I didn't write that, someone else did.

I don't know anything about who are the subscribers to the list. It's an open list, so there is no reason for government or whomever to approach me if they want to monitor the list.

Raw data to facilitate analysis of writings by people who have posted to cypherpunks is easy enough - the full archive is freely available, and even the archive from before the list was in its current home.

	https://lists.cpunks.org

Of course, that doesn't help with (a) lurkers, (b) remailers/redistributors, (c) people who don't subscribe, but watch the archives, and (d) any other surveillance to individual or collective list members.
