PGP 2.6 for UNIX
by dwomack＠runner.utsa.edu 17 Dec '03

I've been having difficulty compiling PGP 2.6 for UNIX V, Release 4.0. There *_were_* some compiled executables out there for 2.3, but I've failed to find the same for the 2.6 version. Any ideas? Thanks! Dave

*credit info

*CREDIT CARD INFO " Among other faults, being disarmed causes you to be despised." - close quote of Machiavelli. According to Chariman Mao "Political Power grows out of the barrel of a gun." In which case wouldn't a democracy be made by widely distributed, numerous, individual owned, Non-confiscable weapons, & other "democracies" would be mere frauds? In Missouri, in order to get your driver's license, you MUST supply your SSN. They have signs that say that since driving is a "privilege", not a right, it is ok to require the SSN. I understand that this practice is spreading to other states as well & is being pushed sy- stematically by the feds. Funny, when they 1st started out social security, they promised that the SSN would never be used for purposes other than social security. Then again, when they first started out the federal income tax they promised that it would only be on the rich & would never be more than a few %. Don't they also promise that the National census would only be used for statistical purposes, Yet I believe that it has been used to track down "dead beat dads" among other things. I'm not clear on that. Will walking be our next "privilege"? I've never seen it expressed legally as a right. OTHER LAW DEVELOPMENTS On the CRUSADERS news program on tv last night, they reported that a Ca. city, I believe Palo Alto, has been enforcing traffic law, such as revoked licenses & drunk driving, by taking the drivers' cars. They brag that the program pays for itself. They think that it is a bright innovation & are promoted it for other jurisdictions as well. Very clever, stealing peoples' property to enforce law. Reminds me when the law 1st started doing "sting" operations & bragged that they were terribly clever - participating in crime to catch criminals. The criticism of entrapment now has mostly been forgotten. STALKING LAWS By the way, these current stalking laws - whats up? The utility of a stalking law is so obvious, that in the U.S.'es 200 + year history they could not possibly be overlooked. Therefore, their faults must be being purposely overlooked. Media conspiracy? population stupidity? both? No debate - strange. Yours Truly, Gary Jeffers

Hi bruce, Hows it going? I'm back from DK and the UK. I understand you're just coming back from JP (wow what world travelers we are!). have you heard from Sutherland? Do we have a title? page length? It seems to me that we should take out some of the clipper stuff and put in more on CKE since thats pretty hopt at the moment and will further distinguish us from Hoffman's book. We have also moved upto 56kb FR here in the office. Are you still interested in a home page here? Or do you have one we can link to?

Let's assume that ESMTP will anonymize and sanitize each message, making it appear as if it first appeared on the site. In other words, lets say I send a message via ESMTP to someone. It gets sanitized and anonymized (the return address is encrypted). This removes ALL traces of the fact that it left from my node. Every site up the chain until it gets to you will do the same. Finally you get a VERY anon/sanitized message. I said the return address is encrypted. That's true: it's encrypted piece-meal. What happens is that the originator's site the sender's name with its own key. Then, it encrypts its site name with the next site's key. When it's sent, the site encrypts it's name, PLUS the previous encrypted packet with the key of the next site up the net. This happens until it reaches its destination. Even if the packet is intercepted, the hacker only knows the previous site it came from. Let's say he intercepts it between my feed and my feed's feed. This gives some 15+ choices as to which MACHINE it came from, let alone which USER sent it, and that's only on the first hop. On the Nth hop, it's AT LEAST 2^N possible MACHINES, assuming that each hop has at least two feeds. More realistically, after about 4 hops, the number of choices becomes entirely too large to efficiently track. What do you think? > Second, if each machine simply saves a message and sends it on, then even > if the messages are encrypted there will probably be timing relationships > between the incoming and outgoing messages which will allow them to be > linked. Quite true. However, if the encryption system adds random-x bytes of entropy to _each message_, the message sizes will never be the same coming in as going out. It will always be larger, but each additional hop makes the chance of tracking less and less. How many hackers can watch the whole backbone?? > So someone monitoring the intersite communication channels may be > able to track a message through the network just by noticing when it comes > into and goes out of each node. This is why Chaum introduces message > batching and mixing at each node. Very true. But, again, it shouldn't matter... By the time it gets to a place where the message is passed through 3 or 4 machines that one person can watch, it's already been sanitized to the point of obsurdity, no?

Postal Inspection (was Common Carriers...)

I once got a conference announcement from Europe in the mail. Printed on the envelope was a little icon showing a profile of the head of a guy wearing a hat (like a policeman or mailman's hat), and an arrow pointing from about his eye level to a picture of an open envelope. This looked like the original envelope, untouched, and the icon seemed to have been there from the start.
