Today, the police arrived with a court order that allowed them to
create a forensic disk image of the austria remailer. This apparently
was on request of the US authorities, related to the Pittsburgh bomb
threats.

Therefore, I had to destroy any existing keys and create new keys (see
below).

What does this mean?

- - The remailer's private keys are compromised, so any message that
was
encrypted to those keys can be decrypted, *if* it was intercepted in
the form it reached the austria remailer.

- - If you've been following best practice and used a chain of
remailers, this chain has been weakened, but probably not broken.

- - Since I've destroyed all existing keys, messages "in flight"
encrypted to those keys will be discarded. I'm sorry about that.

- - You need to update your keyrings before you can include austria in
your chains again

- - Depending on how paranoid you are, you may assume the machine is
backdoored, since the authorities have had access. I will re-install
the machine from trustworthy media, but due to the logistics
involved this will take a few weeks.
