You're naively accepting what this anonymous poster claimed.
The two lists mentioned above were created by folks unhappy with the
anarchic nature of Cypherpunks. Lewis McCarthy created his list,
coderpunks, and Perry Metgzer created his list, cryptography. These
lists date back to around 1994-6...not sure exactly when. I knew that
I did not either Perry or Lewis telling me what I could post and what
I could not post, so I ignored them.
If you retreat to one of these lists, David, it is...a good thing.
People who elect to be in censored lists have made the right decision.
Sounds fair to me.
Good bye. I enjoyed your comments when you were here.
