WikiLeaks Issues ‘Torrent Insurance’ Encrypted File With Dead-Man’s Switch
Inquisitr ^ | June 19, 2016 | Reno Berkeley

Posted on 06/19/2016 2:07:02 PM PDT by PJ-Comix

WikiLeaks has issued an encrypted file for download as a kind of “torrent insurance” ahead of its public release of potentially damning documents. As previously discussed on Inquisitr, Guccifer 2.0’s hack of the DNC servers have already revealed possible collusion between the Hillary Clinton campaign, the mainstream media, and Democratic Party leadership.

While the DNC has neither confirmed nor denied the authenticity of these preliminary releases, WikiLeaks’s torrent insurance prior to the actual document dump could indicate the presence of damaging evidence on Clinton, and possibly even the Obama administration.

Famed government whistleblower Edward Snowden tweeted out a message regarding the data breach, noting its significance for more than just the documents themselves.

Right.
You are so brilliant and cognizant.
Just because this group has thrown out legitimate records over and over and over doesn’t mean it isn’t best to assume that this time they are bluffing.

In the exact same vein, Trump has peaked and now he will never get the Republican nomination.

So this is great news, right?

But what’s to stop people from killing them after it’s formally released?

And in this case I would guess for the dead man switch to work, it must be accessed regularly either electronically or physically to let it know everything is A-OK. Otherwise it goes into a count down to dump the data.

I don’t doubt there are “documents”.

She is a lesbo married to a rapist. She has murdered dozens. She has funded ISIS. Her entire emails are public. Her Trump research is public. So, what to expect?

There could be video of Hillary performing a post birth abortion, boiling a puppy alive and spitting on the flag and some would not care.

My prediction:

This document dump will be a big nothing burger, a political farce.

WikiLeaks is doing this only because 99% of their stolen documents harm Conservatives, or harm the USA military, or harm USA intelligence gathering, or harm pro-American foreign leaders.

This dump will allegedly show that WikiLeaks is fair and balanced and attacks Socialists and America haters, too.

“If there is something, release it.”

This is exactly how you do it.

I have no idea if it’s legit or not. If it is you release a bit, wait for the denials, release more refuting the denials...etc. leave your target twisting in the wind

They are hackers....... and attention whores?

I don’t think wikileaks has much love for the current administration. They pretty much despise government and politicians - period. While I am sure they are far left in ideology they do not, and have not, identify with the DNC.

As others have said - to this point, they have not bluffed. They have followed through with what they have claimed even if they tease everyone with it for a month beforehand.

Part of their power is credibility. Can’t see any upside to them for promising this and not following through.

frequent posters will all be targets if she wins

Yes, these servers are real. One example is the Tor network. Think of them as a private Internet running on distributed and volunteer servers.

Wiki leaks is purportedly against government - to be fair, their previous releases have been damaging to the left, especially outside the U.S.

In any other time or any other place I would approve of guys like Assange and Snowden being tried, convicted and either jailed for life or executed because they have done serious damage to America's national security, make no mistake about it.

However, with the Obama and Clinton crime and subversion families present such a clear and present threat national survival, exposure of their malfeasence can only be exposed by such methods because the ‘ media watchdogs’ are covering up for the Obamas and the Clintons

We are in a strange and unprecedented world where national survival trumps national security concerns .

Assange and Snowden deserve medals if they expose the Obama Admin and Clinton misdeed, even if they are only acting as cut outs for Russian aor other foreign intelligence agencies,which is probable
