If you look on pg. 34 of the handbook, Sect. 97.A13 says that this list is primarily for passing child porn and dirty limericks in unbreakable codes. You really should read your Internet Handbook before asking these questions. You Internet Service Provider DID give you the Official Internet Handbook right?
Many of us tried to get copies before the Great Handbook Renaming (*), but were unable to. My sysadmins at Portal, then Netcom, kept promising it would be made available, but I never saw it. In most jurisdictions the "Internet Handbook" is simply not available. Can't somebody make it available via an anonymous remailer? Surely they can't be watching _all_ of the time? In any case, as I understand things, all mentions of Cypherpunks were taken out of the Handbook in 1993. --Klaus! (* For the newbies, the Internet Handbook used to be known as "The Protocols of the Elders of the Arpanet," but the name was changed in the Great Renaming. It was considered controversial even back in 1973 when I got my first Arpanet account.) Views here are not the views of my Internet Service Provider or Government. ---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---- Timothy C.
