The present plan prosed by John Gilmore is good 3-4 U.S. Sites willing to risk litigation and counter-litigation. And I have a another sort of plan that still really requires an out of country A-server(anonymous posting server). A number of PGP-related services may be set up behind such a screen. Having PGP encryption in the style of PAX would be crucial to maintain the anonymity of such services. #1. Michael Grafs PGP Key-Server #2. Anonymous Digital "face" banks(ala Chaum) #3. Gray Market Exchange #4. Encrypted Anonymous Mailing Lists(Example: Dark Technology) #5. Data Havens. #6. alt.whistleblowers(really "hearing aid" see Brunner, J. "Shockwave Rider" A vast network of anonymous servers may be maintained behind the screen of a single foreign site A-server ready to come on line at a single command if suppression attempts are experienced. However AARM type scripts will continue to be a threat,I also think we should look at the possibility of both port 25 and port 119 manipulation with auto-search and random selection of NNTP and SMTP open servers as well as header addition to confuse path analysis... I know this is normally regarded as unprofitable but considering what we are up against... Addition dialup slip and ppp hosts could use a variety of 9.6-56kb dialup sites to provide rotating xntp synchronized anonymous posting and mail services.Uucp sites could play as well on email-based services via uucp. Are any foreign sites up for running David Clunies PAX Code??? cheers kelly - -------- - -- To add the following key block to your PGP2.0 Public Key Ring save this entire message to a file and enter the following command: pgp -ka [name_of_file_saved] The above key block is included on every message I send from - -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: 2.2 mQCNAiqua1sAAAEEAMhfx9J4HPDUZReVFsxS1EZh1jArbIKYtFsL8qit1xCDU8xk Sg/MyOVg37CXv/zKGhjrYt1/F4zntHewIDMm3LkH/G/do74zq1R1NrukD5PUbU8/ aeOvsFmjI3HGJGQNpPXXd8eegxHeggOpQPqLNbsl+VSFY5qka/gXinP2G6VzAAUR tB9rZWxseSA8cGxlaWt1IWtlbGx5QG5ldGNvbS5jb20+tBFzbmFrZUBjYWRlbmNl LmNvbbQdS2VsbHkgR29lbiA8a2VsbHlAbmV0Y29tLmNvbT6JAJUCBRAq0+Yk4nXe Dv9n9wsBAUbXA/9nPYjlRcak+JHZzrU8IHwqvSi/eA8IxKfviB0aaOgEkJOgoSrD FzGl0wq9usgqywl1cG05pHhy9dE5YisPrhQUq7Vo3piOxsrhAxdX3OP14wEfqpIU g23lgq55DKKHVf5ea+/F84mdTO7l3Ef4BzfwdKa7YfsFzLOcjWthwnQa84kAlQIF ECq1XovhoOw8SgKpbwEB8bgD/RkyuGei5GZFmXACvF5tBJ2UsCOmmv1c4y4gFQ6U /YO+lO22kVbW497tKJYZyJIMqCj9AnlhqPePiYrj76n951tF3R5AkmTaBIC1SAB6 2oB7xgOSnrt0LxZJml6cLROM6ZpFYIvOVp5GHGlVWu9vxP7BKo+z4LnzFlQzu83O Et4U =PfOI - -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- pleiku!kelly@netcom.com.... ------- End of Unsent Draft
