But unlike stego, where the issue is faking the noise, personal fingerprints can be removed from the message more reliably. You just need the right gloves. One way is to use automated translators. They all have an "internal language" and modules that translate to and from it. The internal language is far more restricted than the natural one, so it doesn't leak many aspects of the linguistic fingerprint. Going to the internal form is "lossy" compression. There is no way to recreate the original. The simplest method is an englih-to-english translator. Better method, and thicker gloves, can be used by going through several from/to modules for different languages. In commercial engines the meaning starts to suffer after 3-4 steps but just before that happens the word ordering and use gets completely skewed. Of course, you have to buy the translator and not use the online google/babelfish access.

Remailers and TLAs
Even though I agree this issue is important I wouldn't be surprised if NONE were run by TLAs today and NONE has ever been run by TLAs. We will never get any such answer and therefore these speculations will continue. Personally I think it sounds really stupid when I read comments like "you can only trust remailers from pre 9/11" (these kinds of silly/stupid/dumb-paranoid comments are often seen on A.P.A-S). The reason being really that I think they are too stupid and perhaps doesn't really understand what good it would do them to actually operate a few. I may be wrong I guess. When thinking of these things I also remeber having read several comments by remops that actually have been visited by police. Both in U.S. and abroad. The feeling I got from reading their comments is that the police (in case of U.S. I think it was FBI who was inviolved) actually didn't even know what a remailer was. If (and this is a bif "if") that is true in general amongst FBI agents I don't think th ere's a major risk of beeing flooded by TLA operated remailers any time soon. But who knows.

Its very hard to say who really got caught. Lets see how the attacks on coilation troops progess in iraq. It should give us idea who really is in control. Sarath. __ Do you Yahoo!? New Yahoo!

This is what Google and the ability to see hundreds of various lists and sites is for. I don't even plan on subscribing myself. I just wanted to get the traffic off of cypherpunks. Back when I first joined this list, cypherpunks where known for making news, not reading it. I recognized some addresses posting here recently from other lists that may suggest a revival is possible if we can clean things up a bit. For the most part, the only people who subscribed to the new list are the people who tend to forward news announcements. There seems to be very few consumers (4 out of 7 subscribers on the new list - there's 8 total so far, one person subscribed twice). - VAB -- V.

If you were watching the BBC, you would have thought most of the Iraqi population were outraged by his capture. I think you are suffering from New York Times syndrome "If even the New York Times admits that the kulaks are happy and prosperous under Stalin, that shows you how great the Soviet Union really must be when you discount all that capitalist propaganda." --digsig James A.
