-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Welp, I've been on this list for a long, long time, since its inception way back when. I haven't posted much, lately; mostly lurking and watching and, occasionally giggling at the foolishness that has gone on in recent months (i'm a sociologist by education, so watch this list as a "culture in motion" may someday make for an interesting paper :-). Ever since the internet was shot in the foot by a pair of lawyers selling green cards, I was waiting for the chaos to reach this list. It's here now. I have no problems with the idea of moderating this list. If people wanna waste my time with SPAM and petty flamewars, they shoudl do it in an appropriate forum. I've been here since the beginning, and continue to be here, because I have an interest in crypto, crypto policy, and the politics surrounding it. Not to irk my system administrator with a daily dose of CypherSPAM coming through her system. And if a don't like the moderation decisions, by golly I can go somewhere else. Nice thing is that anybody else can as well. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 Comment: PGP Signed with PineSign 2.2 iQCVAwUBMtClTjokqlyVGmCFAQEZYQP/XUynVmGT0eFCwEAthGO8FcB1Zi76h/Er qG00Q9363cl88yTxj50Jlzmjb4SpIoobtrhCi6fL8s1AabtprALgiTe7KlWQnPva TOLwyTCVtkE7eeY0XtS+eZ18JEV3Z4cHVDIHtIIqIYygBwLyCC5qCmsV9z1Anz8t KU88GDEaeM8= =NDGz -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Robert A.

Then why the hell don't you get off your ass and just "go somewhere else" now? Can you believe this bozo? Must be a Sandy tentacle.

Erm, you mean "If people wanna waste my time with SPAM... they should NOT do it." :) If they spam your email from elsewhere it is still spam. If you don't want noise, I run a free filtered list. To get help on it, send a private message (do not reply to this one, or it will be ignored by the bots if it comes through cypherpunks) with the >SUBJECT< "fcpunx help" (the body of the message is ignored.) =====================================Kaos=Keraunos=Kybernetos============== .+.^.+.| Ray Arachelian | "If you're gonna die, die with your|./|\. ..\|/..|sunder@sundernet.com|boots on; If you're gonna try, just |/\|/\ <--*-->| ------------------ |stick around; Gonna cry?

When Ray Arachelian posts lies to this mailing list, he also forwards them to his censored mailing list. When the victims of Arachelian's libel refute his lies, Ray does not forward their responses to his mailing list. Sandy liked this setup so much, he wants the whole "cypher punks" mailing list to be censored this way. No wonder - "cypher punks" are opposed to wide availability of crypto, privacy, secure communications, and free speech in general. As they keep saying, free speech should only be available to the "elite" who will use it "responsibly" - no free speech for Jews or homophobes. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps

"The grapes are probably Sour" says Vileus. Sorry Kook, your spam doesn't make it to the filtered list, though I'd hate to admit it, your sane posts, the ones that you write once every blue moon, do in fact make it on the filtered list. You are only complaining because people chose to not hear your inane spam, lies, racism, and blatant homophobic banter. And no, my complaints about you, which you claim are lies, do not get sent to the filtered list, they get sent to your ISP for their racist slants.

Hey, if you want cypherpunks mail with spam, subscribe to cypherpunks@toad.com, want it without spam, subscribe to one of the filtered lists. Since filtering will soon be done at toad.com, you will have the choice there. Oh, of course, since you spammed the list with so much vitriol and flames, you can't subscribe, so you'll just have to get your cypherpunks mail under a pseudonym, or from usenet or the web archives or whatever. Also, since you do not consider yourself a cypherpunk, nor are on the list (except to flame it), your oppinions are as useful as a steering wheel on a fish's tail. As for being a Jew or a homophobe, you are welcome to be whatever it is you like to be, even an Armenian hating racist, and you are free to discuss your religion, ethnicity, racism, and sexual prefrences with whomever you want in the appropriate forums - if they happen to have cyrpo relavance, feel free to post them here, otherwise find another place to vent your angst. Hell, you are free to create al.fan.vulis and discuss yourself there! Cypherpunks is for crypto-anarchy oriented posts ONLY regardless of what you claim, believe or bitch. Sorry Vulis, your lies don't fool anyone. Don't quit your day job - if you have one. =====================================Kaos=Keraunos=Kybernetos============== .+.^.+.| Ray Arachelian | "If you're gonna die, die with your|./|\. ..\|/..|sunder@sundernet.com|boots on; If you're gonna try, just |/\|/\ <--*-->| ------------------ |stick around; Gonna cry?
