Okay, I'll read it more. It sounds like you're imagining me suspecting the list administrator of harming the list, and feel disgusted by that idea. (I wouldn't suspect them of this.) It sounds like you then tell me that signing messages is futile and pointless. (I'm not sure why.) It seems you're noting there being public cryptographic proof that I would have sent signed messages, and harm befalling me because of this. (I have that harm already, and one can always make a new private key for a new identity.) But I wasn't asking why you think it's a bad idea. I was asking what you're frustrated about.

you think the list administrator is tampering with the messages? That would be pointless and easily detected. Signing messanges buys you nothing.
ON THE OTHER HAND, if you sign your messages you're providing 'crytographic evidence' for govcorp to further attack you.
It sounds like you felt irritated when I mentioned verifying integrity of messages. What's going on?
I explained why it's a bad idea above. Read what I wrote. If you want to sign your stupid messages, sign them and leave the rest of people and the list list alone.
