CDR: 'Shoot to Kill Bill' set to pass the Senate with no safeguards
by Julian Assange 07 Sep '00

07 Sep '00

Tuesday, 5 September 2000 New ALP Sell-Out Completes Capitulation on Defence Amendment Bill 'Shoot to Kill Bill' set to pass the Senate with no safeguards The ALP today completed its capitulation to the Government by accepting new Government amendments to Defence Legislation Amendment (Aid to Civilian Authorities) Bill, Greens Senator Bob Brown said today. "The ALP has refused to accept Greens amendments that would guarantee troops could never be called out against a peaceful protest or industrial dispute," Senator Brown said. "On top of that they have watered down their already weak amendments. Previously the ALP amendment had said that once called out the troops could not be used unless there was 'a direct and immediate threat of death or serious injury'. These words have been replaced by "reasonable likelihood of death or serious injury". "Now, in a stunning overnight turnaround, the ALP has accepted a new government amendment that would allow troops to be used against civilians when there is 'serious damage to property'. This gives the government and military free reign to call out the troops because in almost every situation 'serious damage to property' could be envisaged. "This is a backflip on sell-out on back-down. Labor has failed to defend a century of law and convention in Australia which has prevented the Defence forces from being involved in armed conflict with civilians. "The bill will now pass into law with no sunset clause, and no real safeguard that would prevent troops being used on strikers and peaceful protestors Further information: Ben Oquist 02 62773170 or 0419704095 ---------------------------------------------- Ben Oquist Australian Greens Senator Bob Brown Parliament House, Canberra 2600 Australia +61 2 62773170 ph +61 2 62773185 fx 0419704095 mobile http://www.greens.org.au/bobbrown

CDR: Permutations in DES
by Augusto Jun Devegili 06 Sep '00

06 Sep '00

Hi all, I was just wondering... In DES, there's an Initial Permutation (IP) on the plaintext, then 16 rounds, and then the inverse permutation (IP^-1) of the result to produce the ciphertext. How effective are these permutations? Do they really add diffusion to the algorithm, considering that they don't depend on the key? Someone told me that they are necessary to provide reversibility to DES. Is this correct? Thanks in advance, Best Regards, Devegili

SF Bay Area Cypherpunks September 2000 Physical Meeting Announcement General Info: DATE: Saturday Sept 11 2000 TIME: 12:00 - 6:00 PM (Pacific Time) PLACE: Eric Messick's Dome, Santa Cruz Mountains Agenda This is a low-key meeting at Eric's home in the mountains, beginning about 1pm. ~12 -Bring lunch, undo geographical delocalization, admire mountain roads and wildlife. Carpooling would be a good idea, given limited parking. ~1 - Admire the E-Dome, Hugh's Lab and the Copper-Insulated Wall, socialize, discuss Burning Man, Plan RSA Patent-expiration party ** - Eric Blossom's Starium Bump-in-the-wire Cryptophone demo - They're finally here, 3DES and everything. ** - Bill Scannell's trip to Ascension Island - An alternate landing site for the space shuttle, Ascension island is forbidden turf, occupied by NASA, NSA, and several other American spook agencies. ** - Hugh Daniel - IPSEC and FreeS/WAN update and demo. As usual, this is an open public meeting on US soil. Please leave the US soil outside :-) RSA has released the RSA patent to the public domain two weeks early, so bring code! There will still be a party around 9/20-9/23. Whit Diffie and Dave Del Torto will speak at an EFF meeting Mon 9/11 7:30pm at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco Airport in Burlingame. Details http://www.eff.org/EFF/BayFF/ will be posted soon. Location Most of the online maps provide unreliable directions, so use the attached. I find the drive takes about 30 minutes from Mountain View or 15-20 from the 280/17 intersection except during heavy traffic; parking is country roads and dirt driveways.

DoS attacks before internet worked for Catalonians: http://www.zolatimes.com/V4.36/the_day.html Internet does give some advantage: Sync message goes out with the time (www, usenet, maillists). Action takes place in the meatspace (we flush toilets and turn on hemp lights at the right moments.) There is NO WAY to trace this back to the distributed agents - that is, unless your neighbour reports unusual light activity :-) Something similar happened some 7-8 yrs back in the Bay Area where drivers (on 101, I think) did 55mph in sync in all lanes, creating chaos. We are far too stuck to internet as communication medium. Flushing the shit can also deliver the message,
