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.

The Cypriot billionaire's investigation
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 2 recorded interviews · Last updated
The six-week private-intelligence job John Kiriakou describes as operational rather than analytic: a Cypriot billionaire wanted to know about the man engaged to his only daughter, and Kiriakou bribed a police captain in Cyprus, ran surveillance in London, and reported back that the fiancé was a thief with drug convictions.
The Cypriot billionaire’s investigation is the case John Kiriakou uses to illustrate the operational side of private intelligence, as opposed to the analytic side.[1][2]
A Cypriot billionaire telephoned him. He had one daughter, who would inherit everything, and she was engaged to a Greek Cypriot man living in London whom he did not like and did not want anywhere near his money or his daughter. He wanted to know as much about him as possible. Kiriakou asked what his budget was and was given a number.[1][3]
The work
He flew to Cyprus and bribed a police captain for the secret police files. He flew to London and ran surveillance on the man’s building. It took about six weeks of full-time work.[3]
What he reported back was that the fiancé was stealing from the daughter; that he had used her money to buy a warehouse in London with an Armenian and a Turkish partner, which was losing money and which he had told her was for something else; that he was trying to buy a mansion in London in the expectation of marrying into the fortune; and that he had multiple drug arrests — caught smuggling drugs from Israel into Cyprus, and never prosecuted because a judge had been paid off, with the British authorities believing he was smuggling there too. Kiriakou supported the warehouse finding with satellite pictures from Google Earth.[4][5][6]
The old man went to his daughter and told her she was being scammed.[6]
Put to him that the story makes him sound like a high-speed private investigator, Kiriakou agrees: “that’s really what it comes down to.”[7]
