No,
It is not difficult to find somewhere (Anguilla?) where remailers and
cryptography are far less likely to be restricted than elsewhere, the US
knows the pointlessness of trying to enforce proxy censorship services,
so does most everywhere else since the XS4ALL fiasco, there is no way
they can stop US citizens sending mail through mixmasters in say
Anguilla, or some other small independent country, for example IOM.

I agree, but you don`t realise that once cryptography is spread far
enough there can be no restricting it`s use. The law is an ass.
I think that finally the poloticians in D.C, London, Berlin and all the
other major capitals have caught on, and realised that open availability
of anonymity, security and strong crypto can only lead to crypto anarchy,
they are *scared*, this time they are no longer do-gooding idiots, they
are out to cover their own backs...
