Exactly, sociopaths and psychopaths.

You honestly think nobody's tracking you?

Go into the anonymous remailer newsgroup and
search for the court records on Carl Johnson.
The "anonymous remailer community" actually
maintained those records online for years hoping
to use the records to prevent their own arrests.

Check out his story!

Oh good, I'm so glad you didn't notice who
actually runs some of the servers they use,
or the funny things somebody slipped into
the code that refuses to let you avoid
certain servers.

The "anonymous remailer community"
has had a noticeable slowdown after the
Adrian Lamo/Manning/Assange thing.

As if the half of anonymous remailer users
weren't bonafide pedophiles to begin with,
now there a military/intelligence reason to
watch anonymous remailers very carefully.
