Someone who did work with Wikileaks would know that words mean nothing in a world of lies.
That being said, in case of aiming to release compromising intel on someone in authority, one would most assurely release it to several organisations as well as keep backups in safe places and also definitely not exactly send it from your own adress, so begging not to submit anything instead of asking to take additional security measures makes it extra shady.
I was with him (mostly) until he said, "The NSA is under the control of technocratic trans-humanist types."
Technocracy: The government or control of society or industry by an elite of technical experts.
Transhumanism: The belief or theory that the human race can evolve beyond its current physical and mental limitations, especially by means of science and technology.
Doesn't the transhumanism bit sound a bit outlandish?
I do want proof of life and am concerned Phase 3 never came out though.
If they're all run by the same man what are the odds the NSA and CIA are 'fighting' with each other as the OP says if they are meant to follow orders by the same man?
And he's saying that Snowden is a CIA plant and was used to discredit the NSA in this war. Who really believes that?
I have suspected this for some time. However, the blasting hole in the story is that of the individual can communicate with us via the web, why can't they activate the contingency plan without physical travel?
That has no credibility, but it doesn't change the fact that Julian Assange is still missing. I don't know how much longer people are going to abide this abuse.
No, I haven't saved them. They were all from here, I did chase down verification on anything questionable. Over 30 days now, no proof of life. Tweets are different, certain things didn't release as planned, weird ama, that armed entry force where they seized cell phones of bystanders, jammed signals, then the plane left London, photos of it there and flight tracked it to a rendition airport in Virginia I think. No sightings since. Now this... It just perfectly plays into what looks like is happening. Yes it's a chan, but it seems right. Perhaps we need to Tsunami WL Twitter with "ASSANGE CAPTURED BY USA, prove me wrong!"
DDoS attack could only slow down a deadman's switch it would eventually activate. Not sure how the switch works I assume someone from within the group just has to ping a server somewhere to reset a timer. East Coast DDoS slowing it down how would that even work unless the deadman's switch is on a East Coast server. I would even bet there's a multi switches on servers around the world. Sounds fake to me.
Agreed. I was playing with a dead man switch a while back, it checked an email address regularly and if it did not receive a correctly written email at the correct interval then it would execute a script. Some of the actions included Facebook and Twitter posts, I didn't have the API keys configured so it just kept trying because it did not recurve a successful response.
Eventually the ddos will stop, but the switch would already be active.
More than a decent chance, any one oddity is dismissible. A dozen is internal upheaval. Too much weirdness, no proof of life, strange inconsistencies, verified parts of that story are true. The Guantanamo express left London hours after the armed guard incident, landed in a rendition airport in the states.
I say it's a 95% chance Asange is under US custody and the org is compromised.

These same NSA patriots might be the source of the leaked DNC/Clinton emails?

James Clapper is the Director of National Intelligence (who will step down at the end of Obama's term). "Clapper's job is to oversee Comey's FBI and 16 other intelligence agencies, including the CIA, NSA (National Security Agency) and the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration)."

You guys are the worst skeptics or are shills.
What of what he's said doesnt add up?

What if they release a fake contingency plan?

It's been 44 days since any form of definite proof of life from Julian Assange.

Hmmmm, skepticism imminent...
Likelihood that a person in this position would misspell GCHQ 2/2 times?

Maybe the misspelling is a code. /s

"Very technical and complicated"
Seems like a cop out to not provide proof.
Probably fake.

The way I read was the DDOS would make the system releasing the DMS, be unable to connect to relevant servers until they could be powered down.
Though, why they would rely on external DNS and not use an IP directly in the system-no idea.

This bodes poorly for the future of humanity.

My take: The dems don't think this election is over, so Ecuador is still keeping him offline.
