I definately prefer decentralized solutions. Anyone mandating what I can and cannot read is slime (synonomous with censor), imo. I want to make that choice myself, thank you very nice. I suppose that a kill file of something like ".*@remailer.site" for each of the remailers would filter out all of the anonymous kill files. It still would slow down everyone news reader's, though. And as a news admin, if someone anonymous user abuses USENET by sending large GIF's to a newsgroup, this filling up my news spool, I (and each individual news admin) can make the individual choice to mail each offending anonymous news posting to the postmaster@remailer.site. Is that what you meant by a decentralized solution? :-) - Ted
