RFC re simple anti-censorship strategy
by Jim Cook 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

(copy posted to alt.cypherpunks) Motivated by Chiquita's recent censorship of the Cincinnati Inquirer -- and more generally by the challenge of making suppressed documents available on the web without exposing webmasters or their ISPs to legal liability -- I've developed a simple strategy. The approach is similar to Adam Back's Eternity Service in that it combines anonymous posts to Usenet with a news-to-web interface. Unlike Adam's approach, posts are not encrypted -- and are therefore easier to find and cancel. OTOH, this approach is easier, and does not require root privileges, to implement Please see <http://www.panix.com/~jimcook/ntw-test.html> for the demonstration. I welcome comments.

Yea, well that's been a problem for years now, which makes it no less relevant today, but it's hardly news. The author calls this condition at state of war. He's quite right. If the tyrant has any opposition it's from the criminal class, with the liberty squad standing mainly on the side lines giving an occassional muffled cheer and sometimes looking on to see what kind of tactics are being used by the crooks with hopes that they might learn some tactics they were not brave enough to employ themselves. I do not, however, know of any war waged successfully where the opposition is as scattered as the liberty crowd is, therefore, it is being waged on an individual basis with technology, stealth, and the occassional government that has yet to bend its knee to Uncle Sammy (which, by the way, are becoming fewer, not more).

Data Fellows introduces F-Secure NameSurfer version 2.0
by Nina Huupponen 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

For immediate release 3 August 1998 DATA FELLOWS INTRODUCES F-SECURE NAMESURFER VERSION 2.0 Helsinki, Finland, August 3rd, 1998 -- Data Fellows, the global leader in Internet security solutions, has today announced F-Secure Namesurfer 2.0, a new version of its DNS (Domain Name System) management tool. DNS translates host names to IP addresses, which makes it a critical component of IP-based networks. F-Secure NameSurfer provides network managers with an easy-to-use Web interface for DNS administration, saving time and maintenance resources. Its intuitive graphical user interface and automatic error checking prevent network managers from generating faulty DNS data. Faulty DNS data can bring down an entire IP network, so accurate DNS data is essential for reliable and secure intranets and Internet. F-Secure NameSurfer 2.0 has been extensively restructured to achieve peerless performance, especially in large DNS installations. The new version can prevent a network manager from creating records with IP addresses that fall outside his own network. Thus, ISPs can grant their customers permission to change addresses, with the assurance that customers will stay within their own network zone. F-Secure NameSurfer provides significant savings in network management. The intuitive interface reduces the time needed to create DNS configurations. The configurations can be done remotely and by several network managers with personal administration rights. Routine tasks can be delegated to clerical staff. Ultimately, even end-users and ISP customers can manage their own DNS data, using a Web browser. Prime target customers for F-Secure Name Surfer are telecommunication operators, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), and other organizations that need the best tool in the market to manage Internet or intranet security. NameSurfer users include ISPs (such as US WEST !NTERACT, Concentric Network Corp., and FUNET - the Finnish University and Research Network), and international corporations (such as Barclays Bank PLC, Motorola, and UPM-Kymmene). F-Secure NameSurfer 2.0 will be available from Data Fellows' resellers around the world in September 1998. The product will be available for all popular UNIX platforms. Pricing will start at $990. About Data Fellows Data Fellows is one of the worlds leading developers of data security software. The companys ground-breaking F-Secure products provide a unique combination of globally available strong encryption and revolutionary anti-virus software. The integrated F-Secure software family provides complete security solutions for enterprises of any size.

Resources on how to track spammers
by Anonymous 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

These are two address I thought might be useful. This is a guide on tracking down real addresses in usenet faked posts. Once you find the real addresses or at least have a couple good guesses on what provider they use reply to their message and cc: it to the postmaster and technicle contact of all the ISP's you think it might be. They can use message ID's and logs to check where the message originated from. http://newdata.box.sk/neworder/harmless/GTMHH1-4.TXT this is the same for forged e-mail. http://newdata.box.sk/neworder/harmless/GTMHH1-5.TXT The reason I'm sending this is because of the fact that I almost never get spam. When I do I respond quickly and appropriately and the spam dies out. When I joined and then posted to this list I was flooded with mail. Personally I this has to be one of the stupided lists to spam. How many technical peopl that are interested in crypto are really gaing to respond to some of these stupid ads
