C'punks -- When I told a friend about the alt.drugs.pot cultivation newsgroup and suggested that he use an anonymous remailer to post to the group, he laughed and said, "Who do you suppose runs the remailers? ATF, FBI, DEA, that's who!" Gee, it makes sense to this paranoid. Does anyone know the answer? Specifically, how can we choose a trusted remailer? Cheers (?), Charley

If you can't trust yourself, who can you trust? Ummm, if you run your own remailer, and don't get lots of people to use it, then traffic analysis will reveal that you are the sender quite quickly. It will pretty much make everything in the chain before your remiler useless. If you send your message through remailers a, b, c, and d like this: you -> a -> b -> c -> d -> alt.drugs.and-other-various-horsemen and only you use c, then your effective chain is: someone who could only be you -> d -> alt.drugs.and-other-various-horsemen This chain is weak indeed.
