schestowitz | > Winston Churchill once said of Russia, "It is an enigma wrapped in a | Feb 17 20:10 |

schestowitz | Rianne says she could not access this Financial Times story because it was behind a paywall. I'm glad you were not blocked from reading like she was. | Feb 17 20:11 |
schestowitz | I thought about exploring Singapore for reasons similar to Shane's. It's an adventure and it looks like fun. But they have a seemingly oppressive government there, I heard, so my activism there will be limited. There are other things that which repel me a bit. | Feb 17 20:11 |
schestowitz | I have been writing a lot recently about FBI, CIA, NSA, and other corrupt agencies that instigate violence, so I would not want to be in a place where people can be murdered and then the murder covered up by police. Singapore -- like Malaysia or China -- scares me a bit. | Feb 17 20:11 |
qu1j0t3 | David Kelly... | Feb 17 20:11 |
qu1j0t3 | "I would not want to be in a place where people can be │ | Feb 17 20:11 |
qu1j0t3 | | murdered and then the murder covered up by police | Feb 17 20:12 |
qu1j0t3 | welcome to planet earth | Feb 17 20:12 |
schestowitz | David Kelly was one of very few here, AFIK | Feb 17 20:12 |
schestowitz | AFAIK | Feb 17 20:12 |
schestowitz | And I'm not 100% he was suicided | Feb 17 20:12 |
qu1j0t3 | you don't hear about the rest :) | Feb 17 20:12 |
qu1j0t3 | that's the problem | Feb 17 20:12 |
schestowitz | BBC et al. helped cover it up with plausaiile deniability | Feb 17 20:12 |
schestowitz | And I'm quite sure Aaron Swartz wasn't suicided | Feb 17 20:13 |

schestowitz | is g/f explained the last 24 hours of his life | Feb 17 20:13 |
schestowitz | his dad too thinks they pushed him into it with psychological warfare | Feb 17 20:13 |
schestowitz | FT says Shane was depressed a bit and burned out a dacde earlier | Feb 17 20:13 |
schestowitz | but that oughtn't explain why in a great job in .sg he would shock by ending his life | Feb 17 20:14 |
schestowitz | Russia seems to have assassinated quite a few journos anf bloggers | Feb 17 20:15 |
schestowitz | That mafia-run country would be scary to be an activist in | Feb 17 20:15 |
qu1j0t3 | schestowitz | And I'm quite sure Aaron Swartz wasn't suicided // right, but that distinction probably doesn't matter very much to his family and friends | Feb 17 20:17 |
qu1j0t3 | in the end he's dead | Feb 17 20:17 |
schestowitz | yes, and not without honour | Feb 17 20:19 |
schestowitz | remembr the full story | Feb 17 20:19 |
schestowitz | he had helped wikileaks | Feb 17 20:19 |
schestowitz | and not long before the secret agents (secretservices.gov iIRC) took over his case | Feb 17 20:19 |
schestowitz | Applebaum can tell how he's harassed and is under surveillance | Feb 17 20:20 |
schestowitz | They look for dirt on him | Feb 17 20:20 |
schestowitz | given the chance, they would try to pull an Assange on him | Feb 17 20:20 |
schestowitz | BTW, Swartz was accused in the legal, official pages of being "alleged hacker" | Feb 17 20:20 |
schestowitz | as if "hacker" is a crime | Feb 17 20:21 |
schestowitz | it's just someone who can perhaps write a script to mass-download something he's allowed to get | Feb 17 20:21 |
schestowitz | China is accused of "hacking" to blur gaps | Feb 17 20:21 |
