Cypherpunk Ban

[John Young]

I've checked CJ's probation conditions and there's no mention
of cypherpunks, though POs can probably set any condition
they like. Or can they? The original conditions of release 
proposed by the PO included a ban on computer possession 
or use which was deleted by the judge. The judge also deleted
a ban on use or possession of a slew of computer peripherals
and programs.

I seem to recall transcribing this doc months ago but
can't locate it.

And the case docket with links to the six records
available online (the two above and four others):

A clap of the hands to Western Washington District for
putting case records online. Not many federal courts do
that. A few offer decisions but hardly any records are
available. Records in the terrorism trials in New York 
should be put online in the public interest.

We downloaded the 293 records in the Ahmed Ressam
terrorism case (initiated in Western Washingtion, tried 
in Los Angeles). The most recent records made public 
are those unsealed after action by the Seattle Times in
October. We've transcribed a few of them along with
the Times' impressive public interest argument for 
release (i.e., the public needs to know as much as
possible about terrorism to address self-protection):
