   All the bullshit aside about header length, etc., nowhere did you   
   prove QSL is not secure enough for Usenet anon posting;   
      
   As I pretty much stated earlier, the average QSL user doesn't have to   
   know a damn thing about RFC or MIME or much of anything else except   
   how to download remailer updates to keep QSL working.  There isn't an   
   iota of proof otherwise. (Let's not cover the efail problem again.   
   That's a PGP/Mime problem, not a QSL problem. Besides, I did show the   
   "cure" for that.)   
      
   A properly used QSL STILL WORKS!  No sicko Usenet troublemaker has a   
   chance to uncover your id and try to ruin your online or private life   
   with lies or threats. Of course, if a QSL user has previously told   
   much about his life pre their QSL usage, then repeats some of that   
   info while using QSL, it could enable a stalker to tack those pieces   
   of info together and come to a conclusion as to the anon posters'   
   identity.  Also, one's online personal - peculiar - way of conversing   
   could give one's id away to a sicko stalker.  However,, that is NOT a   
   QSL fault. It's a human fault.   
      
   So, quit your bullcrap about line length, MIME, 64 bit, etc.  No   
   piece of software is made to please all by doing everything for   
   everybody.*  QSL's prime function is anonymity. It STILL does that.   
      
   *(Except Microsoft shit. That's why it's all a pain in the ass for   
   the average user.)
