How about payphones? No they aren't Clipper phones. But the point is to make people paranoid, and thus make them think about the issues. For soon it WILL be a Clipper phone. -=Xenon=- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.3 iQCVAgUBLWJGIASzG6zrQn1RAQEglwP/UvzVBo9VDGZX62u3yqM76Pe1GP804HMa dZppBecPtH1ioClP2cR7InCTE8ORSxhPbWBsRDxtF05/ABpSwZogVZcvUzu+s6Lv 2nZtvZWpX18bCI1zdHnJyI4M9EhLLmGe3uoMP7gK8RxK7vVu4YwA6KD/FWgl3uhl jnnfBfvDrtQ= =4w6z -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
This is an awful idea, as it completely dilutes the message of the sticker which is that Clipper Phones have built in insecurity. We are not trying to create general paranoia -- we are trying to sink clipper. If you want general paranoia why not just pump speed into the municipal water supply? .pm qwerty-remailer@netcom.com says:

You have to admit though, there's a certain 'charm' in putting big brother stickers on telephones...... Of course, there's a a charm in putting speed in the municipal water supply too :-) ____ Robert A.
