By extension what would happen if a white guy called for black people to be banned from any given thing? They'd be called a racist and run out of town, sued, and everything else. I spit on political correctness and affirmative action, and I'm not a racist or sexist either. <spit hack loogie>

Re: Why I Support Microsoft

[ A bit delayed, due to the holidays. ] Tim May writes: > Anyway, the recent government actions against Microsoft are reprehensible > to any person who values liberty. Microsoft is being punished for its > success. Mr. May and others have addressed the government's abuse of Microsoft eloquently and well. It is clear that the DOJ is well out of constitutional bounds with this litigation. It is equally clear that the real problem with Microsoft is that its poorly designed, bloated, _inelegant_ software is pervasive. The solution to both of these problems lies in David Honig's signature: > "Windows 95 is a technologically complex product that is best left > alone by the government..." > ---MSFT Atty B. Smith The President should issue an executive order mandating that all government agencies immediately remove all Microsoft operating systems from their machines, to be replaced with Linux. All Microsoft products should be eliminated as well. The standard text format should be LaTeX. All businesses receiving money from government contracts should be required to use the same tools. This would cut down dramatically on the money spent on software by the government, eliminate compatibility problems between users of different versions of Microsoft products, encourage enormous growth in the Linux software market, and guarantee that Microsoft would never again be considered a monopoly. All this without ever entering a courtroom. Perhaps there's a congressman or two out there who'd like to make some political hay by pushing this from the legislative branch....

If I was wrong, nobody ever corrected me despite my posting the complaint repeatedly to comp.org.cauce.

They never answered. Not him, not me. Speaking of problems: it's definite: the great attempt to censor the Internet has begun in England. Mainly Usenet is under attack: pics of mere nudity are being deleted without any legal process whatsoever. See my posts in comp.org.eff.talk ... I've put two pics of nekked kids up at www.panix.com/~guy as part of the "discussion". They (Demon, UUNET, ...) are deleting both pics and apparently text files too, and reporting them to the police. The Thought Police are here. ---guy

The fact that there is a need for such a >language *designed* and *optimized* for censorship should give the lie >to this comparison. Right. I must be missing something here: PICS is designed to label information under a variety of criteria. The stated reason is that we want to "protect the children and those with frail minds" from "bad" information. Of course the definition of "bad" information varies from person to person. Let's assume PICS doesn't exist. Instead there's a single flag which can go on a web page, USENET post, text file, FTP site, or whatever which denotes whether the material is "suitable for children." I go off and publish bomb-making information. Since that material is available in a high school chemistry textbook with a little synthesis on the reader's part and I don't believe in censorship of information, especially based on age, I mark it "suitable for children." How is anybody going to stop me? I've expressed my opinion. And, after all, SingleFlag isn't for censorship, so theoretically nobody can do anything about it. Of course people won't like this. Further if a bunch of people do that SingleFlag becomes completely and totally useless. The only ways to enforce it are to sue me, throw me in jail, or blacklist me from ISPs. In all three cases censorship is in effect. In the first two cases people scream to the government <Exon> "We *already* censor or rate content on the public airwaves, in computer games, on TV, and at the movies. Why not on the Internet too?" </Exon>, and that's assuming that such a law isn't in place already. So say SingleFlag doesn't exist. Instead we have MultiFlag which rates content on the basis of sexual content, violence, language, and nudity. Again, because I don't believe in censoring content, I rate my material as "no sex, no violence, no lude language, and no nudity." And again, the only way to enforce it is to sue me, throw me in jail, or blacklist me from ISPs. And, again, in all three cases I'm censored. And if all the ISPs censor USENET feeds and HTTP connections, nothing keeps me from playing all kinds of games with TCP/IP (or making my own protocol entirely) and distributing information that way. But then I suppose we have to ban that too, since after all it has no use except to "corrupt the youth of the world" and to espouse politically incorrect thoughts. Now let's say that does happen. I go off and post my pornography anonymously, or stick it on an Eternity server. Well, I guess we'd better ban those pesky anonymous remailers now, right? After all, who needs anonymity unless they have something to hide, right? "Good users are known users," we should have digital signatures required on everything (and they aren't just any digital signature -- that would defeat the purpose. We need some kind of central certification authority!), and ban those politically incorrect opinions -- after all, we have the framework, right? Posted anonymously. After all, this is politically incorrect and I wouldn't want to get on somebody's ban list, right?

RELEASE DATED DEC. 10, 1997 THE LIBERTARIAN, By Vin Suprynowicz How can we reduce voter turnout? Toby, somewhere in the Great Northwest, writes: "I am doing a research paper for my Sr. High School Government term paper. My assignment is 'How to increase voter turnout.' Are there any books or information that I could use to reference, and if you have time could you give me some of your ideas?" I replied: # # # Greetings, Toby -- The book "Votescam," widely available in paperback, is worth a look. But I'm not sure about the premise of your paper, in the first place. Before we can answer the question, "How to increase voter turnout," it seems to me we need to ask "WHO wants to increase voter turnout, and why?" Whether the next election sees 70 percent of registered voters show up at the polls, or 50 percent, or 30 percent, the result will be the same. A member of the incumbent Republicrat Party will be elected. He or she will go to the capital, raise taxes, and increase government meddling in our lives. Freedom will be further eroded. The only folks granted "loopholes" and "exemptions" from this ever-tightening vise are corporate, union, or other special interests who have ponied up tens of thousands of dollars worth of bribes -- euphemistically called "campaign contributions" -- to buy "access." If the folks running this protection racket thought that higher voter turnouts would upset their applecart, dumping them all out of office and replacing them with Libertarians (or anyone who might REALLY decrease the size and power of government), they would be doing everything possible to PREVENT higher voter turnout, starting with re-enactment of the poll tax. Instead, we see our state and local registrars -- FULL-TIME GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES -- urging HIGHER voter turnout, and making it so easy to register and vote that you can now actually do both by mail. Why? To discover their real motivation, look at the recent special presidential election in Bosnia. Because voter turnout was under 50 percent, the United Nations held that vote was INVALID and had to be redone, figuring terrorist gunmen had frightened too many folks away from the polls. The risk to governments now in power is not HIGH voter turnout -- their control over the courtesan press, and restrictions on the ability of third parties to get on the ballot or into televised debates, take care of that. Instead, their fear is that turnout among wised-up victims unwilling to continue endorsing their schemes will fall so low that they will no longer be able to claim any credible "mandate from the people" to continue building their metastasizing police state. So, if we want to see anything change, why isn't the title of your paper "How to REDUCE voter turnout?" "That's outrageous," you'll likely be told. "Voting is how we keep the democratic process strong." Precisely. And the Founders never meant for us to be exclusively or even mostly a democracy, or they'd never have let five Supreme Court justices overrule 218 congressmen. All this vote-counting has actually gotten people believing it's OK to throw away the Second Amendment and restrict the right of the people to keep and bear arms (for example) ... so long as you can get a majority to "vote" for it. Our current problem in this country is that there's TOO MUCH voting going on, on stuff never meant to be subject to government intervention, in the first place. But, if you insist, here's a way to "increase voter turnout": Place every state, local, and national ordinance which currently outlaws, taxes, or regulates any drug or medical device or practice, or any firearm, explosive, or militarily useful device up to and including tanks and shoulder-launched missiles, on the ballot. For good measure, also place on the ballot any existing law which authorizes any tax or fee. Then announce that, under the Sixth Amendment guarantee of a jury trial, it follows that no person may be punished for violating any of these laws unless he or she could reasonably expect to be convicted by a UNANIMOUS vote of a RANDOMLY-SELECTED jury of 12. Since one juror in 12 represents 8.33 percent of the populace, obviously no law which has only 91 percent popular support can be allowed to stand under the clear intent of the Sixth Amendment; only laws with 92 percent popular support can be allowed to stand. Therefore, any law which is OPPOSED BY 9 PERCENT (OR MORE) OF VOTERS IN THE NEXT ELECTION will be stricken from the books. No more prosecutions under that law will EVER be allowed, even if the Legislature tries to re-instate it. If the vote goes 91-9 to KEEP the drug laws, the drug laws are REPEALED. If the vote goes 91-9 to KEEP the gun laws, the gun laws are REPEALED. If the vote goes 91-9 to KEEP the income tax, the income tax is REPEALED. Giving folks the chance to finally CHANGE something, I think that would draw a pretty good voter turnout. Don't you?

Vin Suprynowicz How can we reduce voter turnout? Toby, somewhere in the Great Northwest, writes: "I am doing a research paper for my Sr. High School Government term paper. My assignment is 'How to increase voter turnout.' Are there any books or information that I could use to reference, and if you have time could you give me some of your ideas?" I replied: # # # Greetings, Toby -- The book "Votescam," widely available in paperback, is worth a look. But I'm not sure about the premise of your paper, in the first place. Before we can answer the question, "How to increase voter turnout," it seems to me we need to ask "WHO wants to increase voter turnout, and why?" Whether the next election sees 70 percent of registered voters show up at the polls, or 50 percent, or 30 percent, the result will be the same. A member of the incumbent Republicrat Party will be elected. He or she will go to the capital, raise taxes, and increase government meddling in our lives. Freedom will be further eroded. The only folks granted "loopholes" and "exemptions" from this ever-tightening vise are corporate, union, or other special interests who have ponied up tens of thousands of dollars worth of bribes -- euphemistically called "campaign contributions" -- to buy "access." If the folks running this protection racket thought that higher voter turnouts would upset their applecart, dumping them all out of office and replacing them with Libertarians (or anyone who might REALLY decrease the size and power of government), they would be doing everything possible to PREVENT higher voter turnout, starting with re-enactment of the poll tax. Instead, we see our state and local registrars -- FULL-TIME GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES -- urging HIGHER voter turnout, and making it so easy to register and vote that you can now actually do both by mail. Why? To discover their real motivation, look at the recent special presidential election in Bosnia. Because voter turnout was under 50 percent, the United Nations held that vote was INVALID and had to be redone, figuring terrorist gunmen had frightened too many folks away from the polls. The risk to governments now in power is not HIGH voter turnout -- their control over the courtesan press, and restrictions on the ability of third parties to get on the ballot or into televised debates, take care of that. Instead, their fear is that turnout among wised-up victims unwilling to continue endorsing their schemes will fall so low that they will no longer be able to claim any credible "mandate from the people" to continue building their metastasizing police state. So, if we want to see anything change, why isn't the title of your paper "How to REDUCE voter turnout?" "That's outrageous," you'll likely be told. "Voting is how we keep the democratic process strong." Precisely. And the Founders never meant for us to be exclusively or even mostly a democracy, or they'd never have let five Supreme Court justices overrule 218 congressmen. All this vote-counting has actually gotten people believing it's OK to throw away the Second Amendment and restrict the right of the people to keep and bear arms (for example) ... so long as you can get a majority to "vote" for it. Our current problem in this country is that there's TOO MUCH voting going on, on stuff never meant to be subject to government intervention, in the first place. But, if you insist, here's a way to "increase voter turnout": Place every state, local, and national ordinance which currently outlaws, taxes, or regulates any drug or medical device or practice, or any firearm, explosive, or militarily useful device up to and including tanks and shoulder-launched missiles, on the ballot. For good measure, also place on the ballot any existing law which authorizes any tax or fee. Then announce that, under the Sixth Amendment guarantee of a jury trial, it follows that no person may be punished for violating any of these laws unless he or she could reasonably expect to be convicted by a UNANIMOUS vote of a RANDOMLY-SELECTED jury of 12. Since one juror in 12 represents 8.33 percent of the populace, obviously no law which has only 91 percent popular support can be allowed to stand under the clear intent of the Sixth Amendment; only laws with 92 percent popular support can be allowed to stand. Therefore, any law which is OPPOSED BY 9 PERCENT (OR MORE) OF VOTERS IN THE NEXT ELECTION will be stricken from the books. No more prosecutions under that law will EVER be allowed, even if the Legislature tries to re-instate it. If the vote goes 91-9 to KEEP the drug laws, the drug laws are REPEALED. If the vote goes 91-9 to KEEP the gun laws, the gun laws are REPEALED. If the vote goes 91-9 to KEEP the income tax, the income tax is REPEALED. Giving folks the chance to finally CHANGE something, I think that would draw a pretty good voter turnout. Don't you?

Re: Fw: Jim Bell Sentenced (fwd)

Phillip M. Hallam-Baker <hallam(a)ai.mit.edu> wrote: >FC folk may find this interesting. What Jim Bell was charged >with and admitted was planning and executing attacks on the >IRS. No, that's not correct. He was charged with (and plead guilty to) obstructing an IRS agent (26 USC 7212(a)) and misuse of a Social Security number (42 USC 408). The "attack" he admitted to executing consisted of applying a stinky chemical to the doormat of an IRS office. (see <http://jya.com/jimbell-dock4.htm> for more.) >His 'Assasination Politics' essay was used to demonstrate >motive (amongst other things). That doesn't make any sense - it could conceivably have been introduced to demonstrate intent, or state of mind .. but not motive, at least in the absence of evidence that an active assassination market existed, and the prosecution apparently didn't see fit to mention such evidence to the press, nor to the judge at sentencing. But it's misleading to say that the essay was used to "demonstrate" anything, as it was never introduced into evidence - there was no trial. Jim plead guilty and was sentenced based upon the arguments of his counsel, the prosecutor, and the probation department's presentence report. It's interesting to note that the prosecutor and the defense concurred in recommending to the judge that Jim receive a sentence at the low end of the permissible range, while the probation department (which acts as an "attitude police") urged a sentence of 27 months, at or near the upper end of the applicable guidelines. Jim's analysis of AP and its relationship to our legal/political/social structure was poor, and his behavior juvenile and indefensible. He did not, however, present a credible threat to the IRS, nor should he be punished more harshly because of his political views/ideas. We should not let distaste/disgust for Jim's ideas and tactics blind us to the important legal and constitutional questions lurking beneath the surface of this investigation and prosecution - there's some possibility that the IRS used its investigation of Jim as a threat to other prolific authors on the Internet. For example, copies of the press release announcing the raid on Jim's home were mailed, apparently from computer systems inside the IRS, to individuals active on the Cypherpunks list. The IRS has never before (or since) bothered to notify those individuals about criminal investigations which might otherwise be of interest. One easy conclusion to reach is that the raid was intended to chill those individuals' expressive activity on the Net with respect to Jim and his ideas and the interplay between taxation and anonymity and cryptography. Further, it's worth considering carefully the relationship between Jim's legitimate and constitutionally protected political speech and the criminal trial process. To what extent did Jim's outspokenness about the IRS influence its interest in investigating and prosecuting him? To what extent was his protected speech used to argue that he was ineligible for release on bail pretrial? To what extent did his extended pretrial incarceration pressure him to plead guilty? (Note that as of his sentencing on 12/12, he's already served almost 80% of his term of incarceration.) To what extent did his protected speech influence the probation department to recommend a sentence two and half times as long as that proposed in the plea agreement negotiated by the prosecution and defense? To what extent will his protected speech be used to measure his compliance with the terms of his supervised release? Assuming that one considers a stinkbomb "force", it seems beyond dispute that Jim is in fact guilty of the charges against him - so it's difficult to argue that he was, in fact, wrongfully convicted. But it's also difficult to argue that, but for his AP essay(s), he'd never have attracted the attention nor scrutiny of the IRS, and hence never have been prosecuted. In effect, he's guilty of violating common sense - he shouldn't have drawn attention to himself if he wasn't prepared for a certain amount of scrutiny. But cases like Jim's demonstrate that there's a considerable gulf between the high-school-civics-class idea that we are all equal before the law and the practical world of the criminal trial system. Jim was treated specially at every stage of this process because of what he's written, and that should make every person who values free political expression uncomfortable. Jim's case demonstrates that we're moving closer to a country where one can be prosecuted for thoughtcrime. And that, indeed, should be of interest to FC list members. -- Greg Broiles | US crypto export control policy in a nutshell: gbroiles(a)netbox.com | Export jobs, not crypto. http://www.io.com/~gbroiles | http://www.parrhesia.com
