Publius Enigma Internet Mystery

from The Unanswered Questions Podcast

The Publius Enigma is an Internet phenomenon and an unsolved problem that began with cryptic messages posted by a user identifying only as "Publius" to the unmoderated Usenet newsgroup alt.music.pink-floyd through the Penet remailer, a now defunct anonymous information exchange service. The messenger proposed a riddle in connection with the 1994 Pink Floyd album The Division Bell, promising that the answer would lead to a reward.Guitarist David Gilmour denied any involvement while album artist Storm Thorgerson was bemused. According to drummer Nick Mason, EMI Records were responsible. It remains unclear if the enigma involves a genuinely solvable puzzle as part of an early Internet-based contest or was a convoluted hoax.Contact Info:Gmail: [email protected]: https://twitter.com/crimeunsolvedBlogger: https://theunansweredquestionspodcast.blogspot.comInstagram: mr_unsolved_podcasterYouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@theunansweredquestionspodc9107/featuredhttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/unsolvedpodcast/membershipPodcast Episode: shows.acast.com/the-unanswered-questions-podcast#truecrime #unsolved #mystery Hosted on Acast.
