 So...does Mr Young want to describe the FBI non/encounter?

 but I've been out of town and the hotmail account barfed up 
 most recent 
 posts.)
 
 What I don't yet fully grasp is why they bother. I suppose 
 there are the 
 following, but I suspect there's one key thing in their minds:
 
 1) Scope out potential sources of arrestability.
 2) Intimidate into straighten up and fly right
 3) Pre-BB or not so-BB-work: Readily available weapons, 
 etc...in case of 
 raid?
 4) Just sniffing out the orietation/motivations...ie, raghead or 
 non-raghead?
 
 Of the above I consider 3) Unlikely, 2) Not superlikely, 1) 
 Fairly likely 
 and 4) Most probable.

No, almost the opposite. I propose that any 'Cypherpunk' can declare himself 
to be leader and make 'official statements' at any time. Of course, others 
can (and most probably will) choose to ignore the official statement, or 
even declare himself to be leader and 'officially' rescind that statement 
and/or issue a completely contradictory statement. This will be particularly 
useful when getting (for instance) public interest to move elsewhere.

For instance, it might be usefulto have an official statement ready if/when 
the Cryptome press starts poking around Cypherpunks:

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Cypherpunks is a collection of diverse individuals dedicated to preserving 
the freedoms that all Americans value. As part of this effort, Cypherpunks 
periodically analyzes the systems used by terrorists and other enemies of 
freedom in an attempt to strengthen such systems and prevent their abuse. 
Indeed, Cypherpunks has good reason to believe that there are large cells of 
terrorists and other Men With Guns scattered throughout the nation, even in 
the DC Beltway area.

Or, perhaps there's a Suicide Girl you've been stalking...erh, I mean 
trying to impress. You might try:

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Major Variola (Retired) was recently elected to be the President/Chief 
Executive Offiicer/King of the Cypherpunks Group(TM). Variola was considered 
by all to have not only formidable intellectual powers, but a large-ish 
penis as well. All members of the Cypherpunks list have promised to act upon 
any official statement by Variola, without delay or question, and around the 
world are toasting the new era of his leadership. All hail Variola.

or
Dear Mr Mohammed:
I am particularly interested in hearing more about your offer to transfer 
funds to an eGold account. Please send the money right away, and rest 
assured that you will have the full support of all members of the 
Cypherpunks list.

RE: Another John Young Sighting

2004-08-23 Thread John Young
The FBI visit took place in November 2003. Here's an account:


http://cryptome.org/fbi-cryptome.htm

The John Stewart piece excerpted an AP-TV clip taped on 
August 16 which was a supplement to an AP story about FBI
harassment of potential RNC protestors. 

AP, like ABC News, confused the unrelated November 
visit with the August RNC visits. What got their attention
were Cryptome's aerials and maps -- red-team exposure
of vulnerabilities around Madison Square Garden, and
our accusation of NYC security by obscurity. No feds or 
LEs have inquired about those obvious weaknesses.

During interviews we've tried to explain this but that
didn't mean shit to the interviewers who were looking for 
people to brand anarchists who had been smeared by FBI
visits. Why are you helping terrorists, they chant.

We had no contact with the Daily Show. And didn't use
the term anarchist in interviews although several interviewers
urged it.

We told one interviewer that anarchism was too mild for
our intention to undermine civilization, to rid the earth of
humanity, for the planet to shrivel into nothingness, to
accept that the desire to be god was a useless passion. 

Oh shit, he said, you're a Sartrean.

Merde, oui.

Re: Another John Young Sighting

2004-08-21 Thread John Young
That was a surprise and I missed it. Saw the re-run just
now. Pretty funny, ISTM.

The clip was from an AP TV piece which was taped
just before the recent AP story. One day a still photographer
and video guy came to do a follow-up to a telephone interview
by Tom Hays, the AP reporter. No fanfare like the ABC
News gang. The two were in and out in 20 minutes. Each
carried his own equipment, the TV guy packing a heavy
shoulder camera. No lighting, no rigging, a mic, a recorder,
the camera.

He asked a couple of questions, said just talk, so I did.
He said turn off the radio. Shot the barking carcass. He said
walk down the corridor, don't talk. He shot a couple of scrolling 
screens, packed up, took off.

The still camera guy was the only journalist over recent
days who showed press ID, wore it around his neck. He 
was a black man, so it figures. He said, without prompting,
you know it's amazing how people let the press into
their homes and offices, no questions asked. We could
be cops or feds and nobody'd know. He said a couple of
guys showed up at his home while the baby-sitter and
his daughter were alone, had talked their way past the
doorman, said they were cops, but showed no ID. The
baby-sitter said show me ID. The guys said we don't
need to. The babysitter said go to hell and slammed 
the door. The next day, the photog called the precinct
to see if its cops had come. Precinct said nobody from
here went there, but maybe they were from another
jurisdiction. He said he never learned who they were
or why they came.

A black women reporter came a couple of days ago,
showed no ID but mesmerizing giant hooters in a deep-cut 
blouse. Don't remember what I told her, her name or
who she worked for. Fought hard to look at her eyes,
I think.
