It saddens me to find out that Eelbash remailer is openly monitoring and devulging information to the public from what is SUPOSED to be an anonymous remailer. Eelbash admin seems not to understand the fundamentals of running a remailer: 1)your remailer WILL be abused and/or used for purposes you personally disagree with from time to time. DEAL WITH IT: this is called freedom of speech. 2)When this abuse occurs you will recieve complaints or notice it is effecting overall remailer preformance. You BLOCK the abuse targets from delivery to cease abuse. This is called keeping your nose clean whilst maintaining system integrity. 3)You do NOT run SPYWARE (say it 3 times) and call yourself an ANONYMOUS remailer; PERIOD. 4)If you cant take the heat get out of the kitchen. That off my chest: ORANGE will no longer support/accept mail To or From Eelbash remailer. I dont see ANY other way around this problem then to cut all ties to eelbash in order to protect the integrity of ORANGE users anonymity and privacy. This is an unfortunate because I am aware alot of peoples mail will be lost due to this block. My opinion and instinct is that it is better to have this mail lost @ORANGE then monitored @EELBASH. On my end: I will post this notice on rem-ops list, to eelbash admin, and APAS so most remailer users will be aware. This block is effective immediately and will continue until satisfactory evidence is provided that eelbash has stopped this incredible farce of a practice for an anonymous remailer (though I havnt the faintest how this kind of evidence would be furnished). - -Orange Administrator -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP Personal Privacy 6.5.3 iQEVAwUBOV/AwAiZnv2t/C4jAQG9nQgA0eTBQI5CCNHuOPTzQoK/7clgNCrdsQfB iBowN9ClOfCw7l54Ws1nT0mdzYAN+iNe88oHUvIXWuL0LUDFyNVeQHTK8x3L4Mjn 6Nc27X4Cg99oiFb9qOm09UeuWTVlDpZbZ/4+oOUU786xzNONdY0ZCqfOWFegv3c6 s7GOmKHn6hKAZ2HB0Q40PARrlCH/3nYNMktautAG07WTvw6ET5dY2xwkCwmgb98F Kc1wj1J+qUOGZPY0G+Zmgi0GBp82PMcMgGwS7AW/JTTMZAl+pE9kgGLiEy28mU2r xoqMKjuaddmkH8xKgCtxufeS/7jk3cpCxtVvSdGO5LfECY2tjMiiSg== =GSeF -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
