________________________________________ | | | The most powerful passion in life is not love or hate, | | but the desire to edit somebody elses words. | | | | Sign in Ed Barsis' office | | | | _____ The Armadillo Group | | ,::////;::-.

Rather, the cyber nannies are probably using their "PC >judgment" to block groups they don't like. These companies are attempting to provide the services desired by their customers. These are generally cautious, conservative parents who want to allow their young children access to the internet without them stumbling over dangerous or disturbing information. Like it or not, many parents are very protective of their children. We have no right to force our own views of childrearing on them. The filtering companies are filling a legitimate need in the marketplace. They are not evil and they are not trying to prevent adults from viewing the material they desire via their own personal accounts. They give concerned parents a sense of safety in allowing their children to use the internet, and in that way allow young people access to the net who would not otherwise be allowed to use it.
