And why did this thread which started in a different newsgroup appear
here?
I also wondered where <nobody@yamn.paranoici.org>'s message came from,
no sign of a x-post, or previous group
The original was in alt.privacy.anon-server
Yes, and 'D' *moved* it to this group (comp.mobile.android) - i.e. he
did not cross-post it - without saying so. Typical troll behaviour. No
