Cryptome to be Terminated by Verio/NTT

George Maschke writes "Cryptome, a website concerned with encryption, privacy, and government secrecy, has received two weeks' notice from Verio that its service will be terminated for unspecified "violation of [its] Acceptable Use Policy." Cryptome has a history of making publicly available documents and information that governments would rather keep secret. For the notice, and a public response by Cryptome webmaster John Young, see Cryptome Shutdown by Verio/NTT."

    Bah, my bad. Everything on that page beloe the very first thing was probably quoted in response to the very first letter. Very poor formatting on Cryptome's part.

    Thousands of people around the world have had their families destroyed by acts that Bush is responsible for, and you can rest assured that they will have their revenge. So joke about "blaming" Bush for bad acts now from the safety of your keyboard, if it makes you feel better - it might go some way to balancing out the fear you should feel whenever you fly a plane or enter a tall building. Thanks to Bush, those fears are more justified today than they were before he took office.
