Anybody up for a discussion of the present and likely threats to remailers?
Some possibilities that occur offhand. No idea as to how important they are as
threats. How likely / threatening do you think these things are? Others?
requiring isps to keep logs
TLA running remailers
computers of remaailer operators targetted with trojans to get keys
legislation requiring keys or some kind of backdoor for all encrypted comm
systems.
Ratcheting up the paranoia:
backdoor in windows (Mr. Gates, for reasons of national security, we would
like future versions of windows to incorporate.....in turn, we will see to it that
the present legal problems of windows are made to go away).
backdoor in intel chips (Mr. Ottelini, in the interest of national
security...can promise....80 million government pcs will use intel, otherwise...)
backdoor in some other computer component - a hard drive, a video card, a
sound card - some often-used component that has, somehow, been turned into a
trojan (Mr. Yamashita, your company here in Osaka will get very favorable import
terms if you will cooperate...)

I don't blame him when he was dealing with the second worst remop ever.
I'd rather have Champerty than a dozen psychotic Frogs.

Does anyone know what happened to the above remailer, it was back for
a while then disappeared again?
IIRC, they were compromised by the Italian authorities, so they shut it
down both the remailer and the nymserver.
