I wrote out a fairly detailed response, but I eventually realized that what I want to say sums up to this: A message that goes, "I have this super-private social network for you, use it, find a political cause and organize yourselves" does not seem right to me. IMO, the approach needs to work the other way - build up outrage within the people and then channelize that outrage, using the right online and offline tools. As for encryption, yes I do. My public key dates from '01, and I have had an email certificate (mostly for professional purposes) for at least 8 years now. Just that I don't find many of my emails worth encrypting. :-) Binand -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
