Re: Privacy.LIE - their REAL privacy policy!

Your "admitting" to a set of circumstances that would not apply to 95%
of the people that use the internet. It would invlove millions of
dollars worth of equipment and a serious matter to warrant the very
costly expense of traffic analysis on the scale you describe. In
answer to your comment about being pro-open, I don't have any problem
with that. What I do have a problem with is deception. The kind of
deception that trolls in newsgroups and makes people believe that they
are easily prone to be the subject of logging/traffic analysis by
different organizations when in fact that's not true for 95% of net
users.

For 95% of net users, a good privacy provider that dosen't log the way
that you do is more than enough privacy protection, they are the ones
that don't worry about having millions spent in traffic analysis on
them.

Your remarks do tend to make the reader get used to the fact that logs
are a fact of life if they use certain services like yours, even if you
say that your encrypted connections are not logged, your "maintenance"
logging with analysis, by you yourself, can lead to a detailed account
of who did what - period.

So, if you want to be "the only one to admit" to possibilities, don't
deceive readers that thier all doomed to be logged in one form or
another, and that nothing can be done about it. This is what YOU have
a problem with. Just like a previous post said, it's not only your
way, and a handful of other privacy companies are doing a great job for
the 95% of users that don't fall within your Cotse guidlines of traffic
analysis, which could run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars, if
not in the millions of dollars. You may think your important for this
kind of attention, but your not.
