schestowitz | This seems troubling: "Taking down a site because it might possibly be subject to a DDoS attack in the future? How does that make sense? We were confused enough when EveryDNS claimed that getting hit by a DDoS violated its terms of service, but its even more confusing to think that the remote possibility that at some date in the future you might get hit by a DDoS is a terms of service violation." | Dec 26 14:50 |

schestowitz | MinceR: :-p | Dec 26 14:55 |
schestowitz | It's from weeks ago | Dec 26 14:55 |
schestowitz | Did not happen | Dec 26 14:55 |
schestowitz | But they might still try to censor it | Dec 26 14:55 |
oiaohm | Yes all WL Mirrors could be forced off the net if the USA decided to flex there complete power over the internet. | Dec 26 14:55 |
schestowitz | I got criticed for a tweet of mine; | Dec 26 14:55 |

schestowitz | > | Dec 26 14:55 |
oiaohm | But the backlash from the world would be so great it would not be funny. | Dec 26 14:55 |

oiaohm | Really what is the point to kill Assange | Dec 26 14:56 |
schestowitz | No point | Dec 26 14:56 |
oiaohm | Kill the person who leaked the information so they cannot do it again. | Dec 26 14:56 |
schestowitz | Cause it's too late | Dec 26 14:56 |
schestowitz | He's too many people | Dec 26 14:56 |
schestowitz | "I am ssange" | Dec 26 14:56 |
schestowitz | "I am Assange" | Dec 26 14:56 |
schestowitz | It's the material that matters | Dec 26 14:56 |
oiaohm | Kill Assange he will be replaced. | Dec 26 14:56 |
schestowitz | And they distribute the data encrypted | Dec 26 14:56 |
schestowitz | To reduce assassination incentive | Dec 26 14:57 |
oiaohm | At least Assange is not out to use the information for pure evil. | Dec 26 14:57 |
schestowitz | oiaohm: they already have a new spokesman from Iceland | Dec 26 14:57 |
schestowitz | A TV person, I think | Dec 26 14:57 |
oiaohm | openleaks and wikileaks both exist now. | Dec 26 14:57 |
oiaohm | So they are multiplying. | Dec 26 14:57 |
oiaohm | Now what would be the best way to counter wikileaks. | Dec 26 14:58 |
oiaohm | Mirror it many times over but make sure that all your mirrors are infected in a way that they are harddrive destorying. | Dec 26 14:58 |
oiaohm | Sooner or latter no one will be game to go near wikileaks. | Dec 26 14:59 |
oiaohm | No need to kill. | Dec 26 14:59 |
MinceR | make it obsolete via anarchy | Dec 26 14:59 |
MinceR | :> | Dec 26 14:59 |
oiaohm | Exactly. | Dec 26 14:59 |
MinceR | or at least via transparent democracy | Dec 26 15:00 |
oiaohm | then say the people around wikileaks are anachy and evil virus ... And the attacker put them there. | Dec 26 15:00 |
MinceR | you seem to misunderstand me | Dec 26 15:00 |
oiaohm | anarchy allows them give validation to using mil force. MinceR | Dec 26 15:00 |
MinceR | no, in anarchy there is no "them" | Dec 26 15:01 |
oiaohm | What do you think the insergancts USA fights in many countries are. | Dec 26 15:01 |
MinceR | what do you think they are? | Dec 26 15:01 |
oiaohm | It always seams funny. Most of the insergents trace back to CIA training. | Dec 26 15:02 |
oiaohm | Basically gun fooder to keep the USA arms companies turning over. | Dec 26 15:03 |
