From: bill@twwells.com (T. William Wells) For my service, given what it is for, the presumption should be anonymity. For the personals groups, perhaps the presumption should be the other way around. There is, almost certainly, no one right answer.
What are your thoughts on solutions which do not do either of these alternatives? For example, several people have discussed systems involving two sets of addresses. These avoid both problems (unexpectedly failing to anonymize / unexpectedly anonymizing a message with a sig), at the cost of some complexity.
Either the perpetrators are so intellectually lacking that they do not see what they are doing or they are so intellectually dishonest that they do. In either case, I am utterly disgusted.
Aren't you detweiling a bit here? I don't think the situation really warrants "utter disgust"... Eli ebrandt@jarthur.claremont.edu
