Please direct to owner of http://cypherpunks.venona.com/date/1997/11/msg01955.html Greetings, I have not heard back from you. I sent you an email on November 14th and have received no response. I am interested in advertising on your site. Below you'll see that I've attached my original email explaining how I think we can both benefit from doing business together. Please let me know if you are interested or not. More information on what I am proposing can be found at http://www.activexamerica.com/partner/ -or- you can read below for further information. Thanks, J.R. Rogers President Activex America, Inc. info(a)activexamerica.com (941) 778 2155 ************ I have visited your website, http://cypherpunks.venona.com/date/1997/11/msg01955.html, and see that you have information on Cetyl-Myristoleate. Just so you know, I found you in the top listings of AltaVista. My name is Ryan Allis and I am the Vice President of Marketing for Activex America, Inc. Activex America, Inc. manufactures, wholesales, and retails Syn-flex and Syn-flex for your pet, a high-quality liquid Glucosamine and Chondroitin arthritis treatment that stops inflammation, ends joint pain fast, rebuilds damaged cartilage, and halts the progression of Osteoarthritis in both humans and pets without any of the side effects and dangers associated with COX-2 inhibitors, NSAIDS, and surgery. I would like to propose a partnership between your website and Activex America. Essentially, we would pay you a fee for linking to our website (on a monthly basis). I have set up a site with full information at http://www.activexamerica.com/partner/ -or- you can read on to learn more. Syn-flex is formulated with Pharmaceutical Grade Liquid Glucosamine Sulfate and HCL, Chondroitin, Boswellin, Shark Cartilage, Yucca powder, Ascorbate, Manganese, Bromelaine, Vitamins A, C, E, Omega 3 and Omega 6. In the past two years of testing, our customers have had tremendous results. It not only ends Arthritis pain fast, but goes to straight to work fighting the disease and rebuilding the damaged cartilage. We attribute this success to the very high-grade glucosamine and the unique combination of the eleven other ingredients that are present. We are confident Syn-flex is superior to any Glucosamine product on the market. We are now launching Syn-flex to the worldwide market. To spread the word, we have an affiliate program in place that pays commission to those who lead visitors to our site. Because of the fact you already have visitors going to your site to learn about treating their arthritis, I wanted to extend to you the ability to become an affiliate partner and have us pay you for linking to us. We will pay you for either promoting Syn-flex through your site or simply recommending our information on Arthritis. While we have a considerable distribution network, our main retail outlet is our website. On the site, Syn-flex is sold for $29.95 and honestly, it is selling so fast we are currently manufacturing 10,000 bottles per week. Even if you sell your own product on your site, Syn-flex could be the perfect "backend" or complimentary product that guarantees steady, additional cash flow for you. You just lead visitors to our site through banners, text links, newsletter articles, signature files etc. and we pay you. You make the money when the visitor from your site purchases Syn-flex or Syn-flex for your pets (1:33 visitor/sale conversion). Our advanced affiliate software keeps track of all commissions you are due. Even if a customer does not buy for another week, month, or year you still receive credit for each and every purchase online, by phone, by fax, or by mail. We pay you $6.00 for each bottle purchased. Important: Since Syn-flex is purchased monthly you receive recurring payments every month (not just once) from each customer (9 out of 10 of our customers who buy once, buy again and again). By only sending us three or four visitors a day by the end of a year, on average, we will be sending you a $252 check each month. Send us 20 visitors per day and after one year we'll, on average, send you a check for $1400 each month (which continues to grow). It takes three minutes to sign up and five to place a link on your site. Once this is done you do not have to do another thing and on the first of each month we will mail you a check (of course you could do a little promoting like writing a recommendation or an article in a newsletter if you really want sales to skyrocket). All the tracking is done by our software. Once a partner, you can check to see how you are doing any time you like by visiting our special Affiliate Resource Center. There you just enter your username and password and you'll be given instant access to your personal sales and visitor statistics. You'll know exactly how many people have visited our web site from yours and you'll see an up to the minute record of your sales. I don't want to take up your time by explaining all of the details in a really long email. You can check out all the details at http://www.activexamerica.com/partner/ -or- you can sign up right away at http://www.activexamerica.com/partner/signup.html These web pages will explain everything. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. This is a perfect opportunity for your company and ours to increase profits with very little work. I look forward to hearing from you. And if you still have any questions after you have visited the website explaining everything, please feel free to email me or call me directly at (941) 778-2155. All the Best, Ryan Allis VP Marketing Activex America, Inc. http://www.activexamerica.com partner(a)activexamerica.com (941) 778-2155 P.S: We also have a great wholesale program. Syn-flex is a very profitable additional to any product line. Email us at resell(a)activexamerica.com for details. P.P.S. Just take five minutes to sign up and put a link on your site and if at the end of one month you aren't happy with the amount on your check just take the link down. There is really nothing to lose.

Supposing you and others were willing to pay Nomen a modest sum for this service, how could you do so using Paypal or Amazon, and allow him to retain his anonymity? An alternative solution is barter. Nomen could agree to search certain years of archives, or certain topics, in exchange for other people working on other parts of the project, for example. Information barter can be performed while retaining anonymity. Maybe systems to facilitate barter could be developed if anonymous cash remains out of reach.

cryptoanarchy

How to get there from here.Is this the long dark night of the cypherpunks soul? I would argue that its the cliche darkests hour before the dawn.The alphabet police soup are on us like a cheap suit,the list becomes the prototype of the entire web. things look bloody bleak,Ill grant you that.Yet put yourself in their shoes for a sec,we are a bit like a motley bunch of global justice seekers that take over cities and scorn borders,advancing in diversity, we strike in unison. The logic and morality of the state is letting them down,dictatorships so much easier.Where does all the repression and money in the world lead them though? They cant catch every cypherpunk and run down every anarchist.What if we were to start using barter? I do some work for you and accept 10 kudos instead of dollars,our contract calls for stiff defence of all attempts to tax the 'kudo'.Does the 'sweet spot' lie in the rush to provide the state with the means to torture,imprison and enslave? Or withdraw from the powder tainted means of exchange thats turning this place into venus.Paper money should share the same fate as repression,cypherpunks can mark the trail to the promised land,you know theres no other way. Viva HAWALA!

Its the asymmetry, again.

Reinsch, Under Secretary of Commerce for the Bureau of Export Administration, said while being grilled about whether terrorists and criminals would be naove enough to use the technology being pushed by the Administration.

Well, if google controls usenet history, why wouldn't a violence monopoly control logs and the history of the lands it ... controls ? (for all practical purposes the government is a corporation with a very effective PR department and pesuasive means, which it uses to successfuly convince customers that it works for them, that it is even controlled by them. And as we know, branding ... er patriotism ... works) Back to archives. One of the solutions was described in Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451: memorize the stuff. It's much easier with computers these days. Download and backup the information YOU deem valuable. It's your fucking choice, don't expect others to do it. It is trivially easy, maybe as easy as whining about bookburning. Look at JYA - all he does is memorize, memorize. Archiving is a valuable service. The Unsolved Problem The most serious problem is getting out of the reach ("juristiction") of a particular Violence, Inc. franchise. Not just storage-wise, but access-wise. Even if I rent a server in Tripoli, the access to it goes through wires controlled by my local ViolCo. It is not filtering out Tripoli now, but I have no doubt that it will should the need arise. You can hide bits by encryption, but you (still) can't hide wires. unrelated - did you notice that "for the children" meme is almost gone and replaced with "against the terrorism" ?
