Re: Handling Abuses of Remailers

Re: remailer price schedules

My guess on all this is that you could make an awful lot of money at a dime a hop for a less-than-10K message. Sell hops only in packages of a hundred, in order to reduce your finance charges.

Geeez, Eric! I'd think a penny a hop would be a pretty high price... And given that most messages go through two hops, then you'd really be giving your 2 cents worth! Note that there can be about 50 cypherpunks messages a day -- if each went through 2 hops at $0.10 / hop, as you proposed, that would be $10 / day in revenues for the remailers. Seems like a lot to me. I would support the idea if I felt that the system would quiet the flame wars, but I think rather it would simply quiet the poor... Fen
