| Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net. |

 Usenet and hushmail
I don't know a whole lot about Usenet.
Before we get to the real question, is Opera Mail a decent newsgroup client?
Anyway, if you were to access Usenet, and more specifically alt.binaries, with a hushmail account, would you be safe?

Re: Usenet and hushmail
Everyone that used to order weed/mushrooms online through "Budmail", (shutdown now), had to use a hushmail account.
No one was ever caught, and hundreds of thousands of people bought from the site. So yeah, secure enough.

Re: Usenet and hushmail
Hushmail doesn't make where you're connecting to anonymous, or anonymize anything. It just uses PGP to encrypt messages. If you're downloading unencrypted messages, then it won't matter.
Don't use hushmail. Setting up a decent mail client like Thunderbird or Evolution to work with GnuPG is worth it, and then you can trust the system.
