Might I suggest that this is not the right newsgroup for anti-Clipper articles? I've never seen *any* Cypherpunk defend it; what's the point? Preaching to the choir? Repeat doses of brainwashing?
Not at all. Keep in mind that newbies join this list often enough to warrant such information being readily available to them. Also, not everyone is elequent in their attacks against CLIPPER, ITAR, DT2, etc. Such articles provide well needed analogies and situation examples for common use. No cypherpunk should be without such resources. Just because you find it superflous doesn't mean others won't find it interesting and/or useful. I personally didn't find any >NEW< information, but that doesn't make for a needless post.
