  2. And how long will this last... by vidarlo · · Score: 1 · on PDF Tracking On the Way
    I doubt this will last for a very long time. Does pdf2txt obey this? Does convert (ImageMagick) obey this? If not,
    convert tracked.pdf tracked.png &&gqview pdf
    will solve any tracking.

    If the content is unencrypted, and inside the file, then anyone can read it if they want. PDF is a documented format, where you can read the specification, and simply make a reader that discards the tracking. Or simply add a line in /etc/hosts redirecting the tracker to 127.0.0.1.

    The point about web is that it is easy to track because (most) people download pages from the server, and don't email the html-source to each other. They mail links. With PDF's, they mail the pdf.

  5. Re:Poison? How about crasher? by bero-rh · · Score: 3 · on Spambot Poisoner

    The speed of poisoning depends on what poison you use...
    I tend to think a spammer with an address database containing root@localhost, postmaster@localhost, abuse@localhost, root@localhost.localdomain, , abuse@localhost.localdomain, root@[127.0.0.1], postmaster@[127.0.0.1], abuse@[127.0.0.1], and uce@ftc.gov wouldn't have too much fun before being kicked by his ISP.
