Frog displays his megalomaniacal hatred. He uses 9/11 as a pretext for this hateful post wanting Sassaman to die in front of a firing squad. Frog's PGP sig checks GOOD. http://www.google.com/groups?q=firing+squad+group:alt.privacy.anon-server+author:frog-admin&hl=en&lr=lang_en&ie=UTF-8&newwindow=1&safe=off&scoring=r&selm=ZHHXK0ZD37779.460162037%40Gilgamesh-frog.org&rnum=1 From: Frog-Admin (Anonymous-Remailer@See.Comment.Header) Subject: Re: [ANNOUNCE] Frog Block - A Bad Idea Newsgroups: alt.privacy.anon-server Date: 2003-06-07 02:07:59 PST -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- On 7 Jun 2003, Frog wrote: >So I'm with you that blocking frog is a bad idea.

It's more trouble than it's worth. The "address in headers" is far from optimal. But it is the only temporary solution I found out (by lack of time), see news:6Q8Q9M8Y37779.4300462963@Gilgamesh-frog.org until I develop a webpage and a full strategy. Netcops are Usenet's plague. Some have automated tools to spam the abuse@ and upstream's abuse@, and come short of trying to put .net .com .org offline. The Gardner case sent me one message for *each* post he didn't like, until my abuse@ auto-disabled. Putting netcops offline is just as important for netizens' comfort as running a remailer. In the case of a Gardner, with educational duties and the potential to sprout off his ways, I consider that having him axed is just as valuable as running a non-middleman remailer for one month. It took me *MONTHS* to have Roadrunner cancel the account of a flooder. If it takes *YEARS* to have Gardner axed, so be it. When you have "pseudo-remops" who bend over because "it is an educational institution", you can imagine how they will behave if a real TLA asks them to "play nicely". You don't have to "imagine" anything, BTW: Sassaman's behaviour after 2001/09/11 was always an embarrassement for me. When journalists asked me: "What about our communications' reliability if remops turn turkey like Sassaman, as soon as there is an international problem, at the moment we need them most. Aren't your remailers just toys for peacetime, completely useless in war times" I used to "Err, ...". Now, I say: "This Sassaman guy was not a remop, and will never be". In older, harsher times, DESERTION led the COWARD to the FIRING SQUAD. But the radical punishment obviously had some merits: clean the scene from opportunists. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: N/A iQEVAwUBPuGpJ4DgT488d3zFAQFWbAgAq+sUC2uwutGo/1K2uJjqQ+maizRA2iL2 Tfjp63QRZhzN0Sza6an0nfu2OShddfbunpPisBtIFp1G2JSBzoXZYV8HM9afwuYf d7n7AR6PNOQQeVzvRMUQNhI9OH8mFE8VZIRUdESEwtu/kvREDxuVxBHMMioGDGKm HXkSvFjnqX0neeu8hV0+z3na5biRI7VllrrhihLKn97tFcVB8cgKLTOHbLCs0aAD pOLFXUyzdzQYzkRCDZiUAS8bpa6Fw26IRY8E6vV7mP6kxO12M69Mft6h70n09qg6 RBOBJyO6zc7QZd2clHv0Gqcrtp2QgraT6Lxn4FRJjKq8ri2fvDzK8Q== =yowe -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
