I haven't visited the site in years but remember reading it every week back in the 90's, early 2000's. What I recall thinking was how it put th USA "freedoms" into sharp perspective compared to most of the rest of the world, including the UK (where I was). Some of the things he posted (the "eye-balling" secret sites, for instance) were things he'd be in jail for elsewhere. Or worse. Brave guy and it took some gumption.

Indeed, I love opening it now and then and it is easy to see these people do work of monumental importance. Once gets the feeling of being on a website which actually matters, and has ever kept the spirit of 90s web activism.
