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 encrypted submission tool pioneered by WikiLeaks to let sources hand over documents without exposing themselves.
SecureDrop is a tool pioneered by WikiLeaks for protected document submission. It is an example of the organization’s work in source protection, encryption, and privacy. [1] Elsewhere in the same panel discussion, Kiriakou discusses Meredith Whittaker’s work developing a new business model for the encrypted-messaging app Signal.[2]
Confirmed, and the limit of his knowledge
Asked in 2020 to confirm how the system works — a whistleblower deposits material, and the platform delivers it to a newsroom without any link between the person and the material — Kiriakou said that was right, and agreed that it appears on the websites of a number of American outlets as a route for submissions.[3][4] He also accepted the account that Julian Assange was among those who built it, along with Aaron Swartz.[4]
He declined the follow-up. Asked to weigh SecureDrop against GlobaLeaks and the Dutch platform Publeaks built on it, he said he had never heard of Publeaks, and referred the comparison to Bill Binney and Thomas Drake — “most definitely Bill Binney and Drake” would give a detailed answer.[5][6]
