InfoWarriors around the globe have already been preparing for 'The Son of Clipper' and 'The Daughter of GAK'. The defenders of Freeh-Dumb know that the key to totalitarian access to communications/information is to slip in the back door of new technolgies via those who develop and produce that technology. The anti-trust actions against Intel are for the purpose of negotiating a foothold in programmable CPU's, etc. The anti-trust outrage against MicroSoft is meant to be a million-dollar-a-day punishment for reneging on their deal to provide GAK hooks in Internet Explorer 4.0. Look for MS and Intel to string the government along in this regard, while delaying long enough to let the Y2K problem force the government's hand in their desire for total control of the Information Highway Robbery system. The battle is for control of the New Electronic Jerusalem. Sincerely, Your 'other brother' Deitweler

PGP Inc PR cover-up
by Adam Back 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

I wonder about the sudden lull in the pgp5.5 CMR argument: have PGP Inc enforced a blanket ban on participation in list discussion of the topic by their employees? Even our anonymous PGP employees posting via remailers on cypherpunks seem to have stopped. PGP Inc seemed to me to be heavily losing the argument where ever employees have spoken on the topic. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be translating into rejection of the CMR feature, nor of adoption of less dangerous alternatives such as forward secret transport level security, shorter lived encryption keys, and separate storage keys. Perhaps it will take an official government snoop endorsement of pgp5.5 before the danger is acknowledged; by then the damage will have been done. Meanwhile over on ietf-open-pgp: The ietf-open-pgp forum for discussion of development of the now IETF controlled OpenPGP standard seems to have undergone a coo. Cypherpunk Lutz Donnerhacke had pre-empted Rodney Thayer and PGP's Jon Callas draft which had been slow coming by producing a competing draft before them. Lutz's draft was not sympathetic with PGP Inc's CMR, and even included SHOULD features encouraging separate storage keys. John Noerenberg (appointed IETF chair) over-ruled Lutz, and wrested editing of the draft from him, and demonstrated some petty power wielding in over ruling a vote on terminology Lutz had set up -- Lutz had already said he didn't care about the outcome, and just called the vote as a quick way to resolve argument. Now we are waiting for Jon Callas to release the new draft. Wonder whether it will include CMR or not :-) Join in the battle: subscribe by sending email with body "subscribe ietf-open-pgp" to <majordomo(a)imc.org>.

Either Klintonkov, the congresscritters, and the directors of everyone's favorite TLAs have *COMPLETELY* lost their marbles, or the word 'constitution' is about to become very un-PC. Get your plane tickets to countries where sanity still remains (if there are any left) before international air travel is suddenly banned because of 'terrorist threats to national security'.

Request For Cash: TruthMailer services at dev.null
by TruthMailer 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

The TruthMailer service at dev.null has become very unpopular. So unpopular, in fact, that we are now approaching limitations in what our abuse department can handle. The great outrage this weekend and subsequent delays in spamming various mailing lists are the result of this. For our immediate needs, we could sure use some more DRUGS, ALCOHOL, and BROADS. If a million people could donate $1,000 apiece, this would be great. If one million people donate $100,000 apiece, we can buy Micro$oft. Anonymous snail mail with anonymous cash (US dollars or money order) would be appreciated. If you want to be acknowledged as a donor on our arrest sheets, we can do that too. The address to send to is: Electronic Forgery Foundation Box 281, Bienfait, Saskatchewan CANADA S0C 0M0 A thousand bucks or whatever you can afford. We'll take drug, alcohol and loose women donations, too. Contact Louis J. Freeh <toto(a)sk.sympatico.ca> if you have something to donate. It might be a sting operation, but I'm not sure; Louis will know. PCP DustMan / Home Drug Lab for Molecular Structure and Design For an anti-reality drug recipe, send me mail with subject "Hi(gh)". Append "+realitysucks" to my abusername to ensure entrapment. Decryption is too important to leave to the recipient--Louis J.
