So the real conspiracy is about who has replaced all the tin foil with aluminum foil? I don't think so. This belief appears to have arisen as a result of a simple misunderstanding. Many people who've heard the same voices you two claim to hear have been diagnosed with tinnitus. Whether or not these diagnoses are accurate, tin probably won't help. It sure is funny about all that aluminum foil though...

Interesting, if true, but I'm more concerned that the mandatory access control of SE Linux, combined with a digital rights management policy, provides a strategy to control the flow of information on the internet. Digital rights management policies require a unique ID for information access that can also provide the "internet DNA" to track users online. Distributing software that's used to restrict access to information under non-restrictive licenses like the GPL seems to be counter-productive. It is inappropriate for the open source community to be co-opted by a strategy that runs counter to their motives. Now that SE Linux has been merged into Linux 2.6, without digital rights management policies, are we waiting for the other shoe to drop? The thing to remember about SE Linux is just because it is merged with the Linux 2.6 kernel does not mean that it is mandatory. It can be removed with a some effort, just like those tin foil hats. -- fedora-selinux-list mailing list fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-selinux-list
