-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- FORTRESS remailers should be disguised in some way: "DBN announced solemnly that it was everyone's duty to turn in all computers and radios to the authorities for the duration of the Emergency. Not many were impressed by this pronouncement unless you counted laughter. I'd hate to be on the side trying to confiscate everything. That cactus might be a combination photovoltaic cell and radio antenna with green chlorophyll-enriched paint. Or it might just be a cactus. Maybe that flag pole is a hidden shortwave antenna. Should we tear down our own flag? That car engine, vacuum cleaner, hospital centrifuge, or those countless damned white-noise decoys might be unauthorized spread-spectrum radio transmitters. Or not. The bitter end had come, but the Feds wouldnÕt back down..." Another Little Brother problem: "Consumers wanted businesses to 'get it' concerning their preferences, without any effort on their part. But they insisted on absolute individual privacy. A method of scanning the face was devised that could evaluate and report the emotional state of the viewers, without disclosing the identity of any particular viewer, via a blind-audit protocol. This compromise was accepted by most broadcast receiver customers. It was not generally known that the biggest consumer of collective emotional data was the Department of National Security. The data was purchased under a number of marketing research company names, then transmitted directly to DNS in real time, making it the most important tool DNS had for "the manufacturing of consent." A Presidential speech was broadcast, and the sum of the viewer reactions was received. The speech program was adaptive, so statements evoking the most positive response were generated, if they fell within the policy constraints set by the Directorate of the Department."
