GPGMail plugin for Apple Computer's Mail.app works wonderfully. Using GnuPG from DarwinPorts/OpenDarwin or following the binary download from www.gnupg.org, there will be a.dmg for the Mac that has an installable.pkg in the disk image. This is the simplest way to do encryption with the mac. There are some GnuPG front ends available for the Mac from www.gnupg.org which are helpful in generating keys, importing public keys etc etc.
The only hitch with using GPGMail with the DarwinPorts version of GnuPG is, GPGMail expects the gpg binary to be in/usr/loca/bin and it's hard-coded. This is normal and good, but DarwinPorts places it in/opt/local/bin. The work around is creating a symlink: "ln -s/opt/local/bin/gpg/usr/local/bin/gpg" w/o the quotes.
For Windows.
A user already mentioned WinPT before and there are many posts already mentioning Enigmail with Thunderbird. There is also a GnuPG plugin(here too)for OutLook Express.
Those are just two, other options will come up from other people
The mods here don't know anything about pki to have modded this up so high. The NSA would also have to have each senders private keys to decrypt the messages. This is extremely difficult if proper security is used with each users private keys.
Prison is almost never the answer in these situations. How about instead of 5 years if prison, they're charged financially what it would cost per prisoner for 5 years plus 5 years probation?
No prison, and the state could use the money. It sure beats filling up the prisons with useless bullshit.
You know what? This sounds like something I'm going to do when I go on my flight next week to visit my parents and assorted family. JUST TO PROVE A POINT! I can read any god damn thing I want anywhere I choose. Weather it be on a boat, train, bus or AIRPLANE! They can kiss my ass if they think for one minute I will stop reading material that's of interest to me simply because 'someone else is uncomfortable'.
fucking sheep. YOU VOTED FOR THIS HOUSE OF HORRORS NOW LIVE WITH IT!/just slightly pissed off//I'll let you guys know how it goes!
Very true. It would also be simpler to also have a co-ordinated infrastructure change where all the routers, switches and computers have the equal ability to run IPv6 on their equipment then on a "transition" week, everything would switch over. Maybe not even a transition week, but a transition weekend, where everything would transition over friday, saturday and sunday where "business hours" would not be effected too much.
This can be a mandated change for a specific weekend in the united states and the cost is simply the cost of "doing business" much like many other nights IT and sysadmin people have to do already. It could also be a "worldwide" effort, but that's just my idealistic nature coming out again.
Since microsoft windows, apple os x, linux and from what I gather, most other operating systems as well, would have the automatic ability to request an IPv6 address at no hassle to the user. I would also gather that cisco and other major switching/router mfg companies have this ability already, it would be well within their power and ability to do such an operation.
I am also intrigued by this. Having only a Subject and Comment boxes that require the user to have already gpg signed this statement upon pressing submit. When that happens the server, which already has the users public key (which could also be a keyserver that verifies emails, but that's another story), could verify that this signature is from GPG ID 0x532D252A and allow the post, otherwise it would make it "new poster awaiting public key or anonymous cowherder.

There is also the way he presented it on his blog. Sure you can talk like that with your friends, but when you put things on the internet you have to consider, really consider if you wouldn't object saying this to an auditorium full of people because that's what it's is. A public forum where people, teachers, YOUR PROFESSOR AND FELLOW STUDENTS will be able to read and discover if they want.
Publicly you have that right, but I don't think this individual took into account the vast readership his.journal had the potential it did.
This might sound rather sad, but this is what I do. Considering how I've been slowly moving family away from Microsoft products and operating systems and to Apple systems, my solution was to set-up their system once they purchased it BEFORE they even touched it.
I made myself the administrator of the system, gave one of them a "managed" account with a simple finder. All the applications could be used but the restrictions were little enough so they could do everything they needed without access to Terminal, or other programs that were un-needed.
On another, it pretty much ended up being the same thing but installing some software they needed for work and some recreational stuff (snood for OS X!).
They've never had a problem since. I do all updates remotely through ssh or Remote Desktop, they themselves never having to worry about it. And I, having the time simply do it for them. They sit behind a nicely admin'd bsd box as well, so -:D nuff said.

So... why is this a problem? Even pornography has been listed by the CDC as an addictive element. One doctor from the University of Pennsylvania had made it into an article and this is what was written:
PORNOGRAPHY Psychiatrist labels porn nation's most addictive substance University of Pennsylvania psychiatrist Dr. Mary Anne Layden told a Senate committee that pornography should be classified as an addictive drug due to its destructive nature.
"It [pornography] is more toxic the more you consume, the harder the variety you consume, and the younger and more vulnerable the consumer," Layden said.
She explained how pornography damages a person's beliefs and behavior. Belief damage includes the adverse effect of normal "attitudes about what constitutes healthy sexual and emotional relationships."
As far as behavioral damage, pornography can cause tendencies toward psychologically unhealthy actions, socially inappropriate actions and even illegal actions.
In addition, research reveals "that 40% of sex addicts will lose their spouses, 58% will suffer severe financial losses, and 27% to 40% will lose their jobs or their professions."
Layden considers pornography the most dangerous addictive substance available in America and is urging Congress to investigate the harm it causes.
AgapePress, 12/1/04
This appeared on an AP wire and was published throughout the United States. Various other Psychiatry departments at universitys and independant clinics have listed pornography as an endangering and addticive substance, even more so than heroin.
These articles have been researched and the doctors, psychiatrist clinics etc have not been funded or influenced by any "american family organisation" or whatnot so those of you wishing to put a slant on the news articles and reports presented to the senate should look up this information as well.
The major problem over pornography is this. The chemicals that are pumped into your system during arousal, stimulation and release (ejaculation) you can't get away from. They're inside of you. There are certain chemicals within you that act as 1) a focusing agent, to keep your attention on what the focus of your arousal are on and 2) a bonding agent (on release). This is the same chemical that goes through your body when you hold your newborn child, causing the parents to have a "bonding" experience and have a stronger deeper loving relationship with their child. This also happens when you are having that orgasm with your sexual partner. It's in effect a "glue" to help in the bonding of husband and wife. I'm uncertain of these chemicals names, but anyone studying human biology, physilogy or anything dealing with human reproduction in depth can verify this.
The promiscuity and masterbation are like you lying to yourself. What are you really bonding to? A picture? A fantasy or television screen? Your hand? These do in themselves foster selfishness and unrealistic expectations on women.
These are just a list of facts and I'll leave the arguing of "freedom", "rights" and responsibility for others here because my opinions aren' that popular on this subject and probably never will be. This post was intended to be informational so please take it as such.

I'm wondering, why slashdot.org just doesn't get an AP feed via email like so many other professional news organizations? They have plenty of subscribers, plenty of revenue from their parent OSDN. It would be trivial to hire a competent tech nerd who also happened to be a broadcast/radio journalism major (or graduate) and apply their knowledge to slashdot and other OSDN sites.
If they really want to be taken seriously, a little bit of that plus the cool tech geek stuff would really help this place out.

1) too much clicking. this shouldn't have to be done period, only on signup of the service. 2) crashes. having to use system restore to get back your computer and it's still acceptable (wtf???) 3) having to use their DRM -bs enabled player and it's still acceptable (again, wtf???)
This is not a service, based on your own review, that I would ever be willing to get into. Perhaps if they had a plugin for iTunes, WMP or WinAmp where the drm was transparent with an easy way to store your license in plaintext (gpg signed to your own email address, etc...), yeah - MAYBE.
BUt the fact that this is acceptable to people in general disgusts me. Napster isn't as big as it used to be and never will be with the poor choices they've made.

You can buy CD's anywhere legally and encode them to your hard drive for personal use; so what's the big deal?
