http://cryptome.org/ http://cryptome.org/ is a reliable resource is it? Because it looks like a conspiracy website.
- matthewbauer 12y agoIt looks like it has a similar goal to Wikileaks - publish classified documents.
- dreamdu5t 12y agoCryptome was the first major leaks / "open secrets" website. Their mission is simple: Publish documents that governments try and keep secret.
- BgSpnnrs 12y agoWithout personal interaction and not to cast aspersions on a person I've not met, John Young has a reputation of being a bit of a firebrand, iconoclast and bombastic figure - however cryptome has operated for many years with a simple policy of publish docs deemed inappropriate for public view... They intentionally make no judgement on the things they publish. It is a note of importance however, to realise cryptome - in the case of most of these source documents - are serving as a host rather than linking to the original (guardian/WAPO/firstlook/der speigel etc.) websites, probably as much for posterity as for convenience. I see little reason to question the veracity of the info provided on this site.
- anonbanker 12y agoThere is that word again: Conspiracy. I do not think it means what you think it means.
