I'm absolutely sure there's a lot I left out and even more I don't know. :) AP>> methods to scramble the pgp message a bit so as to hide the AP>> originator and recipient but it would probably fall AP>> fast to real cryptanalysis unless i was able to implement a good AP>> one-time pad into the mix. Well... traffic analysis is far removed from cryptanalysis and actually decoding a message. It's more for gaining a general "look and feel" of the people using encryption. FWIW, before the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, US cryptanalysts recorded changes in the numbers and sizes of our enemy's encrypted message traffic. They were certain something big was about to happen, but nobody thought for a second it would be an attack on american soil. :( AP>> have you ever been subscribed to cypherpunks? i was for a while and AP>> learned quite a bit until the s/n ratio got too high to justify the My SysOp gives me a VERY good discount in trade for a few minor problem solving programming jobs here and there, so I really try to keep my incoming internet mail to a minimum. The "regular" stuff comes in via satellite, and my outgoing posts don't amount to all that much, but I would hate to abuse the privilege by subscribing to a list that might send his download time through the roof, or cost me a couple cents a piece. :( Maybe next fall when I HOPE to have enough $$$ stashed away to go back to school (again). Working on a degree a course at a time is a real pain... but I have to work to attend, and to attend full time I'd have to all but quit working. I like my internet better with a UNIX flavor anyway. ;) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 Comment: -=[ Privacy Through Random Acts Of Encryption ]=- iQCVAwUBL8vRXekStfMM4BMZAQGMxgP/dvuOKyjaSyf/wxfZSFkSSw+ynGA7U1Kw kocd7AJVrz9wAVA/E/P5YhPIVC5rzigS2mRBi7nqUNWKJD3wD5oGndiS9CWZX48+ bev6qkKw00JS8CT7YuWGcdlEC0eRMMBnYh/cV7ZB3pTPA+Fngyep33ILlRZLk6gE qVLGPRwSzno= =GFXj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --- WILDMAIL!/WC v4.00 # Origin: Meadville Online (1:2601/551.0) 201434369420143436942014343694201434369420143436942014343694201
