Snowden leak considered consequential
by professor rat 26 Sep '21

26 Sep '21

I would argue that the Snowden leak was consequential in at least two important ways 1) It prompted the Conyer-Amash law push that only just failed, and... 2) It helped the rise of the celebrity, millionaire journalist bubble ( Julian, Glenn, Alex Jones...) I don't see that sort of deep meaning in the Vault 7 case. But if there's a consensus among national-security journalists that it was terribly important...I may have to defer to their collective national-security wisdom. Meh.

Vault Seven leaks actionable?
by professor rat 26 Sep '21

26 Sep '21

I think they're like everything else WL has produced* - hugely unimportant and irrelevant. "Noise" ( List members will be familiar with Noise from Gramps regular garbage scow load-dumps ) zachsdorfman · 14m Replying to @kevincollier Thanks, Kevin. Really appreciate it. I think it’s particularly interesting to look back on Vault 7 and its effects. They have been perennially overshadowed by the 2016 Democratic Party leaks, but they were incredibly consequential. Well, if you say so, Zach. *Its Guccifer material being the exception that could prove the rule - IF it decided 2016!
