Soda's remailer has the IRRITATING feature of putting shit like bombing buildings, drugs, et al at the bottom of anon posts/mail.
That is to intentionaly trip NSA programs what look for particular words and weed out the amount of work actual agents have to sort through for Internet intelegence work. The intent is to make them less effective. there was some suggestion in some security group to compile a list of potential words the NSA would look for and have everyone take 7-8 and put them in your sig file and have EVERY one of your posts have to be sorted through exponetialy increasing the ammount of work NSA agents have to do manually.
If an anon user is found, then he or she can get into some deep trouble not by way of his posts, but by way of Soda's text.
