I know that wikileaks' "torrent the encrypted archive, have the decryption key on a dead man's switch" approach didn't exactly work as intended, but it's starting to seem like a relatively good option again IMO :S
- hack37 13y agoI don't really know why do you say it has not really worked. Has anybody been killed ? There is a reason they call it dead man's switch.
- Shish2k 13y agoIt worked fairly well, just not as intended (Unless I'm mis-remembering, the intention was to keep the key secret while wikileaks released small amounts of info at a time)
- jacquesm 13y agoIt's worked just fine so far, Assange's hide-out still hasn't been stormed and he's safer where he is than Snowden.
- ash 13y agoHow do you know Assange's hide-out is safer than Snowden's? It's also interesting that Snowden likely has more freedom. At least he can move around Russia, while Assange is stuck inside a room. (security vs freedom)
