Two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl: My friendship with Julian Assange
Going by this report Asshat has entirely renounced cypherpunk revolution and hates crypto-anarchism. He's now a registered journalist / publisher in a Military-Entertainment-Complex where the media are precisely half the problem. It might be different if he had expressed solidarity for jailed C-punks like CJ, Jim Bell and myself. We could then reciprocate with genuine emotion and moral power. But he washed his hands of the anarchist revolution. Maybe a hot scoop could have saved him. Something world-historical like the Watergate stories of Woodstein. All I see in that dept is some alleged CIA hacking tools files that he appears to be with-holding as a bargaining chip. A shabby testament to anything he once advertised as ' Cypherpunk Revolution ". Asshat could get some short-term, limited tactical support should he graymail the USG Otherwise there's no value proposition in supporting him. He's also a leech, a thief, a liar and sex-criminal - so that doesn't help. Sooner or later he will answer to us so probably the best way out is Jeff Epsteins way out. A quick death is preferable to ' the justice of the barbarians ". Wikileaks is also dead - untimely then - untimely now - untimely forever Good riddance
