iDear reader,we are not begging for money.We are asking youto put KiriPedia up your ass.
Julian Assange
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 spy tech from Amazon

John Kiriakou's account that roughly 95% of the CIA's spy technology is purchased commercially from Amazon.com rather than custom-built, illustrated by a $10 leather briefcase he had rigged into a listening device in a Pakistani market.
CIA spy tech from Amazon is John Kiriakou’s account of the agency’s mostly commercial, off-the-shelf approach to surveillance equipment. Asked about the coolest spy technology he ever used, Kiriakou said there is “kind of a dirty little secret” about it: roughly 95% of CIA spy tech is purchased from Amazon.com, because it is cheaper and quicker to buy something online than to invent it from scratch.[1] He identifies AWS — Amazon Web Services — as the specific unit of Amazon that does business with the CIA.[2]
The Pakistani-market briefcase
Kiriakou’s own favorite piece of tradecraft was a $10 leather briefcase bought in a Pakistani market. Over three days, a colleague rigged it with a listening-device wire and tiny batteries sewn into the lining. Kiriakou carried the briefcase — empty of anything visibly incriminating — into a meeting; his colleagues, positioned half a mile away, were able to listen to the entire conversation.[3]
