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.

From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
Free search tool documenting U.S. defense contractors' monitoring of social-media users by political affiliation. John Kiriakou says a search of his own name in the tool's beta showed Northrop Grumman had queried him hundreds of times, and that his attorneys used the data in separate litigation against the company.
WLDragnet is a free search tool that documents monitoring of social-media users by U.S. defense contractors on the basis of political affiliation. A user enters a Twitter handle and is returned a list of the places where the account was picked up.[1][2]
John Kiriakou says he checked it while it was still in beta, two or three years before this March 2025 interview, and was “shocked” by what came back: Northrop Grumman Corporation had searched his name hundreds of times, and “it was clear they were building something.” He notes that he would never otherwise have known he was of interest there, and declines to protect the company by leaving it unnamed, “it’s not my job to protect them, so I’ll just say it.”[3]
The activity was not confined to a single firm. Kiriakou says it extended to companies doing business with Northrop Grumman and to some of its competitors: after he wrote an article four or five years earlier criticising McDonnell Douglas, the record showed “this flurry of activity at McDonnell Douglas, who is this guy, what’s he doing.”[4]
Use in litigation
Kiriakou was in litigation against Northrop Grumman on a separate matter at the time, and says his attorneys were able to use the WLDragnet material as part of the lawsuit.[5] He describes the existence of such a tool as something that would never have occurred to him, “but there it is, and it’s free.”[5][2]
