Carnivore can easily recognize it as being just dummy traffic. If you want to succeed at producing some real confusion for Carnivore you should send a sig that looks something like this, but don't send the same sig more than once: -- PRIORITY GQITM MSG NUM DYJ PROWORD CABAL GROUPS 23 SITTR GPUMX EPNTB YEPNT YQLNM QYNKY HROPR PQMAO MWVPO SGTPQ YTPVM PYBNQ QOPXY WCAPM OEOPM PQVID QOMMT GYIIP PXUTR HYLLP HYKMK WUXXX XXXXX I AUTHENTICATE TK -- It is impossible for Carnivore to determine whether something like the above is just a random garbage transmission or whether it is a message carrying information or instructions. You cannot analyze it. Maybe it is just garbage. Maybe it is a message containing information and instructions, and maybe there is someone reading this message and to whom I have securely transmitted a one-time pad by which it can be easily decrypted. The only thing I can feel reasonably sure of is that neither you nor Carnivore knows whether the above is just dummy traffic. Even if I were to say that it is just dummy traffic, how would you or Carnivore know for certain that I am telling the truth?
