I've just posted a new and improved description of my voluntary payment protocol: Tipster technical overview http://tipster.weblogs.com/stories/storyReader$180 Comments are welcome. Also, check out the front page which, if I do say so myself, is becoming a pretty good chronicle of music business greed and the search for better ways... http://tipster.weblogs.com/ -Jeff -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |Jeff Kandt | Voluntary Payments: A Napster-friendly business | |jeff(a)scrollbar.com | model for musicians. http://tipster.weblogs.com | |[PGP Pub key: http://pgp.ai.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x6CE51904 | | or send a message with the subject "send pgp key"] | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "dcsb-request(a)reservoir.com" with one line of text: "help". --- end forwarded text -- ----------------- R.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- That sounds like censorship to me. Way to restrictive, kinda like COPPA aka Children Loose their Right to Free Speech Online (CLRFSO), a voilation of the first ammendment and of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

CDR: RECYCLED CPUNKS MESSAGES APPEARING FROM INFONEX
by Bill Stewart 13 Sep '00

I'm starting to see a number of old cypherpunks messages reappearing from sirius.infonex.com (sirius.infonex.com [216.34.245.2]). I'm not sure if they're going to everybody on cypherpunks (unlikely), or everybody who uses the cyberpass.net majordomo, or if it's just infonex clearing out undelivered stuff to my ISP. Either way, if you start seeing topics that we covered a week or two ago, maybe it's because of mail problems, so check the date. Thanks!

CDR: VISA to smartcard the US
by A. Melon 13 Sep '00

Sep 12, 2000 - 07:27 PM Visa USA to Launch Smart Card in the U.S. The Associated Press NEW YORK (AP) - After success with its smart card in Europe and Japan, Visa is aiming squarely at the U.S. market with an upgraded version that contains more memory. Over the next couple of weeks, Visa USA, the companys U.S. division, will be launching smart cards - microprocessors embedded in plastic -that will offer prepackaged services to be determined by its issuers. Customers will be able to download information from their computers via special card readers. Over the next year or so, they will be able to store airline tickets, for example, and eventually use the cards as keys to their cars and homes. The card, which has 32 kilobytes of memory, is different from Visas original version, which has mainly served as a "monetary value card," said Al Banisch, senior vice president of consumer credit products. The new card will be available free to Visas 350 million cardholders.
