Especially if one were more concerned about the hoops and wasted time than about privacy, anonymous accounts and MASQUE proxies are just more hoops and, IIR, hoops on a per-access basis. Actually, the last time I looked, Google didn't require any real authentication to create one of their accounts. If that is still true, wouldn't it be easier just to create a special, mostly-bogus, Google account and use it to access the IETF material rather than fussing with MASQUE proxies, etc. Definitely not real secrecy, but, for the many situations for which that is overkill... best, john
