Re: Introduction: Telephone traffic analysis
shamrock@netcom.com (Lucky Green):
I stumbled upon this great explanation of telephone traffic analysis and thought I'd share it with the list:
It is to evade this sort of traffic analysis that complex routing, batching and clustering of anon remailer traffic is being evolved. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rishab Aiyer Ghosh "Clean the air! clean the sky! wash the wind! rishab@dxm.ernet.in take stone from stone and wash them..."

Hello all, Is anybody interested in forming a mailing list explicitly for e-cash discussion? After looking at the c'punks list for at least a year, there seems to be the critical mass of interest to create a medium volume mailing list. The most critical benefit that such a dedicated list would have is that we could probably generate interest from parties who may have an interest in alternate currency/cash systems but have no interest/ knowledge of crypto (a lot of hard core financiers that I know of come to mind...). I don't have the resources to create a list but I'd be more than glad to help out someone who has access to 'em. ------------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Vinod Valloppillil | Even if you're one in a million, Telecom/MIS/Strategic MGMT | there's still a thousand more of you Engineering/Wharton | in China..... vvallopp@eniac.seas.upenn.edu | ------------------------------+---------------------------------------------- "When buying and selling are controlled by legislation, the first things to be bought and sold are legislators." - P.J.

Half a dozen such special sub-list exists on Cypherpunks--bet you didn't know that, eh? That's because they go unused, for reasons I've written about before. And there _are_ money-related lists: IMP-Interest, DigLib, AltInst, and probably others I've missed. Why start yet another one?

If you're not on _their_ lists, why do you think they'll join _your_ list?

Creating such a list is the easy part (Duncan and Sandy just did it for PRIVACY 101)..the hard part is having it survive infancy. --Tim May -- ..........................................................................

I'm thinking (again) about setting up a specialized mailing list for discussing cryptography... Perry
