mircea_popescu: maybe they pursued a defamation suit, sent c&ds around ?
mircea_popescu: but wouldn't you say that describing that legalese boilerplate as "jew baiting" in 2000 would offer sufficient explanation of why he can't get his shit published in 2012 or w/e ?

decimation: http://pocan.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/pocan-massie-introduce-legislation-to-repeal-patriot-act < snowden's ultimate gift to usg
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Gotta check the German story first
mircea_popescu: now ima have to make another thing!
mircea_popescu: trinque no dude, you just blew the whole shebang wide open.

mircea_popescu: trinque you think this is funny ?
trinque: I joked just last night that #b-a RPG was a meta-NSA recruitment program
mircea_popescu: i don't think that text works without the necessary "bouncing wall" effect a properly conspiratorial mindset provides.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: they could trivially be stated about you << just about anything could be. and folks would believe it, too.
mircea_popescu: for one, they could trivially be stated about you. for the other, srsly ? this is a claim now ?
decimation: all of which happen with or without their help
asciilifeform: admittedly #2 is more my conjecture than sachs text
mircea_popescu: im not sure i'd hang any man for either of these.
asciilifeform: decimation: sure he does. in his picture, snowden (but especially the greenwald gang) lead genuine defectors to perdition 2) lead public to use 'blackphones', 'redphones', and misc. garbage 3) drum up a general sense of dread and 'the walls have ears'
mircea_popescu: heck, all the reddit brigading is essentially this, "you can blackball nobodies by banging on a lot of pots and pans!"
decimation: re: sachs < he fails to assert why the cia benefits from anything assange or snowden are doing, while the media gets moar clicks

mircea_popescu: like the qntra ddos stuff was informative re wp etc
asciilifeform: which thing, out of curiosity
mircea_popescu: didn't take, but was informative
mircea_popescu: i know because angry/stupid .ro folk with delusions of self importance tried this sort of thing (on like 3 different occasions) against me
assbot: Logged on 26-03-2015 18:43:11; asciilifeform: the most testable hypothesis is that google systematically blackholes him
mircea_popescu: http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-03-2015#1072753 << you know, this is something a (reasonably unknown) derp can do for himself - just spam a lot.
