Kevin McCurry pretended to ask:
I would appreciate any information on the trustworthiness/security of the below named individuals and service. Please, friends, spare me the gratuitous remarks about Sameer, etc., that's not the issue inthis case.
Why are you asking for information on these people and then stating that you don't want 'certain types' of information on Sameer and others? Are you connected in some way to these people, perhaps, and just fishing for compliments that will be supplied by the prepared responses of others?
Allow me to give my 'unprepared' response in regard to remailers in general, since you seem to be seeking only a one-sided viewpoint about the individuals involved.
Firstly, remailers were developed by the cypherpunks as a method of monitoring supposedly private communications of others, in order to increase their own power and wealth. The communications passing through them remain private and anonymous only to those who aren't running them (or who haven't compromised the system).
Secondly, the few remailers that aren't contolled by a small elite within the cypherpunks come and go rather quickly.
Thirdly, the remailer owners only support compromised cryptography systems such as the newer versions of PGP produced by All-my-charges-mysteriously-disappeared- when-I-agreed-to-switch-to-a-new-system Zimmerman.
If you want true anonymity, learn how to hack.
