Blaming Encryption
EisPick writes: "Just as a previous generation wrestled with whether or not to blame physicists for The Bomb, there are some misguided folks who are blaming Phil Zimmermann for the ability of terrorists to communicate confidentially. He tells the Washington Post, 'It has been a horrific few days.'" Meanwhile, John Gilmore has posted far and wide a call to mirror encryption code outside the United States, since export regulations are making a comeback.
After all, Theo was the one that started it....
I piss on Mecca. I wipe my ass with the Koran. I spit upon Mohammed.
Yahoo! Bulk Mail Folder Activation Notice
Dear PhilZimmerman@yahoo.com:
You have just received an email message in your new Bulk Mail Folder!
Yahoo! has created this folder as part of our continuing efforts to fight unsolicited commercial email, commonly known as spam. Using Spamguard™, an innovative technology recently developed at Yahoo!, we are now able to automatically detect spam and direct it to your bulk mail folder. The Yahoo! Mail team believes this will significantly reduce the intrusion of unwanted commercial email into your inbox.
While we will make our best efforts to deliver solicited commercial and non-commercial email directly to your inbox, we may occasionally send a message that you have requested to your bulk mail folder. For this reason, it is important that you check this folder periodically to make sure that you do not miss these messages. If you believe that a message that has been delivered to your bulk mail folder is more appropriately delivered to your inbox, please click on the "Send to Yahoo! for review" link on the message and it will be automatically forwarded to Yahoo! Customer Care for a careful review. Furthermore, if there is a particular message in your bulk mail folder that you want to ensure is delivered to your inbox, you can set up a filter to do that. More information on filters can be found at filters help.
Messages will remain in your bulk mail folder for a minimum of 30 days, unless you delete them yourself. After 30 days, the messages will be subject to automatic removal. You may wish to empty (delete the contents of) your bulk mail folder yourself on a periodic basis as these messages will count towards your mail quota until deleted.
To access the bulk mail folder, click on "Folders" in the blue navigation bar on the left of your Yahoo! Mail screen and then click on "Bulk Mail" in the mail screen. To empty the folder, click "check all" at the bottom of the folder and then "delete" checked messages. You can also click on "folders" in the left-hand navigation bar and then on "empty" next to bulk mail.
If you do not want Yahoo! to send messages to your bulk mail folder anymore, you may opt-out of this service. In order to opt-out, go to Mail Preferences and click on "Inbox" under "Bulk Mail Delivery." Don't forget to "save" your preferences before you leave the page.
Please note that Yahoo! provides the Bulk Mail Filtering and Deletion System (Spamguard™) as a service to our users. If users do not want to use the service, they may opt-out. Yahoo! makes no warranties and disclaims any liability in connection with your use of or inability to use this service. For more information, please review our Terms of Service.
As always, abuse of the Yahoo! Mail system by sending unsolicited commercial email and certain types of unsolicited non-commercial email (for example, chain letters) is a violation of the Yahoo! Terms of Service.
Sincerely,
The Yahoo! Mail Team
Excuse me sir, can you point me at any documentation for becoming a raging homosexual? You see, that's always been a dream of mine. All the other kids in my first-grade class used to say they wanted to become firemen, or soldiers, or the President. Not me. J. Edgar Hoover was always my hero, so when Mrs. Smith asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I told her, "Mrs Smith, I want to be a raging homosexual!" She didn't like that, for some reason. All the other kids made fun of me, but that was OK. I could ignore them in favor of pursuing my dream of becoming a raging homosexual.
Today, I've believe I've mastered the homosexual part. My ass can take cocks you wouldn't believe, and my dick's been sucked by thousands of hot guys. What I'm having trouble with is the raging part. If you could point me at any web pages with information on skilled raging, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks for your help.
could someone please quote Ben Franklin.
Let's not forget to kill the sandniggers too!!!

show it to us, because they must protect their
sources.

The above post is NOT 'Offtopic'. It is 'Flamebait'. Stupid moderators!
Im not complaining, its still better than a lot of alternatives...
Like what? Punching youself in the dick for hours on end? (YOu are talking about GNU/Linux aren't you?)
You really think that nuclear power stations have bombs in them?
The guy I was responding to was talking about linux, fucktard. Do you even read posts or do you just blindly start defending Linux at the drop of a hat?
*** PLEASE READ THIS *** URGENT ***
Those damned terrorists just took out the Empire State Building and Sears towers! The Empire State Building is still standing but the Sears went down 35 minutes after it was hit. There are also reports of a gas attack on Boston. Another plane was shot down on its way to the capital.
Yahoo has the terrible details here.
*** UPDATE ***
It seems the Empire State building has finally collapsed! Fire and medical officials are afraid to go in after authorities received threats of anthrax bombs in the plane! Over 25,000 dead in Boston!!
I can't write anymore sorry

listen sucka, i wasnt defending LinUx, I was taking a shot at you because you started talking about the penguin for no fuckign reason. He said shit about LinUx, you must have replied to the wrong post.
I stand by my dissapointed groan
f-ing kraut, when we're in your country we'll spell it your way. at ellis island we weed out all the extraneous consonants and give names their proper american spelling.
Lisen cuntface, I was taking a shot at you cause you are fuckhead.
Would this get you in trouble?
Ownd! W00t.
If they used encryption and stego, should we ban them from law-abiding citizens, considering the terrorists will keep on using stego and we'll never tell the difference?
