I see a potential business opportunity for enterprising cypherpunks: People have been posting things saying "we should have press releases". People have been posting useful information regarding fax numbers of reporters around the country and such. In this I see a potential low-maintenance business opportunity for some enterprising cypherpunk with a high-grade fax machine. There is no way anyone can make a 'Cypherpunk press release' because there is no "Cypherpunk Organization". There -are- however, cypherpunks organizations. Community ConneXion is one, for example, and others such as COMSEC partners may be considered cypherpunk organizations. Some enterprising cypherpunk may wish to sell the services of their fax machine so that cypherpunk organizations don't need to invest the time towards building up a good database of press fax numbers. For some fee a cypherpunk organization would send only to the service a press release, and the service would make sure it reaches all the people in the press who find cypherpunk topics interesting. Hell, if no one sets this up before I get my own mass-faxer setup, I might just do it myself. -- sameer Voice: 510-601-9777 Community ConneXion FAX: 510-601-9734 An Internet Privacy Provider Dialin: 510-658-6376 http://www.c2.org (or login as "guest") sameer@c2.org
