n. A mythical conspiracy accused by spam -spewers of funding anti-spam
activism in order to force the direct-mail promotions industry back onto
paper. Hackers, predictably, responded by forming a Lumber Cartel spoofing
this paranoid theory; the web page is http://come.to/the.lumber.cartel/.
Members often include the tag TINLC ( There Is No Lumber Cartel ) in their
postings; see TINC , backbone cabal and NANA for explanation.
