Before reading this, I recommend reading my first post raising concerns
that the alleged GCHQ Cryptome slide from could be a mockup
<http://that1archive.neocities.org/subfolder1/gchq-cryptome-slide.html>,
followed by my disclosure of Cryptome's leaked user logs
<http://that1archive.neocities.org/subfolder1/cryptome-leaked-logs.html>.

After refusing to comment
<http://web.archive.org/web/20151009170831/https:/twitter.com/Cryptomeorg/status/651652489704554497>,
denying it, accusing it of being disinfo
<http://web.archive.org/web/20151009170829/https:/twitter.com/Cryptomeorg/status/651838022909054978>,
accusing me of stealing data
<http://web.archive.org/web/20151007134316/https:/twitter.com/Cryptomeorg/status/651751155962396674>,
accusing me of being a newbie advertising for a spy job
<http://web.archive.org/web/20151009170826/https:/twitter.com/Cryptomeorg/status/651890295072755712>,
declaring that it was "a campaign" against them
<https://cpunks.org/pipermail/cypherpunks/2015-October/009681.html>,
accusing me of faking data
<http://web.archive.org/web/20151008125804/https:/twitter.com/Cryptomeorg/status/651777707873837056>,
declaring that all logs leak and they pay for the internet
<http://web.archive.org/web/20151009170824/https:/twitter.com/Cryptomeorg/status/652067337621929984>,
and deleting my post
<https://twitter.com/NatSecGeek/status/651907692081115137> to the
Cryptome mailing
list <https://cpunks.org/pipermail/cypherpunks/2015-October/009684.html>
alerting
them to the leak, Cryptome has acknowledged that the leaked logs I found
were legitimate. John Young/Cryptome then thanked me, which is apology
enough for all the accusations.
