Cypherpunk Ban

I don't recall the rationale used by the USPO to forbid
CJ from posting to cypherpunks. Anybody know the
answer to that?

I can see the spite value, but what harm could possibly
come from posting to cypherpunks as distinguished from
another mail list? Or does the ban include posting to
any mail list.

I read the prohibition against using the Internet for any
purpose except research on medical and legal matters,
but nothing in the probation conditions about cyperpunks
itself.

Is that selective ban of cpunks a prelude to Tora Bora-ing
the whole shebang?

Just what is it about cypherpunks that drives federal officials
in the elf-buggering northwest to phantasms of Inquisition, 
Witch Burning, chasing home-brewed bin Ladens? Inshallah,
they act demon-possessed like christ-fetishist Robert Hanssen.

Speaking of stakeworthy witches, did you see that mad-terrorist
groupie Jessica Stern was featured by Time magazine as one 
of the Five Underappreciated Americans?
