Just to check, you weren't asked to leave the BadPhorm forums were you over the crunchgate affair, that was the best post I've ever seen. BadPhorm is a boreing place without your posts.
If it was up to me I'd say get the hell back on BadPhorm, we've got some dirty scoundrels that need rooting out.

No I wasn't asked to leave.. If I was I'd probably still be there quietly defying
Re: the crunchgate affair, yes it was me and I kinda guess that everyone else knows it was me. I signed the message as 'BadPhorm' by mistake, I left off the 'ula', a slip up. I've got no problems with calling Kunt Ertugrul and Shatis Scleparis criminals, I don't give a ph~ck about slandering or libeling those c~nts. However they will never sue 'anyone' for libel for two reasons mainly.
1) They are criminals so by default it isn't libel.
2) They wouldn't pursue me in court because it would bring too much attention to their sneaking around in the murky sh~t they are floating in, that is Phorm/121Media sh~t.
Coming back to why I left Badphorm.co.uk (left as in not daily posting) I see this anti-phorm project as two distinct sub-projects, for me.
1) The ongoing public debate and organising a wider awareness of the threat Phorm (and their **** ISP partners) present to free British people through profiling and sifting over personal data.
2) My contribution effort as I see it, is to organise and spread information about how people can defend themselves through the use of encryption technology. I'm not talking about some grand plan to turn everyone into a techie with a complete understanding of cyberspace self-defense, but a basic level of awareness of the tools and techniques available.
I was planning on compiling a Linux Live-CD similar to Knoppix but aimed at the Phormoid privacy problem... And calling it something like "Phormonix"
The problem with sub-project no.1 with regard to posting on a place like BadPhorm is that I tend to rub people up the wrong way, they don't seem to get my sardonic brand of satire. Yes I am quite rude and over the top and this is likely to upset some of the other posters, my guess is that most people like to live in a cordial, friendly none abrasive environment all speaking polite parliamentary language. (and all this time Phormscum are laughing their b~llocks off at the quaint opposition). I say we should round the ph~ckers up with pitch forks then hang them upside down by their testicles (but hey I'm a progressive liberal). But seriously I feel I will not be able to tame my vociferous minority voice without continually falling foul of Jim's AUP.
I am obviously in the top league table for number of posts deleted or mod'd and I'm quite happy I was instrumental in getting the Phorm shill and lameduck troll 'Hamster Wheel' K/B dispatched from BadPhorm. Anyhow I think it might be best to setup my own phpBB and rant and rave over there. You've got my webaddress so keep checking! LOL
Btw I've posted this to CF forum and BadPhorm for fun but withheld your nim hope that hasn't set the cat amongst the pigeons for you.
