Re: "unclean hands" -- Re: Fw: Re: Assange Superseding Indictment
The "legal team" of Mr Assange, it is before everything a juicy business... for themselves... 'Law' is a parody there. A necessary comedy for that democratic circus. Well, they won't execute Mr Assange, they will make him slowly and slowly die... to the extradition, then in the USA, then in a supermax, until the end, and he will be an example for the others who would like to try... just don't try... Many things were wrong with Mr Assange, If you intend to be a spy, then you keep your profile a total secret, not showing and advertising yourself everywhere on TV. If you intend to be a 'journalist' (and nothing really positive can be linked to that term) then it's a bad idea to act as a spy... Finally, if you intend to create an 'open society' which is 'clean' and transparent and where everything is been known, that is exactly what the Soros-US-Democratic shit have promoted in Ukraine with the results of breaking the country in two... If you mess with the US military secrets, expect reactions. In Russia, Assange would have been shot dead a long,long time ago for having done just a fraction of what he has done. Sometimes I think shot faster even in 'democratic Ukraine', now after euromaidan. Crimes of war are everywhere. War is awful. Regarding Donbass there are thousands and thousands of anonymous videos on youtube and elsewhere , similar to the 'Collateral Murders' which has produced by WikiLeaks... featuring horrible crimes , some fakes, some reals. (and good luck to know which one are real and which one are fake) So what do we learn from Wikileaks, that the USA are no better than the others 'non-democratic' countries? What a lesson! There is just a conclusion... whatever one may think of Assange, he certainly doesn't deserve such a horrible fate because Assange didn't kill anyone, didn't steal anyone and didn't intend to cause harm to anyone - even not to the US Government apparently... and I do believe he is probably a very naive person. What happens to Assange will happen to many others. Once you're in their supermax, it is hard to escape. Again, all this is a question of action... legal team is bullshit. Totally bullshit. There are ways of making people out of jail... all depends on risks, money and especially motivations. What we see is the manifestation of a hidden (and hideous) power inside the 'democratic' countries. That power can only be fought by a group of people who are opposed to that power for ideological reasons. Once again, so far there are no ideology to unite... -- CRYPTOANALYZER --

It seems his lawyer is now the mother of his 2 next children. That's why I am concerned she is literally "too close to home" to defend him properly. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8210957/WikiLeaks-boss-Julian-Assange-fathered-two-children-inside-Ecuadorian-embassy-lawyer.html JA never "evaded rape charges" he personally presented himself to the Swedish police when asked, before he ever left that country. Case was closed. What Assange later attempted to evade was cross-jurisdictional, essentially illegal, extradition to the USA. The Demon-rats are still paddling their little rat feet in the waters as their ship sinks, but they still hope for a November win, and until that fat lady sings, they are in with a chance. Until then at the least, expect Assange to remain locked up, and expect the lock down to continue.

For someone in contact with JA's legal team, perhaps the legal application of "unclean hands" might be useful: When the prosecution comes to the table with unclean hands, where does the law lie? The prosecution/USA gov (and steps in the system itself): - attempted, quite apparently, to entrap Assange first into Sweden - at multiple times, in and out of court, JA has been denied his own paperwork - the UK Judge who was shown publicly to be with a conflict of interest, yet continued to preside over the case on multiple appearances - the evident coercion put upon Manning, of an extra year's jail after she was pardoned - all that cross jurisdictional "USA is the policeman of the world" bullshit Perhaps others can think of more. I am concerned that JA's defence lawyer is now WAY too close to home, and that she may no longer see the obvious for whatever reasons. Even for those who so crave the "rule of law", to be "hung on the tree of the law" (Galations) rather than to hang by his own conscience and God alone, well, the law, as drudgery as it is, to be at all meaningful to anyone with half a conscience, must be founded in basic principles of justice at the very least, such as fairness and no abuse of process, the principle of "unclean hands". e.g. so OK, the US Gov insists on "holding JA to account according to various strict and cross-jurisdictional applications of law" (and rather shockingly, public murmerings on this list that JA must contiue to do pennance, continue to atone for his evils and wrongs, to do more time in maxi), but IN THAT SAME principle, the prosecution must (if justice is to be seen to be done), allow Julian due process, documents, the time he needs for legal attack against the prosecution etc - in short, the prosecution, to not be seen to be biased, must simultaneously prosecute itself, for all its misdeeds and unclean hands. There is only one possible principle upon JA's neck which can be said to be moral or karmic: not "national security", not "muh state secrets", and not (it seems) any of the charges being brought against him (but note that I don't know the list of charges, and the US prosecution seems to be ambushing in various ways with new charges over time).

Right :) But "government" is also ambiguous. I mean, I live on an old farm with several hundred others, with sociocratic governance.

Defeating the authority/ power/ control of another, even the very concept, gives some implicit, even explicit, recognition and engagement of that other, involvement in bringing closer to my heart it's evil. Try as I might, the paradox dominates me, smashing the fabric of thought itself no the rocks of apparent certainty... It is not fighting and defeating we must seek - in fact the opposite since defeating includes "may be being defeated", so this is tacit (or worse) consent to the war, is it not personal involvement, recognition , and wringing every ounce of life out of this war, so "real" there is no other life ... then .. no life ??? This thinking we have is entrained over millenia - we must instead ditch "drone" thinking. Push against wall makes wall heavy, ignore wall it does not have so much existence in my consciousness. Application of this principle is the riddle in a rhyme in a conundrum of uncertainty but hope for an alternative to this war.. If "to fight" begats war, we must not fight, at least not for "to fight the good fight" alone in that there we die .. fruitless. But what then? Plug holes in bucket? create loopholes for a few? Wherefore what for ought we do? Tis evidently not so easy to know what to do? Is it a secret? Perhaps yes -and- no. Can our entrained, enschooled, ensheepled think, be a primary barrier to our living in freedom? Is "MY mind" the ultimate virus? Is it "I"? What clouds my mind so, that I struggle so, to think outside the box, the war, the ever present evil in "others" "out there", ever never blame within? Johnathan briefly shook in fear as he contemplated the unending unfathomables, sinking once more into his trancelike apoplexy as he again held the table for it's feigned succour of external support - yet a physical, so temporary illusion of solidity which immediately began slipping again from his awareness and reality. ...

Governments are not necessary at all if we consider a population where *each individual* can self-govern itself. So far you can't get x people, make them live together without conflicts, hate, jealousy, conspiracy etc... it's human nature. Here the point I think would be more to protect oneself to be spied by governments rather than to spy on governments. To be able to live - simply to live in freedom - without tracking, constraints, control, monitoring (not only from Gov but also from other people acting as if they were the Government) is a terrible challenge nowadays. No need to go and try to hack the secrets of corporations.(which BTW have not so big secrets ...) Possibly a new form of resistance will be to try to simply ... live in a world shaped by global video-monitoring, paranoia, fear, controls, distrust, etc... Live without having to wear masks to get food or money. Live without having to make selfie of your ass to get a phone number. Life without the fear to get video-monitored by the iPhones of people in secret. Life without having to show your ID at anytime to anyone dressed in something looking as a uniform with insignia. Yet it is claimed that a society without control would result in a large criminal world where several mafias would rule and you would fear to get wounded or killed at any corner of the street. But 'Mafia' is also and before all a 'society' of control. Their controls are far more cruel than anyone can imagine. All this isn't new, the "game changer" is technology which provide evil governments the way to make the planet as a giant 'supermax'. Once again, this is probably where Cypherpunks, or others who still may have to come, may have a role to play as well... because this is all about technology (and the science behind)... one can fight against technology of controls (gps/sim/ai/pki/...) only by using an equivalent - if not superior - technology in order to defat these technologies of control.

I generally agree, although I'm not so bloodthirsty about it ;) As I see it, privacy rights are inversely proportional to power over others. So even if governments are necessary, which is questionable at best, nothing about them ought to be private. Because openness is a prerequisite for public oversight.

Re: Fw: Re: Assange Superseding Indictment
Assange is probably the most interesting subject in terms of Cypherpunk movement. The paradox of Assange. While Cypherpunks are advocating privacy for the "ordinary people" (e.g. the John Does), Assange denied the right to Governments to have as well privacy. This may look as a joke that governments should have as well privacy and not been open (and 'opened') but when you think about it, there is that sentence from Nietzsche that says 'Wenn dulange in einenAbgrundblickst, blickt derAbgrundauch in dich hinein' , in other terms if you fight monsters, do not become one yourself and if you look deep into the abyss, the abyss also looks deep into you. That say making lessons to the one who is rotting in jail is a bit too comfortable. > ‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐ > On Monday, June 29, 2020 7:51 AM, Digitalfolklore > wrote: > >> Sabu posted a pic...made a bet with Jester...he also posted a blockchain >> address... >> >> see if thats around...Sabus twitter was cloned...take the S out of >> anonymous...add Sabu and you';ll have the clone. >> >> Also important to remember Biella Coleman met with Sabu more than once. >> I 'll leave that for you to work out. >> >> It is important to remember when your family are heroin dealers and you're >> the only family member not in jail...you will do anything to save the >> children...Sabu was in the wrong poke at the wrong time.

Assange Superseding Indictment
"LulzSec (who by then was cooperating with the FBI)" https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/wikileaks-founder-charged-superseding-indictment "Since the early days of WikiLeaks, Assange has spoken at hacking conferences to tout his own history as a famous teenage hacker in Australia and to encourage others to hack to obtain information for WikiLeaks. In 2009, for instance, Assange told the Hacking At Random conference that WikiLeaks had obtained nonpublic documents from the Congressional Research Service by exploiting a small vulnerability inside the document distribution system of the United States Congress, and then asserted that [t]his is what any one of you would find if you were actually looking. In 2010, Assange gained unauthorized access to a government computer system of a NATO country. In 2012, Assange communicated directly with a leader of the hacking group LulzSec (who by then was cooperating with the FBI), and provided a list of targets for LulzSec to hack. With respect to one target, Assange asked the LulzSec leader to look for (and provide to WikiLeaks) mail and documents, databases and pdfs. In another communication, Assange told the LulzSec leader that the most impactful release of hacked materials would be from the CIA, NSA, or the New York Times. WikiLeaks obtained and published emails from a data breach committed against an American intelligence consulting company by an Anonymous and LulzSec-affiliated hacker. According to that hacker, Assange indirectly asked him to spam that victim company again. In addition, the broadened hacking conspiracy continues to allege that Assange conspired with Army Intelligence Analyst Chelsea Manning to crack a password hash to a classified U.S. Department of Defense computer."
