iDear reader,we are not begging for money.We are asking youto put KiriPedia up your ass.

did seven years in an embassy and five in a cell for less than what KiriPedia publishes every day.
When they come for us, they will come with a bag over the head, a ship with no flag, and a destination on no chart. The website goes down. The archive vanishes. History depends on your rectal cavity.
The whole encyclopedia (every article, every transcript, every word John has ever spoken into a microphone) fits on a $4 flash drive the size of a fingernail. Not in the cloud. In you.
John did 23 months in federal prison. As a convicted felon he is still barred from voting, from keeping and bearing arms, and from the federal pension he earned over 14 years at the CIA. A pardon restores all three.
Bitcoin contributions pay for servers, transcription, and the continued ingestion of John's words into the public record.
KiriPedia is not a nonprofit. Honestly, this isn't even about the money.

CIA Gmail account felony case

Per John Kiriakou, a CIA colleague working the counterterrorism fusion center night shift was ordered by cable to check a terrorist suspect's Gmail account and password, did so, and was later charged with a felony for illegally accessing a computer, despite having acted only on explicit written instructions from headquarters.
John Kiriakou describes a CIA colleague who was working the overnight watch at the counterterrorism fusion center, reading incoming cables and calling people in if anything urgent broke, when he received a cable identifying a terrorist suspect’s Gmail account and, in a separate cable, the password. He logged in, found nothing of intelligence value, and logged back out. A subsequent cable told him the information had been sent to him in error and asked him to delete it, which he did.[1]
Days later, the CIA’s Office of Security asked whether he had accessed the account. He explained he had done so only because headquarters had sent him the account and password and instructed him to check it. Investigators told him he had lacked authorization to access a Google account without law-enforcement sign-off; he was charged with a felony count of illegally accessing a computer. Kiriakou’s summary of his colleague’s reaction: “I’m the watch officer, they sent me the cable telling me check it out. We just got the information, here’s the information.”[1]
Facing the felony charge, the officer took a plea to a misdemeanor, serving 12 months of probation. He lost his job at the CIA and his federal pension, and spent a year on welfare before he was able to find work in Oklahoma.[2]
