I just heard on WBUR (NPR) here in Boston that our own L. (I know his real first name now...) "Futplex" McCarthy was busted by the UMASS diginarks for putting "Nazi material" on the internet. This must be one of those Nazi-mirrors I've been skipping articles over...
Horrors. We seem to be discovering more and more side effects from the defense of free speech for the unpopular. The Holocausta Nostra is cheering wildly at the opportunity to present the works of Mr. Zundel under a banner reading "Nazi Scum". Zundelsites are being set up by people whose views are so disgusting they probably offend even Mr. Zundel himself. And now our very own "Futplex" will have to live the rest of his life branded as a electronic distributor of "hate literature" by the forces of political correctness at UMASS. It may be time to regroup and take inventory of what we are suposedly trying to accomplish here. -- X-Signature: Mike Duvos X-Signature-File: c:\netcom\mail.sig On a completely different note, which I am appending so as to waste as little bandwidth as possible, Cypherpunks messages to my netcom account stopped dead two days ago, and I am getting no response from either majordomo@toad.com or cypherpunks-owner@toad.com. I am currently reading the list quite nicely on news://news.hks.net/hks.lists.cypherpunks using Netscape so it really isn't a big deal, but I was just curious if there was a routing problem or some other Net glitch. Please EMAIL any replies.
