Thanks Peter. I don't know much about him at all, but I like Cryptome very much. If he is able to avoid the threatened takedown then hats off to him. Someone has to make a stand against this fiendish corporate bullying.
I sympathize with him on the privacy issue also. But I suppose we must be careful about how privacy is used. I don't know if you watched the BBC4 "On Expenses" drama last night, but the thought of Parliamentarians using privacy laws to override the freedom of information law in order to conceal their corrupt and gross expenses, was enough to make steams escape from my ears.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
