I feel really jaded for daring to think it, but I really hope he has the releases set up on a deadman's switch.

- cgag 13y agoIt'd be naive to not think about it.
- rl3 13y agoSuch things can backfire: http://www.zdnet.com/blog/btl/wikileaks-insurance-file-decrypted-names-of-informants-exposed/56553 http://www.zdnet.com/blog/btl/wikileaks-insurance-file-decry... EDIT: Didn't see the Twitter update at the bottom, my apologies.
- ck2 13y agoupdate: In a tweet, the @wikileaks says: "WikiLeaks 'insurance' files have not been decrypted. All press are currently misreporting. There is an issue, but not that issue."
- Taylorious 13y agoWell he did allude to all of the insane things he supposedly had access to like operative names, safe houses, etc. even saying something to the extend of bring the NSA down in an afternoon. If I was going to have deadman's switch, it would be all that stuff. He doesn't seem like the type to do it outright, he doesn't seem to want to cause that level of chaos and damage (if indeed he does have the power), but who knows what will happen if he shows dead somewhere.
