Kill your Television

Threw mine out in 1987. There's more people who don't have indoor bathrooms, than don't have a TV. (source: 1990 Bureau of the Census). I'm in a pretty elite group.

Apologies, but rich has deleted me from his mailboxes, and for a few days now,

As I have, too, now.

somebody has placed a global cancel bot on me. I'm gonna have plenty of fun figuring this out. Kwow any good sniffers?

I'm glad! If my processor/filtering software doesn't have to deal with your garbage, that's more time I have to spend with folks who have something to say.

The only thing your type of "cypherpunk" has to say, is blather about liability, copyrights, and other capitali$t bs. REAL crypto-anarchists, of course, want the destruction of copyrights, trademarks, and other weapons of capitali$m, and will implement crypto-anonymonity to proceed forthwith.

No, I don't know of any better "sniffers" (I assume you mean, "software that can detect a cancelbot"), as such software is impossible to detect. Of course, unless Rich (or whomever cares so much about a moron) has either root on toad.com, or at least as many resources as the NSA, he can't cancel your mail to Cypherpunks (or anywhere else).

I was talking about netnews, mormon.

I agree the list should be public usenet: A mail gate-way to a usenet group that ALSO permits unmoderated posts. This would be a nice way to combine a strict moderated mail-list, with a standard netnews group.

Er, what?

That paragraph makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

There's already hundreds of groups like that, stupid. It will be implemented, whether you like it or not. -- Kill Your Television -- The signal is the noise. ____________________________________________________________________ Jamie Lawrence mailto:jal@cyborganic.net mailto:foodie@netcom.com
