No. You made the mistake of "suscriving", now we 0wn you, aol boy... -- Yours, J.A. Terranson sysadmin@mfn.org If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they should give serious consideration towards setting a better example: Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate... This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers, associates, or others. Besides, if it *were* the opinion of all of those people, I doubt there would be a problem to bitch about in the first place... --------------------------------------------------------------------

All your prime bases are belong to us. BTW, I was not receiving Cypherpunks mail for several days, courtesy of my ISP deciding to implement some new policy on reverse DNS addresses (all mail from lne.com, which uses Verio, and mail from Eric Hughes, who uses ricochet.net, bounced at my ISP...probably a lot of other mail also never made it to me..so much for e-mail subpoenas, eh?). My ISP has now decided not to enforce this policy, thankfully. Anyway, I looked at the Cypherpunks HyperArchive to see if the list was still active. Mama Mia! More spam and crud and juvenalia than ever before. An unbelievable amount of crap. The lne.com scheme, which I think I had something to do with getting going, is best. It passes all mail from subscribers, plus mail from all known anonymous remailers. This allows uncensored traffic from any subscriber, as well as anonymized posts through remailers. (Few spammers use remailers.) I'm happy with lne.com's approach (thanks, Eric M.!). --Tim May -- Timothy C.

And also subscribers (like me) that use multiple accounts to post to the list. That requires manual intervention, but has worked well.

Same here. I wouldn't be here without it -- thanks! -Declan
