hey guys,
I may be ignorant in thinking this but by making all of your investigations, leads and info public by posting it here, don't you think you are giving them a chance to cover their tracks? I'm sure they'd have people keeping track of all this stuff so whenever you post a new lead they would do what they can to make sure it leads to nothing.

i just think we need a different structure, similar to wikileaks perhaps. a submission system for leads that is checked over by select investigators. then when the lead is of no more use they can disclose it. just an idea

The problem with that is there is no way to be sure the "select investigators" are trustworthy. Anyway, the point of our investigation isn't to catch individual perpetrators. It's to expose the network as a whole. Also, the more leads we uncover, the more likely a smoking gun will eventually be found in some for or another.

yeah ive been thinking about how to select trustworthy people, thats a hard one. to be honest i think we'd have found a few smoking guns already if this wasn't a public investigation.
edit: another thing to consider is whether the FBI is investigating or not and if so are we jeopardizing the investigation by posting all possible leads that they may already be onto
double edit: people also seem to post their leads way too quickly, see how deep you can dive before sharing it publicly.
