Someone wrote to me:
Did you not mean any homo who has ever shaffted Gilmore and Sandy can write what the fuck they like but straight or intelligent or NORMAL people will have to be filtered.
Yes, that's precisely how Sandfart's moderation will work. Homosexuals like Jason Durbin will continue to post personal attacks on Gilmore's many "enemies", but the victims of the libel will not be able to respond and refute their lies. The concept of "the best response to speech you don't like is more speech" is totally alien to the homosexual subculture on the Internet. These control freaks are into censorship and B&D.
Here's a problem. I don't have "technical" capabilities in the area of communications software, and I have too full a plate to start studying now. But, I/we need to monitor the "moderator", to make sure he doesn't allow people to attack others, then cut the responses.
If he does this, and he doesn't rectify it when it's called to his attention, he would need to be punished in some way. One of the questions I have is, how do I know what's cut when all I subscribe to is the uncensored list? I do *not* want to subscribe to the filtered list plus the "flames" list, out of principle. Is this something that would be forced on me/us in order to monitor the censorship?
In other words, can I separate the censored email without having to have two accounts?
it is easy undex unix, what you have to do is store arriving article in separate directories by message ID and run diff (with certain corrections) on these two directories. diff will print you the files that are in one dir and not in another. take an extraction, and delete too new articles (so that propagation does not screw you up). thats it If you just want the differences and aren't too concerned with timeliness, I'm planning on running a cypherpunks-rejects list containing all the messages that went out the unedited list but didn't show up on the moderated one within x hours (not sure what x should be yet).
