Just a quick question... Does anyone object to their posts to this list being forwarded (to cypherpunk type lists)? I will honour any requests not
I object since it would likely increaes the volume of the mailing list, which was designed to be low-volume (IMHO) so that all remailer operators would bother to read it. Those operators who do not already read cypherpunks may not welcome the increase of flaming, wildly tagentantal material and plenty of petty bickering.
Only an asshole without the brainpower to recognize the importance of open discussions of Tanya Harding's chances of forging a new career in the WorldWide Wrestling Federation would also fail to recognize that differences of opinion over the size of jockey shorts that Chris Lewis should be required to wear is essential to the future of the IntereNet. Privacy Admin (if that is your *real* name...) would be well advised to consider the astronomical rise in cost of InterNet access that could result from AOL'ers learning to successfully unsubscribe from mailing lists, instead of subsidizing the rest of us by paying exhorbitant fees to send multiple messages saying, "I'm SERIOUS! Unscribvive me from this fucking mailing list or I will keep complaining, instead of buying a clue!" If the foregoing doesn't seem to make sense, it's OK, because I am a list scibviver. (Although I have been unsuccessfully trying to ubscrivive for the last several months.) Tojohoto
