zapatista tribal port scan code*

A port scan is not a crime. It is no different in spirit from counting the
windows of a building on a public sidewalk, or observing the number of
doors.
-- EDT, 2001


Chiapas, Mexico - January 3rd, 2000 - the Zapatista Air Force

"bombarded" the federal barracks of the Mexican Army with

hundreds of paper airplanes. Each one carrying a message to

counter the deafening noise created by the soldiers attempts

to silence their protests.

In remembrance of this event the Electronic Disturbance Theater (EDT)

releases a digital translation of the Zapatista Air Force Action:

the *zapatista tribal port scan code.*



The distribution of the source code for the** zapatista tribal port scan
(ZTPS)**

will be followed by the release of a ZTPS Tool Kit on January 15th, 2000

through EDT’s home page.

** zapatista tribal port scan (ZTPS) by EDT**

/* socketChecker -a simple port scanning class-
Opens a socket, checks it for a service, with a time-out.
Returns a String describing either the socket response, or
the result of the attempt to open the socket. Works for
both tcp-ip and udp services. A call to the factory method
checkSocket does it all (see below). Since the method
returns a String object after "time-out" milliseconds, you
might want to put the call *the checkSocket* method in it's
own thread.
*This code is completely free source
*If you download or use this code, please feel compelled to
make any improvements that you might make available to
the public domain.
*Utilize this code at your own risk - port scanning will
sometimes bristle the hairs of some sys admins.
As we know, the only thing a sys admin needs to do is
to complain (regardless of truth, and without responsible investigation),
for an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to pull the plug on a user.
*But if a socket is visible over the *public* Internet,
then a sys admin, (and everyone else), should expect
it to be scanned. A port scan is not a crime. It is no
different in spirit from counting the windows of a
building on a public sidewalk, or observing the number
of doors. If it sets off alarms, then it is the responsibility of
the sys admin to separate the potential threats from poetry,

free vision, or paper airplanes in public places.

Communique' from the Clandestine Revolutionary
Indigenous Committee -
General Command of the Zapatista Army of National
Liberation. Mexico.

January, 2001.

To the People of Mexico:
To the Peoples and Governments of the World:

Brothers and Sisters:

This past December 22 it will have been 3 years since the Acteal killings.
On that day, 3 years ago, 45 children, women, men and old ones, all
indigenous, were massacred by a paramilitary group of Ernesto Zedillo's
government.

Those intellectually responsible for this crime against humanity continue
to go unpunished. The dirty war which made it possible continues. The
counterinsurgency doctrine which inspired it continues still. The
paramilitary structure which carried it out remains untouched. The
military protection of the assassins continues.

Despite what the lavish government publicity campaign says, nothing has
changed. There is nothing in place in Chiapas which would ensure that
Acteal will not be repeated.

For Acteal to be finally put in our country's past, it is necessary for the
truly guilty ones to be punished, it is necessary for the warlike viewpoint
to be finally abandoned and for there to be a serious commitment to the
political path. It is necessary that the paramilitary groups be dismantled,
it is necessary for the foundations of dialogue to be set through the
signals which were demanded.

The EZLN is calling on political, social and non-governmental organizations,
on intellectuals and artists, on religious men and women, on all honest
persons in Mexico and the world, to mobilize in demanding an end to the
policies
which made Acteal possible and the fulfillment of the 3 signals which were
demanded for the renewal of dialogue.

Democracy!
Liberty!
Justice!
