This has been done before. A town in Georgia, one in Ohio or Illinois, as I recall. t is just as unconstitutional to _require_ a gun as it is to _ban_ guns. The crap about "conscientious objector" is just that, crap. I shouldn't have to fill out some bullshit form to say I have conscientious objections to having a gun in my house. Government may no more require a gun in a house than it may require a television, or a telephone, or a toothbrush. Yes, I know the law is pure fluff, and hence is moot, a nullity, as they say. But the principle of _requiring_ a gun is just as foolish as the notion of banning guns. Frankly, those who pass such laws need killing just as much as the tens of thousands who are banning guns need killing. --Tim May -- ---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---- Timothy C.

Hi, Bob maybe you find it interesting and/or worth posting 8) Victor. December 7 Russian "Airspace Technology" corporation announced starting of $10mln investment in PayCash payment system. PayCash is a Russian project, developing David Chaum "digital cash" payment technology. PayCash owns 3 patents on technologies used in system and has offices around exUSSR (www.paycash.ru) and in Boston (www.cyphermint.com) Airspace Technology corporation was founded in November, 1998 by Resolution of Government of Russian Federation Federal Program of Restructurisation and Conversion of Defense Industry. Corporation includes 24 enterprises, which are the largest producers and creators of aircraft instruments and systems for aircraft industry. Corporation considers Paycash as a possibility to enter new market and its plans are considerably wider than only financial support of the project.

I think that if you are uncomfortable with taking direct action to liberate scientific knowledge, you can still be a valuable participant in this broader movement, using tactics and strategies like the one you've described. However, I feel that it's wrong to condemn those who are willing to take those risks, and betray whatever institutions give them privilege. If we want any movement to grow, we need to be ready to accept a diverse range of tactics from comrades that we may or may not agree with on questions of specific actions, but that we must support writ large, since they are fighting the same battle we are, and we would ask the same of them. So to conclude: you've presented a good idea, and I will support you if you are persecuted for using it, as long as you recognize that those who publish things as the open access guerilla cookbook are trying to achieve the same goals as you, and you support their work towards those ends.

[Politech] MIT student picking up friend at airport nearly shot, charged with "infernal machine" crime [fs]
by Declan McCullagh 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

An MIT student named Star Simpson was apparently picking up a friend at Boston Logan airport and wore a sweatshirt with a breadboard and some LEDs and a 9V battery. She had created it for a student career day. Big mistake. She was nearly killed by police (armed with semiautomatic weapons that some jurisdictions prevent law-abiding Americans from owning) who surrounded her. State Police Maj. Scott Pare actually told the press that she was "extremely lucky she followed the instructions or deadly force would have been used... She's lucky to be in a cell as opposed to the morgue." Star was charged with violating the state's hoax device/infernal machine law, which shows you just how officious -- and perhaps even crazed -- police and prosecutors are nowadays. That law provides up to five years in prison. As I wrote back in February after the Aqua Teen Hunger Force incident, for prosecutors to win their case, they must prove that (1) Star transported the LED-sweatshirt (2) "with the intent to cause anxiety, unrest, fear or personal discomfort." (3) Also, a person must "reasonably" believe that the LED-sweatshirt was (4) a "device for endangering life or doing unusual damage to property, or both, by fire or explosion." See: http://politechbot.com/docs/massachusetts.infernal.hoax.device.020107.txt Obviously the state will lose this case, but filing charges is more politically convenient than admitting the cops made an error, or at the very least admitting that the student was just wearing a harmless sweatshirt.

[p2p-hackers] how do I tell these Chinese people "You're doing it wrong!" ?
by Zooko O'Whielacronx 06 Jul '18

Dear people of p2p-hackers, tahoe-dev, and liberationtech: I think I confused the issue when I said in [1] "some people in China might be relying on using the Tahoe-LAFS public demo over unencrypted HTTP and thinking that it provides security properties like they would get if they ran their own copy of Tahoe-LAFS locally". Encryption of the HTTP connection isn't very important, so it was confusing when I mentioned "over unencrypted HTTP". I should have just said "some people in China might be relying on using the Tahoe-LAFS public demo and thinking that it provides security properties like they would get if they ran their own copy of Tahoe-LAFS locally". Look at this diagram: http://tahoe-lafs.org/source/tahoe-lafs/trunk/docs/about.html Using an unencrypted connection (HTTP or FTP) between the Tahoe-LAFS client and the Tahoe-LAFS gateway means that the link between those two objects on the diagram is red, meaning that you are vulnerable to anyone who controls that link. If you instead used an encrypted connection (HTTPS or SFTP) between those two objects then that link would be black, meaning that you are not vulnerable to someone just because they control that link. But you are still vulnerable to whoever controls the Tahoe-LAFS gateway which the link goes to! The right way to do it is to run the Tahoe-LAFS gateway yourself on a computer that you control. The Tahoe-LAFS gateway object is red on that diagram, meaning that you rely on it for your security, which is why you should run it on a computer that you control. You could run it on the same laptop or desktop that you are running your web browser (which is acting as the Tahoe-LAFS client), in which case it doesn't matter whether you use HTTP or HTTPS because the connection is only running over the loopback interface anyway. Or you could run it on some other computer that you control, in which case you need to use HTTPS so that you aren't vulnerable to anyone who controls the link between your local computer running your web browser on and your remote computer running your Tahoe-LAFS gateway. So, how do we explain to these Chinese users (and everyone else) that if they want good security, they must run a Tahoe-LAFS gateway (which is a web server) on a computer they control? Perhaps it would help to draw one variant of this diagram showing a user using a gateway on a remote server and being vulnerable to the people who control that server (which may include more people than the server's legal owner thinks), and another picture showing a user using a gateway on his local machine and being safe against the threat of the server operator betraying him. Does anyone have design skills (and Chinese!) and could try to explain this? Here is the source code for the current version of the diagram: http://tahoe-lafs.org/source/tahoe-lafs/trunk/docs/network-and-reliance-top… Regards, Zooko [1] http://lists.zooko.com/pipermail/p2p-hackers/2010-November/002551.html _______________________________________________ p2p-hackers mailing list p2p-hackers(a)lists.zooko.com http://lists.zooko.com/mailman/listinfo/p2p-hackers ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org">leitl</a> http://leitl.org ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07100, 11.36820 http://www.ativel.com http://postbiota.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE

Update on the INDUCE Act (now renamed the "IICA")
by Richard Forno 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

Two updates to last week's note on the so-called INDUCE ACT to stiffen copyright enforcement activities. I will also note that the bill title has been changed to something a bit more rational than its prior proposed title -- it's now known as the "Inducing Infringement of Copyrights Act (IICA)." I wonder if the OS vendors will be considered as inducing infringement by allowing their systems to connect to the internet. Or how about for providing protocols such as ftp, scp, smtp, etc. that facilitate P2P sharing? Are the inmates running the asylum? No, wait -- don?t answer that. - rick Infowarrior.org UPDATE (1): Some quick thoughts on the revised bill and its broader goals TechLaw Advisor Susan Crawford also reports that "counsels" - an overly abusive term used here - has been dropped from the bill. Unfortunately there is no copy of the bill available at the moment. Susan also hears that the bill is fast-tracked to the Senate floor after a quick hearing either Thursday or Friday of this week. Susan's tech-law blog is located at: http://techlawadvisor.com/blog/ 2004_06_13_archive.html#108744622389089703 Susan also links to a discussion document at the Senate Judiciary Committee's website that shows the desire to make P2P equated as software that's illegal, illicit, immoral, etc. The Senate document is found at: http://judiciary.senate.gov/special/content_protection.pdf UPDATE (2): More in-depth information from News.Com Senate bill bans P2P networks By Declan McCullagh The Inducing Infringement of Copyrights Act, which was made public Wednesday, represents the latest legislative attempt by large copyright holders to address what they see as the growing threat of peer-to-peer networks rife with pirated music, movies and software. Violations of the IICA would be punished with civil fines and, in some circumstances, lengthy prison terms. < snip > The IICA is designed to overturn an April 2003 ruling from a federal judge in Los Angeles that said file-swapping services StreamCast Networks and Grokster were legal to operate. In that decision, which the entertainment industry has appealed to the 9th Circuit, U.S. District Judge Stephen Wilson wrote that "Grokster and (Morpheus operator) StreamCast are not significantly different from companies that sell home video recorders or copy machines, both of which can be and are used to infringe copyrights." Wilson said those networks were not as centralized as Napster, which the 9th Circuit declared to be illegal in 2001, and could continue to exist. < snip> http://news.com.com/Senate%20bill%20bans%20P2P%20networks/2100-1027_3 -524479 6.html?tag=techdirt ------------------------------------- You are subscribed as eugen(a)leitl.org To manage your subscription, go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/?listname=ip Archives at: http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/interesting-people/ ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org">leitl</a> ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07078, 11.61144 http://www.leitl.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE http://moleculardevices.org http://nanomachines.net [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/pgp-signature]
