> > Which leads me to ask... Which federal agency do YOU work for? Evidently the one in an appropriations fight with the one controlling the Snowden narrative. Although I am sitting on some damning evidence which shows that the ACLU, The Intercept, Wikileaks, and Vice Media are themselves sitting on evidence which shows some blatant violations of civil rights... on the scale of Netflix's Making A Murderer, but the whole web is pretty circumstantial at the moment. And you know how libel laws work. I'm certain it'll come to something eventually.

Electronic Freedom Foundation selective in support of freedom

http://talkingpointsmemo.com/muckraker/how-lieberman-got-amazon-to-drop-wik… The Electronic Frontier Foundation, a group that advocates for Internet freedom of speech by defending court cases, said the axing certainly doesn't violate the First Amendment. But it is, according to senior staff attorney Kevin Bankston, "disappointing." https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2015/12/sheriffs-threats-against-credit-card-… As we wrote about last month, we submitted an amicus brief to the Seventh Circuit arguing that government officials such as Sheriff Dart may not use their positions of authority to coerce companies with express or implied threats of legal liability into taking actions that censor speech—whether online or offline. As we all know, escort services are important, not Wikileaks, whose founder makes use of the CIA's escort service with expected results.

Here’s his post-incarceration archived tweetstream: https://archive.is/J9lZV -- RR "You might want to ask an expert about that - I just fiddled around with mine until it worked..."
