-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- IMHO the remailer network needs to be extended so as to place the risk on (too) many shoulders, thereby reducing it considerably. The winsock remailer has an "shared" option included, meaning every regular e-mail account could serve as a remailer (or at least as middleman). If such an option could be included in e-mail programs, the danger of remailers "dropping like flies left and right" would cease. The accounts could be published on a web page together with the instructions a la Raph's remailer list and the country, where they are located in. Therefore they could even serve as exit point, for the laws of the receiver don't apply there. The only problem I see with shared accounts though is a flood attack, rendering it unusable for the account holder. So probably middleman or PGP-encrypted-only are the most reasonable options. Why not extending the source of Private Idaho to include remailer capabilities, for example?
