In my last message to this list, I pointed out that my name is spelled Philip. I neglected to point out that I also did not write the message allegedly from me (or from Phillip). This is why that for signed messages, we need to make sure that the signing key is properly signed by trusted introducers. --prz At 8:44 PM -0500 10/23/97, Randall Farmer wrote:

However, I have reassessed my views of who truly has a right to control access to privacy and have come to the conclusion that privacy is too important an issue to be left in the hands of the individual, with the obvious potential for misuse.
Hmm...I haven't checked any signatures or headers yet, but something tells me that this ain't PRZ. For example, the Organization: header refers to Orwell's 1984 as a "blueprint"...forget the signatures (just got a message saying they match -- either that person's lying, "they" cracked his key, or it's some detail that has the program using a different key/ignoring some text), it is psychologically impossible for someone to go from privacy advocate to 1984-as-a-blueprint that quick.
