Yep, aka rubber-hose cryptanalysis.
The real test here was Assange who embarrassed the U.S. military by publishing drone footage of them killing civilians not to mention everything else.
They got him on an individual level (IMHO by blatantly discarding any remaining vestigial pretense of abiding by the law) but-- the site is up.
- wkat4242 4y agoThe site is up but it's no longer what it once was. It's disappeared from news reports. Nor has another one taken its place. After the prosecution of Assange and Manning and with Snowden in exile, they've mandated to basically stop the whole whistleblower phenomenon in its tracks. Which was probably a bigger goal than one easily-replaced website. It feels a bit like the Arab spring, a lot of hope in the beginning and then it all fizzled out.
