Antivirus software will ignore FBI spyware: solutions
by Tim May 02 Dec '01

02 Dec '01

Some interesting tips (bottome of this message) for detecting FBI/SS snoopware that NAI/McAfee is now assisting the FBI in installing. I especially like the idea of "type hundreds of random key strokes and see which files increase in size." (Or just look for any file size changes, as most of us type tens of thousands of keystrokes per day.) The mathematical side of most encryption is vastly stronger than the "crypto hygiene" side. There's a reason "code rooms" and "crypto shacks" on military ships and bases have lots of hoops to jump through, with locked boxes, double-keyed switches, controlled access, etc. Most users of PGP take no steps to secure key materials. (I plead guilty, too.) Most of us are used to immediate access, and we want crypto integrated with our mail. The notion of going to a locked safe, taking out the laptop or removable hard drive, ensuring an "air gap" between the decoding system and the Net, and checking for keyloggers and hostile code, and so on, is foreign to most of us. The "dongle" idea (e.g., Dallas Semiconductor buttons, etc.) has been around for a long time. Here's a new twist: the Apple iPod music player. I just got one. A 4.6 GB hard disk (Toshiba 1.8"). Hooks up via Firewire/IEEE 1394, with the link recharging the battery and auto-linking. The disk can also be mounted as a standard Firewire disk. Meaning, it could be used to store key material and even be used for PGP scratch operations. The increased security comes from its small size (easy to lock up) and because I usually have it with me when I am away from home. This makes "sneak and peek" searches and plants of malicious code less useful. Not a complete solution. Crypto hygiene and all.

"May's handlers are panicking." In spite of alpha baboons best efforts to lead c/punk revolution up racist and capitalist cul de sacs. Subject: capitalism in america Anyone who reads this book should recognize Alan Greenspan, Phil Gramm, Milton Friedman, and David Horowitz for the lying charlatans they are. Anyone who reads this book should realize the Democrat party is as much the party of the propertied class as the Republican party. And anyone who thinks the there is any worthiness to capitalism as an economic system, or who believes the propertied class is not waging unremitting class war against eveyone else should consider the words, not of Karl Marx, but of Abraham Lincoln: "These capitalists act harmoniously and in concert to fleece the people." Malthus, Ricardo, Adam Smith--to see they fully understood what they were creating. They knew capitalism would be a tremendously productive economic system; but, as they followed the logic of the economic principles they were developing and articulating, they also realized it was a system which eventually reduces virtually the entire population of capitalist societies to starvation while all the wealth becomes vested in the hands of an ever shrinking elite. As they themselves predicted, capitalism is an economic system which ultimately destroys itself and takes everyone with it. It, quite literally, is the Titanic of economic systems; and its advocates preach it is unsinkable. Because the version of capitalism practiced in most European nations is not as pure, not as true to the principles of capitalist ideology as in the U.S., the inherently destructive consequences of the ideology are not as pronounced and as profound as in the U.S. The European nations may be "behind" us, but what is happening here will happen to them; it is inherent in the logic of capitalist ideology. Tims opinions of jews are well documented.So long mate,Its been real.

Subject: The P2P surveillance society approaches... http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~kostas/omni.html "The Page of Omnidirectional Vision" Bunch o'links to commercial and research work on omnidirectional vision systems, including novel cameras and software to stitch the images together. The FlyCam work at FujiXerox Palo Alto Labs (FXPal) is particularly interesting, since it is comparatively low cost, done mostly with off-the-shelf hardware. http://www.fxpal.com/smartspaces/flycam/flycam_home.htm Those of you who know about the Aspen Movie Map, a virtual reality tour of Aspen, Colorado performed in 1979 <http://www.artmuseum.net/w2vr/timeline/Naimark.html> will find the FlyAbout work to be familiar: http://www.fxpal.com/smartspaces/FlyAbout/index.htm The big difference is that now this capability is possible using standard, stock equipment. Oh, and having GPS around is a big help too. How do we make the surveillance society <http://ptclub.com/Endofprivacy.html> from these pieces? Miniaturize the cameras and associated electronics, and have a large number of people wear one. So far, just like in David Brin's novel "Earth" <http://www.metroactive.com/papers/metro/02.06.97/cover/brin1-9706.html>. Everyone records omnidirectional images of their surroundings, and records the positions they were in. Now, combine this with Peer-to-Peer technology. Allow everyone to search everyone else's image banks, based on geographic information. This require shifting existing P2P technology from a music-based metadata schema to one that is geospatially based. The schemas already exist: <http://www.state.wi.us/agencies/wlib/sco/metatool/mtools.htm>. Key factors keeping us from the surveillance society: * the cameras are too heavy, and too expensive * disk space is still too expensive (for compact, portable memory) * wireless transmission rates are still too slow * wireless access is not yet ubiquitous But, I think you'll agree that none of these are fundamental limitations (i.e., fixing these does not require breaking physical laws). When will we start seeing the start of the peer-to-peer surveillance society? I give it 10 years, maybe less. - Jim

I got the invite as well. It LOOKS like they might be adding a little of the OLD Freedom back in. Anyone know if it's more than one proxy server, and if ZKS is going to control it/them? I haven't uninstalled freedom 3.0, but I haven't used Freedom at all since they pulled the tunneling.
