Subject: Cephalopod
Well, it’s official: yesterday afternoon Bush signed the new FISA “compromise” bill, ending a year of legal wrangling. And while the new legislation doesn’t specifically deal with Cephalopod, we are pretty much in the clear from this point forward.
After all, if Congress is willing to roll over on domestic wiretapping—the very program that prompted the original FISA legislation—I think it’s fair to say that our operation is going to go unchallenged. And, frankly, Cephalopod is too complicated for the man-on-the-street to get worked up about anyhow. Packet sniffing, email monitoring, replication, and retention of all internet traffic—kind of over the head of Ma and Pa AOL, you know?
Of course, the operation is also top secret and unknown to the general public—that helps too ;)
Anyway, to celebrate I thought we could all go to the Ruby Tuesday’s on 15th for Mojitos after work. I have my Prius and will probably head over around 5:30, if anyone wants a ride.
Cheers,
Brett

Hi, all. A few minutes ago I accidentally sent an email message to an email list that is for internal use only. Please DO NOT REPLY TO ALL to this message.
Also, if you could remove the email list from you address book, that would be swell.
Thanks a lot for your cooperation,
Brett

Hey everybody, it’s Brett again. I guess my original message has spawned a couple of different threads. It’s really important that you DO NOT REPLY TO ALL to ANY OF THEM! Each Reply to All, to any of the threads, is going to everyone on the Internet, so it’s pretty important that we nip this in the bud early, as they say.
Thanks everyone. Hopefully this will be the last email you receive on this subject—fingers crossed! :)

Subject: Cephalopod status
Hello everyone. It was nice to see you all at Brett’s farewell party Friday.
Just to give you a status update: Cephalopod is still down. It’s going to take a while to rebuild the database and replace the fried servers. IT says it will probably be out of commission until mid-August, possibly even into September. If anyone was thinking of taking a vacation, now’s the time to do it.
Also, just a heads-up, we have permanently disabled [email protected]. The new address is:
And, obviously, that address is as top secret as the last one was supposed to be.
Thanks,
Paul
