We are compiling a list of people who hate to receive junk email. We will send you the list periodically. Please do not even think about adding the REMOVE list to your mass email list.

I disagree with the implications of that last sentence. For as long as I can recall, there has been an ongoing debate in libertarian circles between "minarchists" (those that believe in a minimal government) and "anarchists" (those who believe in no government.) I was once a "minarchist," simply because I couldn't figure out a logical way to totally obsolete government functions. Then, I did, so I became an anarchist. It sounds like you are still a minarchist. Now, I could just say, "go ahead, be that way", but the thing to acknowledge is that there is, at least, a DEBATE on this issue. I didn't deny it back when I was a minarchist; I don't deny it today, as an anarchist. Neither should you. AP is, implicitly I believe, an anarchy-producing system. That is (or at least, may be) a libertarian position, particularly for an anarchist-libertarian. _Minarchists_ may be bothered by it, but that doesn't (necessarily) make it non-libertarian.

How to pick up email addresses from a feedback form??
by Thomas Porter 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Greetings guru's. I have a technical question: I am using a browser(Netscape 2.0.2 Win 3.1) to access a feedback form at www.aaa.com. I fill in my information and hit the submit button. I see the message "connecting to xxx.bbb.com" flash up on the status line before getting a 'done' message. xxx.bbb.com is _not_ a web hosting service for www.aaa.com. I do a 'whois' on www.aaa.com and contact the tech admin who can duplicate this and is very concerned that information from his forms may be routed to xxx.bbb.com. My question is how this might happen? >From my feeble understanding of such things, this would take modifications to the feedback form (ie. www.aaa.com has been hacked), or packet sniffing somewhere along the route from my browser machine to www.aaa.com. Is there another way to do this? Could a third-party spammer, for example, capture email addresses posted to such a form? Thanks, Tom Porter txporter(a)mindspring.com
