are they really looking for aliens with the SETI program?

I don't mean to be paranoid, but everyone & their mother is starting
to see the benefits of distro, and other distro systems are putting
bugware, spyware, etc into their code, and misusing peoples cancer
units for anthrax units, for example.

how are we sure that seti follows the pure faith?

if it was completely open source i might install it again. but the
line between legitimate software and trojans has blurred in recent
years.

there needs to be a trustable trust system, that can prove that the
trust that they prove is trustworthy. if you catch my drift.

Cancer units for anthrax units? I'll trade you one carcinoma unit
for three anthrax units. :^/

You can only be sure of a few things, death and taxes stand out.

There's some truth to this.

What did Mulder say, "trust no one", or something like that.

It's the only way to be safe.

Don't give them ideas! Hehe.
Next you will be seeing tradable units, futures,.... on the stock market.

In what distributed system has any of this really occurred?

Oh you know, that one that did cancer and anthrax on the same distro.
I *used* to use it nothing more complicated than a hidden opt-in
option...

The reason I ask is that the only distributed processing company I'm aware
of that has done both cancer and anthrax projects is Unitied Devices. There
was nothing the least bit hidden or underhanded about the way they handled
either project. They have full disclosure on their website and a very
detailed EULA which everyone who joins must accept or they can't install the
UD agent software at all. (UD uses a project model very much like BOINC --
not surprising since UD, BOINC, and even S@h share a common software
architect.)

Yes, seti is a conspiracy. Your neighbor's cat is the ringleader. They
won't stop until you are brought down. I didn't say this, I was never
here.
