-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The slow beginnings of Infopeace -- a working mission statement: http://www.infopeace.com/papers/mission.html -- Restrictions on liberty--- pacification, censorship, disarmament, cryptography key recovery, forced financial equalization, state monopolization, state espoused philosophies, and so on--- obstruct the path to peace. Historically, groups like the Bolsheviki lie with lofty, idealist rhetoric to mobilize the people behind them as a utility for personal power gain, and then double-cross them in the end. Forced social control insults the human spirit, increases the anger and chaotic unrest of the people, and perpetuates the need for armament in defense of peace and freedom. Through access to instant communication and the world's wealth of information via tools like the Internet, we can each realize our potentials as individuals and together strive to build a better world. [...] There'll be more. The real trick is going to be proving that last sentence. But perhaps toolusers and time will do that for us. - -hedges- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP for Personal Privacy 5.5.3 iQA/AwUBNZ+9XjXfa81vcydSEQKnzwCfShcL1A56RfJBlGDdckFGPi9YjCAAoJUa dYfxZ41dstFiACF2o94Bd/M0 =ybJ3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
