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.
Julian Assange
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.
The political risk consultancy John Kiriakou founded with the dean of the University of Salamanca's intelligence studies programme, staffed with academics and a former assistant secretary of state, with offices in Salamanca and Washington and a stated business of selling cost-effective country and regional risk analysis to banks, funds and companies.
GeoRisk Solutions is the consulting firm John Kiriakou co-founded with the dean of the graduate intelligence studies programme at the University of Salamanca, where Kiriakou teaches.
Formation
Kiriakou says he and the dean, who are good friends, decided to try their hand at establishing a consulting firm.[1] They brought in the American privacy researcher Sean O’Brien, a professor at Yale, along with a professor from Chile, one from the United States, and a former assistant secretary of state who Kiriakou noted had joined the firm that same day.[2]
What the firm sells
The stated business is to provide cost-effective political risk analysis to companies, firms, banks, mutual funds — in Kiriakou’s phrase, everybody that needs a deep view of what is happening either around the world or very specifically about a certain area.[2]
Kiriakou reported that the venture was going well so far. It had been established only within the past year, had just completed its first contract, was moving quickly into a second, and was expanding, with offices both in Salamanca and in Washington, D.C.[2][3] Asked to name it, he initially could not recall having given the name and had to check with O’Brien before confirming it as GeoRisk Solutions.[3][4]
The firm sits alongside Kiriakou’s other post-agency work with O’Brien, including the seminars on surveillance and anti-surveillance the two were then advertising.[4]
