Brit Intel Telling Tales
9 February 2001, 2:35 PM EST. Cryptome has just received word that the British government is telling UK newspapers that an arrangement has been reached with Cryptome's ISP, Verio, to yank "Enquiry: The Killing Years in Ireland": http://cryptome.org/fru-walshaw.htm We have not heard from Verio, and the file remains available. The British government is threatening to injunct any UK publisher intending to reveal information in the file which was received from an anonymous source and names a controversial intelligence agent runner in Northern Ireland. The named officer is the center of a major investigation of orchestrated murders assisted by British intel. The Brits are telling newspapers that publication on Cryptome does not mean the information is widely available, thus justifying British publication. Cryptome will not remove the file except in response to a US court order because it is our belief that nothing in the file is illegal under US law.

I suppose it would be too much to hope that some spammer scumbag would spam that one file to all .co.uk addresses in its db as a joke.... -- ----------------------Kaos-Keraunos-Kybernetos--------------------------- + ^ + :Surveillance cameras|Passwords are like underwear.

That content is now available to MojoNation users at http://localhost:4004/id/6qXdpawuD27YMjS3ZVNZG6WRbP8/; it's indexed using keywords which include "FRU" and "stakeknife" which should make it easy to find within Mojo, no matter what happens to Cryptome's copy. -- Greg Broiles gbroiles@netbox.com PO Box 897 Oakland CA 94604

More to the point, are there any free web page sites in the UK? Might as well give _them_ all copies.... Thanks! Bill Bill Stewart, bill.stewart@pobox.com PGP Fingerprint D454 E202 CBC8 40BF 3C85 B884 0ABE 4639

Still visible from UK on Monday morning. Oh whoops, does that mean I have a copy on my hard disk? What a pity... Ken Brown John Young wrote:
