Forwarded-by: Keith Bostic <bostic@bsdi.com> From: dawson@world.std.com (Keith Dawson) ||| Become an international arms trafficker in one click ||| This page [11] sports a button labeled "Click here to become an Interna- tional Arms Trafficker." Clicking on that button causes three lines of perl code to be sent to an ISP in Antigua; the code implements a patented RSA encryption algorithm. You can optionally give your name and email ad- dress for addition to the list of known arms traffickers [12]. At this writing it numbers 14 names. Two use handles and/or an email anonymizer; one is a spoof (Willian Jefferson Clinton <president@whitehouse.gov>); and eleven are very brave or very foolhardy.
