It's astonishing that you should say this. It is at exactly this time
that soul searching is most appropriate. Now is when you should ask
yourself: Am I doing the right thing? Am I making the world a better
place?
You don't have to convince some devil's advocate. Just convince yourself.
You're about to begin running a remailer. Apparently you haven't done
so before. Well, it should be quite an education. Keep it up for a
year and you'll be more qualified to judge whether this technology is
good or bad, on balance. One thing is certain: if you go into it just
because you think it will be an "interesting project", you won't stay
with it for long.
