Hi everybody Heh! This one's good for a laugh :-)) http://www.odci.gov/cia Seems the DOJ hack was a good inspiration. Heh! Life's good when you're willing to work at it. Later Mike ____________________________________________________________________ I'm sure we will find out in a few years that Microsoft invented the Net. Or brought it to the masses. Or saved it from a certain and early demise. Or all of the above. JAMES SEYMOUR

By definition, without a citizen-unit health card number, a Health Status Transition Event can't be recorded, therefore nothing will happen. It's possible that some auditor may notice a short-term increase in the amount of hazardous medical waste disposal at the facility that can't be properly allocated to health-services-consumption-units for cost recovery purposes, but there are overhead accounts for such things, which are simpler than creating fictitious accounts for "un-persons" or some such. # Thanks; Bill # Bill Stewart, +1-415-442-2215 stewarts(a)ix.netcom.com # <A HREF="http://idiom.com/~wcs"> # You can get PGP software outside the US at ftp.ox.ac.uk/pub/crypto

DL in exchange for fingerprint
by Jeff Barber 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Oh joy. You no longer need to be arrested to get fingerprinted in Georgia. On the front page of Wednesday's Atlanta Journal, under the headline "Now you can get driver's license in minutes": The average 45-day wait to get a new driver's license in Georgia will be a thing of the past under a new system that will churn them out while customers wait. "From start to finish it takes about 10 minutes," said chief examiner ... in charge of the Georgia State Patrol's driver's license office in Milledgeville where the system went into effect on Tuesday. Previously, drivers received a temporary paper license that was good for 45 days. ... ... Officials at the Department of Public Safety plan to have the new computer system in 82 locations across the state by Oct. 1. Georgia is the 32nd state with the system. After an eye exam, the applicant presses a finger down on a pad that registers the fingerprint in a state-wide memory bank. Then, the examiner confirms the name, address, and identifying information. ... The licenses have a hologram of the word "Georgia" behind the driver's name, age and address, and a bar code on the back that contains a laser recording of the driver's index fingerprints. "We keep a memory bank that matches your fingerprints with your license," [DoPS spokesman] said. "In other words, if you went to get a new license with a false birth certificate and your fingerprint didn't match the name, you wouldn't get a license. And you could also face possible investigation for fraud from the Public Safety's investigative division." ... "I think it's wonderful," said Katherine Kidd, the first Milledgeville driver to get the instant license. "It's a great idea. Now we don't have to wait forever." [ End quote ] Just what I would have called it: a great idea. Is it true that 31 other states take your fingerprint as part of the license application? I feel sick. -- Jeff

9-19-96. NYP: "New Method of Internet Sabotage Is Spreading." Markoff. Sabotage reported by Panix is spreading and has now occurred at least a dozen other World Wide Web sites around the nation. Officials concede that there is no easy defense against the attack. One said. "I think this is sick, but I guess that is what these guys do." "Regulators Turn Spotlight on Cybermoney." As concerns grow about electronic money laundering, cybercounterfeiting and bank runs on the Internet, regulators around the world are scurrying to catch up with the rapid development of electronic money. The US plans to announce today two initiatives intended to grapple with the new technology, and in another move, G-7 will examine the international cooperation needed as money moves through the borderless world of the Internet. ----- http://jya.com/sabtag.txt (14 kb for 2) SAB_tag ---------- Pipeline is sluggish due to transition to Mindspring operation.

"Drivers Must Allow Fingerprinting" By Ralph Ellis _The Atlanta Constitution_ 9/19/96 "Georgians renewing or getting a new driver's license after Sept. 30 will have to provide the state with two fingerprints. "The right and left index fingerprints will be taken with an inkless scanning device that is part of a digital imaging system being installed in 82 driver's license examination offices across the state said Gordy Wright, spokesman for the Georgia Department of Public Safety. SNIP "The fingerprints will make it difficult for people to obtain licenses with falsified identification papers, Wright said. "Teresa Nelson of the Ga. Civil Liberties Union said the fingerprinting invades the privacy of law-abiding citizens. "'I have grave concerns,' she said. 'When we think of giving a fingerprint, we think of being arrested. We feel like we've done something wrong, not because we are complying with the law and are doing something right.' "There will be no exceptions to the fingerprint requirement..., Wright said, adding that 'having a driver's license is a privilege,' not a right. SNIP "Wright said...the fingerprints eventually will be available to other law enforcement agencies and courts.... SNIP "The new licenses will include an instant photo....A bar code on the back will contain a laser recording of the driver's index fingerprints...."

Stego inside encryption
by Mullen Patrick 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

I know a lot of times the idea behind steganography is to hide the fact that a secret message is in a seemingly normal file/mail/whatever. This is good for avoiding unwanted interest in your file. The benefit of not having people attempt to crack you code, added to the strength of the cryptosystem is wonderful. However, I propose this-- Don't hide that anything's encrypted! Rather than hide this fact, throw it in their face! I propose hiding an encrypted message inside another encrypted message. Set bits in specific places to data in the real message. The benefit is Oscar not only doesn't know what the crypto is, he attacks the wrong message. Hiding statistically random bits from the true message in statistically random bits from the masking message shouldn't be too hard. Granted, this scheme doesn't get you past measures designed to keep out all encrypted messages, and it surely wouldn't keep you message from generating interest, but it would be very hard to decrypt the message, especially when some algorithm is used which (seemingly) randomly selects which bits to use for the stego. Just a thought... My apologies if someone has already proposed this method. Patrick
