It is becoming increasingly obvious that John Young is the real troublemaker here. I wouldn't doubt that it was John who was behind the original troubles between Vulis and Sameer. I think that John Young should be forcefully unsubscribed from the Cypherpunks mailing lists. YoungMonger

That is bullshit! So far, there have been claims to a backdoor but no actual proof. Everytime someone asks for said proof, there is a huge amount of handwaving and misdirection as to why any sort of proof cannot be revealed. Each time the excuses get more and more elaborate. "C2Net will sue us." "We can make more money if we keep it secret." "It is already well known." But the excuses get pretty thin after a while without any real proof. Yes, employees of C2Net have acted in a stupid manner. But, in my opinion, you are using that as a smokescreen to avoid having to reveal anything substantial. (Because you do not have anything substantial.) You can point fingers, accuse people of all sorts of things, and make all the wheeping wailing and knashing of teeth you want. It still somes down to the fact that you have shown no hard evidence that such a backdoor exists.

Alan, are you still doubting that C2Net's lawyers threatened several people on this mailing list and demanded that they not publish the "proof"? They called my home a number of times and served me with some papers. I'm surprised that JYA hasn't placed the C2Net lawyer letter in his archives. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps

Is it merely a coincidence that "John Young" and "John Gilmore" share the same first name? --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps

Dimitri, I laughed till I cried, when I read this. I hope you were trying to be humorous. If not, then seek psychiatric help immediately! (See if you can get us a group discount, because I have come to believe that the 'moderation experiment' was a clever ruse to weed out all of the 'sane' people from the Cypherpunks list.)
