ScentCone writes "The CIA has booked some conference rooms and is [1]working through a simulated 'digital Pearl Harbor' to see how government and industry handle a monster net attack from an imaginary future foe composed of anti-American and anti-globalization hackers. Having been accused of lacking imagination about potential terror attacks, they're using the exercise to better shape the government's roles in a variety of attack scenarios. The networking industry, it seems, is expected to always play a big part in detecting and thwarting such threats, as 9/11-scale economic disruption is a likely bad-guy objective."

/. [Tor Anonymity Network Reaches 100 Verified Nodes]

Joyce writes "[2]Tor is an [3]onion routing anonymous network. It routes your data transfers through a series of encrypted links between random nodes in the network; the greater the number of nodes, the greater the anonymity afforded. To commemorate the 100th verified node in the Tor network ([4]graphs of throughput and nodes mirrored at Imageshack), the [5]EFF are putting up a request for other organisations and personal users to [6]start up Tor nodes of their own. (Tor has been mentioned on Slashdot [7]twice [8]before.)"

In what imaginary universe? Perhaps you need to be chipped and your blood pressure/ penile turgidity monitored when watching FOX, like the brits will soon have. (Proposed for sex offenders, actually.) Of course getting a stiffie while watching US videogame death qualifies you for a cabinet post... ........ A recent pop-Merkin 'News' rag described US psyops which fund 'moderate' moslems. Refurb a mosque here, beam Sesame Street in arabic there, you get props, or so the future-trinitite in DC seem to think. All the more reason for the Colonized to harvest the Collaborators ---they really are Western puppets, knowingly or not. Maybe every Iraqi collaborator needs a US SpecOp team to wipe their ass, like Karzai has. Remember, George in Georgia just missed a *live* grenade. Next time, no hanky to foul the lever, eh? Render unto Caesar.. ---- Orwell was an optimist

[Dissidents Seeking Anonymous Web Solutions?]

The best way to interactively surf anonymously is to find an unsecured WiFi net and kick back. Use a forged MAC, and watch your driving habits. The walls have eyes. Stego is ok if the site is word of mouth (no DNS, no port 80) anyway, kind of a secret knock to get in the speakeasy. But humans get compromised and the B34ST logs the site's traffic. Stego is fine for placing an order with a dissident vendor for a few drams, but a dissident wanting mass meme infection needs to anonymously broadcast, and to everyone. That SMS/ Sprint hack recently posted strikes me as appealing... (And we don't need no ex-navy dolphin to jack the bandwidth...) ------ Three minutes. This is it - ground zero. Would you like to say a few words to mark the occasion? Narrator: ...i... ann... iinn... ff... nnyin... Narrator: [Voice over] With a gun barrel between your teeth, you speak only in vowels. [Tyler removes the gun from the Narrator's mouth] Narrator: I can't think of anything. Narrator: [Voice over] For a second I totally forgot about Tyler's whole controlled demolition thing and I wonder how clean that gun is.

Practical AP
by Major Variola (ret) 24 May '05

24 May '05

>>Declan, tonight I dined with a major spam fighter and he said he had direct confirmation of the fact that the vast bulk of spam is sent by a small number of parties, perhaps 200 at most, and the bulk of that by a core group of about 20.<< This from Politech. The author goes on to suggest legal action against the 200. Of course, this is fascist, counter to the US's first amendment. A far more moral solution is to fund AP against the spammers, including some due diligence to assure that the future corpses are in fact the ones desired. Consider a penny per spam per person. Consider only a thousandth cooperation-rate by spammees. Bush (et al)'s bounty on Osama et al. would pale in comparison --and actually be acted on, instead of it being a badge of honor for the targeted. -------- That was a *live* one, George.
