I haven't looked at RIPEM much but I'm sure the remailers could use it as easily as PGP. Even non-encrypting remailers can provide basic anonymous posting and mail, if those would be more acceptable. I thought about this. The major problem is that once the PEM beta-testing period ends, all keys must be registered with "approved" (by RSA) central authorities.
Oh, NO! RSADSI will CERTIFY you keys, IF YOU WISH; and they'll certify your PERSONAL keys for free (unlike any other level of "confidence", which MAY cost money :-)... Where did you get this idea from? [Also it's my understanding, that one could use other certifying authorities besides RSADSI]. -- Regards, Uri uri@watson.ibm.com scifi!angmar!uri N2RIU ----------- <Disclamer>
