+<h2>Anonymous Payment by Phone</h2>
+
+<p>by Richard Stallman</p>
+
+<p>Here is an idea for an anonymous payment system that would be useful
+for some applications.</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>The seller sets up a phone number that charges N dollars per minute to
+any caller.</li>
+
+<li>The customer chooses a code, calls that number (which requires paying
+N dollars), and enters the code. A voice-generation system speaks the
+code back so the customer can confirm it.</li>
+
+<li>That code represents a payment of N dollars. The customer enters it
+in a web site, or a kiosk, and it constitutes payment for whatever.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>It should be possible to do this using a phone card on a payphone
+or anyone else's telephone.</p>
