I don't know why you'd need to know who he gets news feeds from. Cancel leakage would be obvious enough to determine who is getting feeds from Karl. I presume you'd complain to a) his internet providers/peers, b) his news feeds that leak cancels, and possibly c) anyone who is known to get a feed from him. And their providers/peers. I'd probably start with MCS which provides Karls service, and go on to good.net, nap.net, etc, presuming Karls boast about MCS not caring to help stop his leakage is true. Then repeat with the sources of the leakages. I think as long as Karls system is completely separate from usenet, it could be fine. His scheme can possibly work if there is never a server that carries both regular Usenet and Karl's feed. But that is an unreasonable proposition. The problem is that someone will want to cross post karls feed into their feed. Remember, the Soviet Coup against Gorbachev failed (in part) because they couldn't manage to partition or shut off usenet news feeds, and news of events in Moscow leaked out. --Dean At 10:13 PM 11/13/1998 -0600, Karl Denninger wrote: >On Fri, Nov 13, 1998 at 09:42:41PM -0600, Edward S.
