Mime-Version: 1.0 Date: Wed, 31 May 1995 13:25:39 +0800 To: GovAccess@well.com From: jwarren@well.com (Jim Warren) Subject: GovAccess.131: net-based action; privacy, the Complete PGP FAQ Sender: owner-govaccess@well.com Precedence: bulk Status: Beginning Irresistable Grassroots Political Action Shortly hereafter, I will begin a series detailing the nuts and bolts of how to pursue net-based, computer-aided grassroots political action, and will use GovAccess to help facilitate it - all of it being available to anyone/everyone who wishes to use it, even those with whom I most ardently disagree. Gasp! - I actually maintain the fantesy that the body politic, given adequate information on which to base reasoned deliberation, adequate time for sound decisions, and adequately connected to empower and coordinate irresistable citizen action, will - in fact - act responsibly. It is the fundamental assumption of democracy. I don't know that it's true, but the only alternative is a dictatorship to guide and direct otherwise-incompetent peasant/citizens, and I distrust dictatorial benovalence more than I distrust the People. --jim &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& EPIC's Personal Privacy Protection Resources Date: 30 May 1995 12:41:46 -0400 From: "Marc Rotenberg" EPIC now offers a home page with practical tools for voice privacy (Nautilus), Email and file privacy (PGP), disk encryption, and anonymous remailers. http://epic.org/privacy/tools.html Marc Rotenberg (Rotenberg@epic.org) * 202-544-9240 (tel) Electronic Privacy Information Center * 202-547-5482 (fax) 666 Pennsylvania Ave, SE, Suite 301 * ftp/gopher/wais cpsr.org Washington, DC 20003 * HTTP://epic.digicash.com/epic &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& The Complete PGP FAQ - In Its Entirety as its Author Requires Date: Sat, 4 Mar 1995 15:23:45 -0800 [From a reliable source, but it's PGP-signed for authentication, anyway. --jim] Below is a rather long article that is definitive on this subject, in its entirety: -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- WHERE TO GET THE PRETTY GOOD PRIVACY PROGRAM (PGP) 14 Feb 1995 |-----------------+---------------------+---------------------------------| | Platform(s) | Latest Version | Distribution File Names | |-----------------+---------------------+---------------------------------| | DOS, Unix, | Viacrypt PGP 2.7 | disk sets | | Mac, Windows, | | | | or WinCIM/CSNav | | | |-----------------+---------------------+---------------------------------| | DOS, Unix, VAX, | MIT PGP 2.6.2 | pgp262.zip (DOS + docs) | | others | | pgp262s.zip (source) | | | | pg262s.zip source on CompuServe | | | | pgp262s.tar.gz (source) | | | | pgp262s.tar.Z (source) | | | | pgp262dc.zip (documentation) | | | | pg262d.zip (docs on CompuServe) | |-----------------+---------------------+---------------------------------| | Macintosh | MIT PGP 2.6 | MacPGP2.6.sea.hqx (binary+docs) | | | | macpgp26.hqx (same as above) | | | | MacPGP2.6.src.sea.hqx (source) | | | | macpgp26.src (same as above) | | | | MacPGP2.6-68000.sea.hqx (binary)| | | | mcpgp268.hqx (same as above) | |-----------------+---------------------+---------------------------------| | Mac Applescript | | MacPGP2.6.2.beta125.sea.hqx | | | | MacPGP2.6.2.beta125.src.sea.hqx | |-----------------+---------------------+---------------------------------| | Amiga | PGP 2.6.2 Amiga 1.4 | pgp262-a14-000.lha | | | | pgp262-a14-020.lha | | | | pgp262-a14-src.lha | |-----------------+---------------------+---------------------------------| | Atari | Atari PGP 2.6.1 | pgp261st.zip | | | | pgp261b.lzh | |-----------------+---------------------+---------------------------------| | Non-USA version | PGP 2.6.i from | pgp26i.zip | | to avoid RSAREF | Stale Schumacher | pgp26is.zip | | license. | | pgp26is.tar.gz | |_________________|_____________________|_________________________________| VIACRYPT PGP Viacrypt has versions of PGP complete with licenses for commercial use of the RSA and IDEA encryption algorithms.

Don't export PGP from the USA except to Canada, or from Canada except to the USA, without a license. 2. If you are in the USA, use either Viacrypt PGP (licensed for commercial use) or MIT PGP using RSAREF (limited to personal, noncommercial use). Outside of the USA, where RSA is not patented, you may prefer to use a version of PGP (2.6.i) that doesn't use RSAREF to avoid the restrictions of that license. 3. If you are in a country where the IDEA cipher patent holds in software (including the USA, Canada, and some countries in Europe), make sure you are licensed to use the IDEA cipher commercially before using PGP commercially. (No separate license is required to use the freeware PGP for personal, noncommercial use). For direct IDEA licensing, contact: Ph. Baumann, IDEA Lizenz Ascom Tech AG Postfach 151 CH-4502 Solothurn Switzerland Tel ++41 65 242828, Fax ++41 65 242847. 4. Don't sell PGP in North America unless you are reselling for Viacrypt (because they have an exclusive marketing agreement on Philip Zimmermann's copyrighted code). 5. If you modify PGP (other than porting it to another platform or adapting it to another compiler), don't call it PGP (TM) or Pretty Good Privacy (TM) without Philip Zimmermann's permission.
