From: Syed Yusuf <yusuf921@uidaho.edu> in all this discussion about how well it would work and ways around it, I think I've missed the problem that people are trying to solve. I want more people to actually use cryptography. I don't phrase it as a problem, with it's implicit value judgement, but rather as what I want. isn't it ironic that privacy advocates are suggesting manditory loss of anonimity (which is what forced signing is). The first appearance of a key is anonymous. The second and later are pseudonymous. Even mandatory signing (which is not what is being proposed) does not eliminate anonymity. Eric
