We just heard from another anonymous poster trying to destroy our rights to free speech. How long will the cypherpunks put up with this?
As Tim May has explained over and over again, "the cypherpunks" do not exist. Cypherpunks is a mailing list, not a society or club. "The cypherpunks" as a group can do nothing about what gets posted to this list except comment on it. BTW, it would be helpful if you would provide some context when you complain or comment about another posting. At the time I read your note, it was the only cypherpunks note in my mailbox. Perhaps I read some message earlier from the ECafe anonymous mailer but if so, it certainly wasn't remarkable enough to leave a lasting impression. Finally, it should be noted that the kind of messages you're posting lately are eerily reminiscent of Detweiler's mental deterioration just before he went off the deep end. In fact, the line "How long will the cypherpunks put up with this?" may be an exact quote. -- Jeff
