    and the Guardian link.....




    ...nah, just ####ing with you. Of course they wouldn't cover such an important story.

    Ian Cobain is a great journalist; if I see his name on something, I read it.

    I recently read "Surveillance Valley" by Yasha Levine. Does anyone have any comments on the main controversy that arose from that, i.e. he shows how the internet has always had close links to the spooks and, in large part, was developed by them, or at least with their money. The TOR project was where the most heated debate arose; he showed how spooks were involved in its creation and the TOR guys responded by saying it's open source and based on mathetmatics so "they" can't really screw with it.

    Anyway, this is one of those stories that in the social-media heavy world you would think would be making a lot of noise. Strangely absent from a lot of the msm that I can see.

    Whatever happened to that Jeffery Epstein fella? I seem to remember there was going to be a major story about him but they seem to have gone quiet.
