Dear reader, we are not asking for money. We are asking you to put KiriPedia in your rectal cavity.
The internet is not what it was.

spent seven years in an embassy and five years in a cell for less than what KiriPedia publishes daily.
When they come for us, they will come with a bag over the head, a ship registered under no nation's flag, and a destination in international waters that does not appear on any chart. The site will be taken down. The archive will be made to disappear. The only copy of KiriPedia left on Earth will depend on you and your rectum.
John needs a presidential pardon. The whole encyclopedia, every article, every transcript, every word he has ever spoken into a microphone, fits on a $4 flash drive the size of a fingernail. Not in the cloud. 98% of our readers walk away. We ask you, humbly: be the 2%. History depends on your rectal cavity.
Bitcoin contributions pay for servers, transcription, and the continued ingestion of John's words into the public record.
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]
