A question for the moment might well be how many if any of the remailers are operated by TLAs?
Remailers are secure if at least one remailer in a chain is _not_ compromised...
A case-in-point on this is the admin of the Frog remailer in 2001. He 'outted' a user who chained a message through both of Frog admin's remailers. The admin didn't like what was said and used his logs to match the sender with the decrypted outgoing message. With sendmail and verbose Mixmaster logs, this is trivial to do. It's also not unheard of for remops to log and cooperate to 'out' a spammer. If I were remailing a message that would get me sent to prison, I would definately use a Wi-Fi hotspot and use 3-4 chained remailers with random delays. By the time the message is delivered, it will be many hours/days since the message was sent. -- Keith Ray <keith@nullify.org> -- OpenPGP Key: 0x79269A12
