NODE c20b167cANNOUNCEMENT: ALICE'S ADDRESS REVEALED.
anonymous-remailer@shell.portal.comSun, 3 Dec 1995 13:36:14 +0800
As I promised, I've now opened a channel so that anyone who wants to
can send Alice de 'nonymous email. I can now be reached via
an455120@anon.penet.fi. Mail sent to Alice de 'nonymous at that
address will get to me, and I will do my best to reply to you as well,
but I can't guarantee, anything.
And before I get attacked for wasting bandwidth, I've got a deal to
make it all worthwhile.
A temporary break from GAK talk ... a pointer to a truly HOT website.
Here's just a small sample of what you'll find there:
:| ELIMINATING LIMBO
:|
:| "So the pope eliminated Limbo, did you hear?" she says
:| "What?"
:| "You know the pope, right, well he eliminated Limbo..."
:| "When?"
:| "I don't know, a while ago."
:| "Well that means we're fucked..."
:| "You got it."
:| "What's Limbo for?"asks Jessica
:| "That's where all the people that were around before they had the
:| chance to get the word of christ get to go...and unbaptized babies
:| that die early..."
:|
:| "It's not as good as Heaven, but it beats the hell out of the other
:| options."
:| "How can he just eliminate it like that?"
:| "Cause he's the pope..."
Check all of this out and MORE at the SCARED SACRED site. You'll be
able to read the pope's "LETTER TO ALL THE WOMEN OF THE WORLD".
:| "What he wrote a letter to all the women of the world? Man, his direct
:| mail expenses must be huge!"
:| "Yeah the people in the Vatican are just freaking out..."
But you have to be running NETSCAPE.

I don't think that was a smart thing to do. Your real email is now
registered in some database in Finland - how difficult would it be to
retrieve it? From what I remember organizations like Scientology had no
problem getting real emails from anon.penet.fi when they reported that
anXXXXXX was causing trouble... couldn't the same be done for your account?
If that single system becomes compromised one day all the accounts could be
posted on some web page somewhere and it would be a simple matter of
looking you up! Signing your message with PGP and using Mixmaster would
give yourself an identity while still keeping you anonymous.

Not _nearly_ as hard as breaking/finding an appropriately encrypted key.
I for one am not going to even bother with the penet address unless the
posts come from there. After all, it's a forgery anyway. The real Alice
already posted a PGP key. I wouldn't be reading this list if I were
going to fall over for a simple impersonation.
Of course, if our impersonating, trusts-penet-not-PGP-coworkers-think-
of-everything-but-a-packet-sniffer Alice were to post from penet,
then everyone (including procmail ;) would have to believe his claims
of pseudo-identity.
I must say, L.D. is really falling all over himself this time. Maybe
he's just trying to make people *think* he's a cryptobungler, so that he
can keep his other tentacles with whom he converses out of suspicion.
