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/

The body-suppressed problem seems to be continuing. I'm getting almost no normal list traffic.
