Jerome Corsi, InfoWars retract Seth Rich story

Seymour Hersh said in an off-the-record interview (recorded without his knowledge) that he has seen FBI records stating the Rich communicated with Wikileaks. The FBI report also opines that his murder was a would-be robbery gone bad unrelated to the leak, based on forensic analysis of his defensive wounds.

Bill Binney differs with you. He’s a former IT architect at the NSA.

Here's his article: https://consortiumnews.com/2017/09/20/more-holes-in-russia-gate-narrative/

I didn't have time until tonight to run the tests. I have a server at a hosting service in NJ. I have an account with a different hosting service that I used for my destimation. I created a 1GB file in NJ from /dev/random. I sent the file to New York City, Singapore and London using sftp

NJ to NY
1gdata 100% 1024MB 79.6MB/s 00:12
NJ to Singapore
1gdata 100% 1024MB 7.9MB/s 02:09
NJ to London
1gdata 100% 1024MB 25.7MB/s 00:39

The guy is wrong. The rest of his article is equally wrong, e.g. "(n theory, this would be one possible way to achieve such a large-data transfer, but we have no evidence that anything like this actually occurred. More important, in such a scenario, the National Security Agency would have chapter and verse on it, because such a hack would have to include software to execute the partitioning and subsequent data transfer. NSA gives the highest priority to collection on “execution software.”

That is all wrong, every bit of it. All server OS's contain the programs or "execution software" to compress files and transfer them securely. NSA doesn't "collect" that software, they can simply assume that software is everywhere.

You may believe he’s wrong but that like Assange announcing a $20,000 reward for solving Seth Rich’s murder speaks volumes.

Binney is probably correct and the DNC keeping the server from the FBI, well that’s more than peculiar. It’s incriminating.
