Forwarding Cyberia-L mail by: hayam@actcom.co.il (Avraham Hayam) on Sat, 9 Dec 6:16 AM ------------------- Greetings, The only way for E-Mail Privacy on the internet is - ENCRYPTION. You don"t have to be an Internet Expert to understand that data which is not encrypted is open for every one. On Oct. 20 1995 Andy Jonson-Laird <andy@jli.com> sent a most interesting data to the list concerning that the user has absulutly no control ever how the data is routed. A Mail that he sent to an address which is at the distance of 11 miles actualy did 1200 miles. It may be " The end of days vision" that privacy will be maintained without encryption. With the ongoing danger from the Cypherpunks, we must use very strong Algorithms. A French "algorithms cracker" recommended not long ago that the commercial sector have to use not less than 128 bytes based algorithms. I will appreciate to receive list members opinion.
