Naturally you'd have to trust that at least one remailer was honest -- but you already do that, right?
Just a curiosity note (yes, I *should* RTFM, but it's about 6am, and I'm late for work, not to mention lazy today :-) While one remailer is considered "sufficient" for the mimaster purpose, does it's position in the chain materially affect it's value? I.e., would there be a "preference" for chaining through the most trusted mix first, last, or "in the middle"? Same question for using the least trusted remailer [frog comes to mind :-(]. Either a discussion or a concise link would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. -- Yours, J.A. Terranson sysadmin@mfn.org If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they should give serious consideration towards setting a better example: Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate... This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers, associates, or others. Besides, if it *were* the opinion of all of those people, I doubt there would be a problem to bitch about in the first place... --------------------------------------------------------------------
