news.admin.policy: A Report From the Front
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- The good guys are beginning to prevail in the news.admin.policy battle over pseudonymous postings, aided in no small part by the opposition, one of whom began unilaterally cancelling articles by nyms. This tactical blunder produced a firestorm of protest and brought in fresh voices eager to speak out on the side of privacy and freedom of expression. We need to continue to weigh in on the side of pseudonymous postings. Perhaps the most constructive approach is to do so pseudonymously!

As far as this automatic cancelling business goes, what can be automatically cancelled can also be automatically regenerated. Who here has been in such a news war and has software already written? Eric

While I agree with you in spirit, I think this would be a bad move. We don't want to get into a news war. We want people to listen to us. The best was to sway people to our side, especially when there are others who are pissing people off, is to keep a calm head and stature. The more that that other person pisses off the news admins, the more they will be willing to listen to our side. If we rush head-long and get into an all-out news war, then those same admins might not listen to us as intently as they would if we stay cool and calm. Please, no news wars. It can only hurt our cause! - -derek PGP 2 key available upon request on the key-server: pgp-public-keys@toxicwaste.mit.edu - -- Derek Atkins, MIT '93, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Secretary, MIT Student Information Processing Board (SIPB) MIT Media Laboratory, Speech Research Group warlord@MIT.EDU PP-ASEL N1NWH -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.2 iQBuAgUBK6YUZTh0K1zBsGrxAQEvIgLFEQM+XkIlgkZWFPz25Ic3wRYKOMPYTDF5 6rVn1zOYppNZ/37BHBFzEvIGWI8X4wX+mBgzIxzi/NmNKlUrm1/EMPzI0OyZPqOS yoQClw/n1D1XDw7Ofxnr17M= =DBN5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
