List of reliable remailers
by Raph Levien 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

I operate a remailer pinging service which collects detailed information about remailer features and reliability. To use it, just finger remailer-list(a)kiwi.cs.berkeley.edu There is also a Web version of the same information, plus lots of interesting links to remailer-related resources, at: http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~raph/remailer-list.html This information is used by premail, a remailer chaining and PGP encrypting client for outgoing mail. For more information, see: http://www.c2.org/~raph/premail.html For the PGP public keys of the remailers, finger pgpkeys(a)kiwi.cs.berkeley.edu This is the current info: REMAILER LIST This is an automatically generated listing of remailers. The first part of the listing shows the remailers along with configuration options and special features for each of the remailers. The second part shows the 12-day history, and average latency and uptime for each remailer. You can also get this list by fingering remailer-list(a)kiwi.cs.berkeley.edu. $remailer{'cyber'} = '<alias(a)alias.cyberpass.net> alpha pgp'; $remailer{"mix"} = "<mixmaster(a)remail.obscura.com> cpunk mix pgp hash latent cut ek ksub reord ?"; $remailer{"replay"} = "<remailer(a)replay.com> cpunk mix pgp hash latent cut post ek"; $remailer{"jam"} = "<remailer(a)cypherpunks.ca> cpunk mix pgp hash middle latent cut ek"; $remailer{"winsock"} = "<winsock(a)rigel.cyberpass.net> cpunk pgp pgponly hash cut ksub reord ?"; $remailer{'nym'} = '<config(a)nym.alias.net> newnym pgp'; $remailer{"squirrel"} = "<mix(a)squirrel.owl.de> cpunk mix pgp pgponly hash latent cut ek"; $remailer{'weasel'} = '<config(a)weasel.owl.de> newnym pgp'; $remailer{"reno"} = "<middleman(a)cyberpass.net> cpunk mix pgp hash middle latent cut ek reord ?"; $remailer{"cracker"} = "<remailer(a)anon.efga.org> cpunk mix remix pgp hash ksub esub latent cut ek reord post"; $remailer{'redneck'} = '<config(a)anon.efga.org> newnym pgp'; $remailer{"bureau42"} = "<remailer(a)bureau42.ml.org> cpunk mix pgp ksub hash latent cut ek"; $remailer{"neva"} = "<remailer(a)neva.org> cpunk pgp pgponly hash cut ksub ?"; $remailer{"lcs"} = "<mix(a)anon.lcs.mit.edu> mix"; $remailer{"medusa"} = "<medusa(a)weasel.owl.de> mix middle" $remailer{"McCain"} = "<mccain(a)notatla.demon.co.uk> mix middle"; $remailer{"valdeez"} = "<valdeez(a)juno.com> cpunk pgp pgponly hash ek"; $remailer{"arrid"} = "<arrid(a)juno.com> cpunk pgp pgponly hash ek"; $remailer{"hera"} = "<goddesshera(a)juno.com> cpunk pgp pgponly hash ek"; $remailer{"htuttle"} = "<h_tuttle(a)rigel.cyberpass.net> cpunk pgp hash latent cut post ek"; catalyst(a)netcom.com is _not_ a remailer. lmccarth(a)ducie.cs.umass.edu is _not_ a remailer. usura(a)replay.com is _not_ a remailer. remailer(a)crynwr.com is _not_ a remailer.

[...] I saw part of this on CSPAN. Yablokov made one point that I felt was interesting. These devices were made during the Cold War period, and it's extremely unlikely that any could have been made since the Soviet Union fell apart. The plutonium cores of thermonuclear devices have a limited shelf life - he claimed 6 years, which jibes with what I've heard from other open sources. Fission products build up in the cores which can poison a chain reaction. Thus all Pu based devices need to have the cores periodically removed and replaced with new ones, while the old ones have to go through a non-trivial reprocessing stage to remove the fission products. Thus, a nuke left on the shelf eventually turns into a dud. The time since the Soviet Union fell (which is the upper limit of the last time these particular 'suitcases' could plausibly have been repacked) is long enough ago that they are now either duds or becoming unreliable (I don't know if the degredation results in gradually decreasing yield, or if one day they simply don't work). Of course, even contaminated Pu in the hands of a terrorist (or a State) is a disquieting notion. Peter Trei trei(a)Process.com

The rumors ARE true
by bob17＠bigfoot.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Hi If you follow business journals you may have heard about a new phone company that has patent pending technology that will revolutionize the the way we communicate. They are using technology that allows us to use our existing phones in a manner similar to the the way we communicate on the internet now. This is causing the long distance rates to tumble to low prices that have been unheard of before this. What's more this new technology will eventually allow us to offer an unlimited usage low flat rate plan as well as being able to have up to 8 phones, computers or fax machines all working off of one phone line at the same time. All this without having to purchase any new phones or equipment. This technology is so advanced that the Richard Marriott family of Marriot Hotels has invested 74 Million Dollars in the company for just a 38% interest in the company. If you would like more information on the service or business opportunity with this new company just send an e-mail to" mailto:bob17@bigfoot.com" with the words"the rumors are true" and I will send you information right away. Sincerely, Bob phone (847) 462-1937 e-mail mailto:bob17@bigfoot.com

Gestapo wants to police the Internet

US Calls for Internet Funds Police By Jane Martinson Financial Times: Friday, October 3, 1997 A US securities regulator called yesterday for international co-operation on policing the sale of cross-border mutual funds on the internet. Douglas Scheidt, assistant director in the investment management division at the Securities and Exchange Commission, said: "Securities regulators around the world should work together to find an approach, and to find it relatively soon to satisfy the needs of everyone concerned." Fund managers, particularly in the US, are increasingly using the internet to market their products to investors around the world. This causes policing problems when potential customers in other countries are not covered by regulatory agreements. Regulations surrounding the cross-border sale of products are still vague. Mr Scheidt outlined his preferred approach to the issue at a meeting of the Federation Europeenne des Fonds et Societes d'Investissement, a body of leading European fund managers, in London yesterday. This approach would insist on the fund management group clearly stating the citizens it is allowed to sell to on its home page. Mr Scheidt suggested simple wording to the effect that only US investors were able to purchase US mutual funds, for example. This "disclaimer" would be combined with a demand on managers to screen out possible purchases from unauthorised countries. Mr Scheidt advocated a "flexible approach" which recognised that fund managers could be misled on the country of potential investors but insisted on proof that they had done everything possible to cut down on sales to citizens in unauthorised countries. A solution could be the use of gateways or passwords making it harder for potential investors to find information about a mutual fund. Mr Scheidt said the main drawback was the cost. He also discounted what he described as the "regulator's dream approach" of insisting on the "facts and circumstances" of every transaction. He felt that one of the most important virtues of these approaches was that they did not require any legal changes to enable the internet to be used as a marketing tool. He said his department was also keen to look at how fund managers marketed their products generally to potential clients on the internet. Changes to products must be sent separately via e-mail or the post. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps

It is fascinating to me that every example you use does not involve decrypting transmitted messages. Yet, that is the feature which is under discussion. The demand for the ability to decrypt encrypted messages in the corporate environment can easily be measured with this test: how many companies have a policy that requires employees to record all outgoing mail? >(6) It must also provide a response to those who would regulate >crypto in the name of public safety. This is a red herring. Nobody has been talking about regulating cryptography as a matter of public safety in a serious way. Why is PGP, Inc. posing non-threats to justify its actions? Probably because its actual, all too obvious, motivations are unpalatable to the cypherpunks and probably to most of its customers and supporters. They are not unpalatable to Big Brother, however. I suggest that in the future we do not meet at the PGP, Inc. headquarters and that we do not treat this company as a trustworthy ally.

We Will Loan You $59,000 And You NEVER Have To Repay Us
by ffn＠omni.net 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

PLEASE EXCUSE THE INTRUSION. BUT, THIS INFORMATION MAY BE OF GREAT INTEREST TO YOU... How would you like to BORROW $59,000 and NEVER have to repay the LOAN? If you answered YES, and who wouldn't, then I would like to invite you to join a very SPECIAL group of people. The FINANCIAL FRIENDS NETWORK. The FINANCIAL FRIENDS NETWORK is an ever expanding international group of GENEROUS and CARING people who WILL automatically receive $59,000 LOANS, that they NEVER have to repay. All of our members are hard working, family-oriented people, with one common goal that unites us all. We are committed to generating income, to provide the neccessities and the comforts for ourselves and our families. Let us show you exactly how our UNIQUE, HONEST and PROFESSIONALLY MANAGED program, automatically LOANS YOU $59,000. HERE'S HOW IT WORKS: Just LOAN 1 existing member $20 (which is your lifetime membership fee) and THAT'S IT!!! WE DO EVERTHING ELSE FOR YOU! ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS JOIN US TO RECEIVE YOUR $59,000 LOAN! IT'S REALLY AMAZING HOW EASY THIS IS AND HOW BEAUTIFULLY IT WORKS! We can assure you that this is a LEGAL and LEGITIMATE offer and complies with US law, title 18, sections 1302 & 1341. After all, who hasn't LOANED a FRIEND money before! And, we don't even expect YOU to repay us. HERE'S HOW TO JOIN: 1) Fill out the membership application at the bottom of this letter. 2) Send us your application along with $20, your lifetime membership fee. AND THAT'S IT, WE'LL DO EVERYTHING ELSE FOR YOU! HOW AND WHEN DO YOU RECEIVE YOUR LOAN: ONLY the member in the #1 position RECEIVES YOUR LOAN/membership fee. (SEE MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION) The FINANCIAL FRIENDS NETWORK will then remove the name of the person in the #1 position and will then add YOUR name and YOUR assigned number to the #5 position. The FINACIAL FRIENDS NETWORK will then enroll new members for you, as we are currently doing for an existing member, right now. Those collected membership fees are then forwarded to YOU, as the member in the #1 position. THE FINANCIAL FRIENDS NETWORK WILL CONTINUOUSLY AND VIGOROUSLY ENROLL NEW MEMBERS UNTIL EACH EXISTING MEMBER HAS "SPONSORED" 5 NEW MEMBERS. BY DOING THIS, NO MEMBER CAN FAIL! THIS SERVICE ALONE IS WORTH MUCH, MUCH MORE THAN THE SMALL $20 LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP FEE! CALCULATION OF LOAN AMOUNT: Position 5: We enroll 5 new members for YOU - 1 X 5 = 5 Position 4: We enroll 5 new members for them - 5 X 5 = 25 Position 3: We enroll 5 new members for them - 25 X 5 = 125 Position 2: We enroll 5 new members for them - 125 X 5 = 600 Position 1: We enroll 5 new members for them - 600 X 5 = 3000 Those 3000 new members LOAN YOU $20 EACH, for a total of $60,000, less a $1000 loan processing fee, retained by FINANCIAL FRIENDS NETWORK. This is how we make a profit and it enables us to continuously increase our membership. THAT'S ALL THERE IS TO IT! When YOUR name reaches the #1 position, usually in 3-4 months, YOU will then start to receive YOUR LOAN. YOUR LOANS will be automatically forwarded to you on the 1st and 15th of each month, until YOU receive YOUR entire $59,000 LOAN.
