"Waaa, he was vicious! He used a remailer!" Oh my! Well that's just proof that he's working for Microsoft! (With a nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more to Monty Python.) You've called him on it several times. Get over it. I couldn't give a fuck whether or not "it" (unless it has expressed a gender clue to the contrary, I'll randomy assign "he" to it) is Bill Gate's personal buttboy. If his arguement is BS it will stand on its own as BS. Shame on you. Bad dog! All you're doing is weaking your own arguements. IMNHO TCPA sucks balls. But "anonymous" has the right to speak anonymously as does anyone, and most of us here will defend that right, regardless of accepting or rejecting TCPA/Palladium/MSFT. You remember that old saw about "I may not agree with you, but I will defend your right to say it to the death" -- just add anonymously in there. It's up to that "anon" or collection of anons to chose to disclose it's/their affiliation/admiration for MSFT or not. Besides, from what I've seen, those anon messages weren't signed. So I can claim "I am that anonymous" and so can Vulis, Choate, Lucky, Tim, Declan, RAH, yourself, your mom, the horse she rode on, the FedZ, the NSA spook Satelite dancers (like the Rockettes, but they wear stego-panty stockings and have barcodes on their foreheads sent by Lotus Notes so the DIRNSA has a copy), and the Man Show Juggies. So what? Would the real "anon shady please stand up?" ROTFL! ----------------------Kaos-Keraunos-Kybernetos--------------------------- + ^ + :NSA got $20Bill/year|Passwords are like underwear.

What kind of crack are you smoking? This is cypherpunks. Anonymous posters are the norm here.

The point is not that some people here are posting anonymously, the point is that Anonymous could make a far stronger point by disclosing his identity, thus showing that he has no vested interest in the matter.

His psyops-fu is rather good, I'm curious if this correlates with the views he's projecting.
