Housh it was an 474 00:27:56,990 --> 00:27:53,880 incredible situation all because the man 475 00:28:01,070 --> 00:27:57,000 and security agencies and private 476 00:28:05,210 --> 00:28:01,080 security companies couldn't handle what 477 00:28:09,139 --> 00:28:05,220 was going on with their own computers we 478 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:09,149 are talking about young adults here and 479 00:28:14,690 --> 00:28:10,770 we're talking about the computer age and 480 00:28:17,570 --> 00:28:14,700 we're talking about 1984 it's exactly 481 00:28:21,519 --> 00:28:17,580 what was going on here and in Barrett 482 00:28:24,169 --> 00:28:21,529 Brown's case he's a journalist he is a 483 00:28:28,190 --> 00:28:24,179 activist he is somebody that's out there 484 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:28,200 trying to make change in society he 485 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:30,330 copied and pasted a link and then 486 00:28:36,649 --> 00:28:33,330 everything unraveled for him and they 487 00:28:40,269 --> 00:28:36,659 came straight after his mom some of the 488 00:28:43,399 --> 00:28:40,279 things that were posted by Barrett 489 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:43,409 videos we will talk about that the 490 00:28:50,810 --> 00:28:46,370 bathtub videos and and others 491 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:50,820 threatening the FBI because of a direct 492 00:28:54,889 --> 00:28:53,130 result of you know not only his 493 00:28:56,419 --> 00:28:54,899 emotional state at the time and 494 00:29:00,320 --> 00:28:56,429 certainly being threatened and being on 495 00:29:05,389 --> 00:29:00,330 the run but for them coming down on his 496 00:29:08,180 --> 00:29:05,399 mom and it which is what the man does 497 00:29:10,820 --> 00:29:08,190 and the man did all of this and going 498 00:29:13,310 --> 00:29:10,830 back to Sabu because they couldn't 499 00:29:16,490 --> 00:29:13,320 control the narrative they couldn't they 500 00:29:19,310 --> 00:29:16,500 did anonymous was decentralized there 501 00:29:21,470 --> 00:29:19,320 was a very loose situation that was 502 00:29:26,300 --> 00:29:21,480 going on here that they didn't 503 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:26,310 understand and that's where we are today 504 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:30,570 and when we go back and look we look at 505 00:29:37,220 --> 00:29:35,250 the events of 2016 2017 and we think 506 00:29:40,610 --> 00:29:37,230 about the complications in our lives 507 00:29:43,940 --> 00:29:40,620 today with mass media with social media 508 00:29:45,770 --> 00:29:43,950 platforms with with fake news and and 509 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:45,780 the journalism that is going on today 510 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:48,330 and the way that the man controls us and 511 00:29:54,860 --> 00:29:52,050 not only controls the daily dogma that 512 00:29:57,830 --> 00:29:54,870 they continue to do but they want to 513 00:30:01,730 --> 00:29:57,840 divide and conquer all of us and get us 514 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:01,740 in fighting that's how you control us by 515 00:30:05,510 --> 00:30:03,090 getting us out of control 516 00:30:08,090 --> 00:30:05,520 getting our eyes off of the prize 517 00:30:11,270 --> 00:30:08,100 getting our eyes away from the reality 518 00:30:13,370 --> 00:30:11,280 of of the important things that are out 519 00:30:15,950 --> 00:30:13,380 there and you need to think about that 520 00:30:18,620 --> 00:30:15,960 and who is doing something about that 521 00:30:20,930 --> 00:30:18,630 the decentralization of everything well 522 00:30:23,540 --> 00:30:20,940 certainly on stellar and what it 523 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:23,550 represents is part of that but this is 524 00:30:29,420 --> 00:30:26,370 something that Barrett Brown and others 525 00:30:32,060 --> 00:30:29,430 have been talking about and and seeing 526 00:30:35,450 --> 00:30:32,070 the future of for a very long time for 527 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:35,460 us and paid the price because the man 528 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:38,490 doesn't want us talking about it that's 529 00:30:42,620 --> 00:30:40,410 the importance of this show it's the 530 00:30:44,660 --> 00:30:42,630 importance of my life and when you sit 531 00:30:48,020 -->

--> 00:40:16,310 your journalistic career have any idea 721 00:40:24,820 --> 00:40:20,990 about the turmoil and the 1984 aurelion 722 00:40:27,940 --> 00:40:24,830 nightmare that ended up unraveling and a 723 00:40:30,430 --> 00:40:27,950 journalist being arrested and that we 724 00:40:34,060 --> 00:40:30,440 would be talking about this stuff today 725 00:40:36,970 --> 00:40:34,070 didn't your futurist it's mind did you 726 00:40:38,650 --> 00:40:36,980 think that this would have happened you 727 00:40:42,100 --> 00:40:38,660 know I guess I didn't come to think of 728 00:40:43,570 --> 00:40:42,110 it I had some pretty severe ideas about 729 00:40:46,170 --> 00:40:43,580 what might happen to the American 730 00:40:48,580 --> 00:40:46,180 Republic over the next couple decades 731 00:40:51,010 --> 00:40:48,590 but it didn't occur to me I you know I 732 00:40:52,060 --> 00:40:51,020 was a human writer in large part in 733 00:40:54,460 --> 00:40:52,070 addition to being a journalist that's 734 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:54,470 how I started out and this was a 735 00:40:59,680 --> 00:40:56,330 trajectory that kind of came about by a 736 00:41:03,520 --> 00:40:59,690 number of events you know that I could 737 00:41:05,970 --> 00:41:03,530 not have possibly predicted the the 738 00:41:08,350 --> 00:41:05,980 vision of the future which is something 739 00:41:10,240 --> 00:41:08,360 largely well the humor side of it was 740 00:41:14,020 --> 00:41:10,250 always cool and it and your personality 741 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:14,030 came out that way you were you were in 742 00:41:20,710 --> 00:41:18,290 demand you were somebody that all of the 743 00:41:25,030 --> 00:41:20,720 publication's wanted you to write for 744 00:41:27,580 --> 00:41:25,040 them and did that affect things somewhat 745 00:41:30,810 --> 00:41:27,590 in other words did ego come into play as 746 00:41:33,550 --> 00:41:30,820 well not only through your writing but 747 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:33,560 starting to face the man that you could 748 00:41:40,510 --> 00:41:38,210 take all of this on I've had very 749 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:40,520 mecklen and Michael tendencies since I 750 00:41:44,530 --> 00:41:42,770 was a small child so that part of it is 751 00:41:47,620 --> 00:41:44,540 actually pretty pretty in sync with 752 00:41:49,810 --> 00:41:47,630 everything else it obviously as I 753 00:41:54,300 --> 00:41:49,820 started to look at the possibilities of 754 00:41:56,380 --> 00:41:54,310 the Internet as a adolescent there was 755 00:41:58,300 --> 00:41:56,390 there was a sense that there was this is 756 00:41:59,260 --> 00:41:58,310 a this was a land grab that this was 757 00:42:01,270 --> 00:41:59,270 something on which you could make 758 00:42:02,590 --> 00:42:01,280 yourself without having to climb up the 759 00:42:03,820 --> 00:42:02,600 institutional ladders and all that or 760 00:42:06,850 --> 00:42:03,830 get it to college degree or any of those 761 00:42:08,110 --> 00:42:06,860 things this was something it was very 762 00:42:12,310 --> 00:42:08,120 apparent to me that this was something 763 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:12,320 new and open just like the old you know 764 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:15,770 frontiers it was exactly that and then 765 00:42:21,550 --> 00:42:18,890 the other fascinating part about this 766 00:42:25,030 --> 00:42:21,560 and I have asked Bella I've asked Gregg 767 00:42:29,370 --> 00:42:25,040 Housh the same important question I'm 768 00:42:32,230 --> 00:42:29,380 going to lay this out to you the man in 769 00:42:35,650 --> 00:42:32,240 general the man didn't understand 770 00:42:38,020 --> 00:42:35,660 anonymous but anonymous may not have 771 00:42:41,460 --> 00:42:38,030 understood anonymous as well in that 772 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:41,470 what started off as lulz and laughter 773 00:42:47,230 --> 00:42:45,170 turned out to take down governments and 774 00:42:49,030 --> 00:42:47,240 countries right that's all leather 775 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:49,040 that's a whole other thing 776 00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:53,330 did you envision that happening to as 777 00:43:00,760 --> 00:42:56,810 well I did actually when I first came 778 00:43:02,500 --> 00:43:00,770 across the the online venues from which 779 00:43:06,010 --> 00:43:02,510 anonymous eventually sprung which was 780 00:43:08,650 --> 00:43:06,020 4chan org back in 2006 there was 781 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:08,660 something there that fascinated me quite 782 00:43:16,180 --> 00:43:14,450 a bit the ability to bring in and sort 783 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:16,190 of harness large numbers of people very 784 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:18,650 quickly and allow them to put their 785 00:43:25,450 --> 00:43:20,570 ideas into play and to act upon those 786 00:43:26,860 --> 00:43:25,460 ideas this this was very new and even 787 00:43:28,870 --> 00:43:26,870 though was being directed at that time 788 00:43:32,260 --> 00:43:28,880 with these little sort of got us you 789 00:43:37,060 --> 00:43:32,270 know surreal pranks the the the basic 790 00:43:39,010 --> 00:43:37,070 the basic the basic ethos of this the 791 00:43:41,260 --> 00:43:39,020 basic the basic structure around it was 792 00:43:43,330 --> 00:43:41,270 kind of the same it was basically there 793 00:43:45,180 --> 00:43:43,340 was a period the big problem in 21st 794 00:43:47,860 --> 00:43:45,190 century is going to be how do you 795 00:43:50,530 --> 00:43:47,870 arrange large numbers of people or allow 796 00:43:52,060 --> 00:43:50,540 them to self arrange some particular end 797 00:43:55,180 --> 00:43:52,070 now that that's possible for the first 798 00:43:56,650 --> 00:43:55,190 time in human history and that was one 799 00:43:58,150 --> 00:43:56,660 of the early answers it was it was an 800 00:44:00,220 --> 00:43:58,160 accidental answer it was something that 801 00:44:00,550 --> 00:44:00,230 was not supposed to be an answer but 802 00:44:02,380 --> 00:44:00,560 what 803 00:44:04,930 --> 00:44:02,390 something that tells give us a lesson 804 00:44:08,950 --> 00:44:04,940 that anything to become anything else 805 00:44:12,130 --> 00:44:08,960 for one thing and that there is a great 806 00:44:15,850 --> 00:44:12,140 deal we're going to see in the decades 807 00:44:18,100 --> 00:44:15,860 to come come out of these amorphous 808 00:44:19,300 --> 00:44:18,110 online movements they will give rise to 809 00:44:21,300 --> 00:44:19,310 all sorts of things and they're gonna be 810 00:44:24,300 --> 00:44:21,310 very very hard for us to envision today 811 00:44:29,890 --> 00:44:24,310 even with the experience we have now 812 00:44:33,100 --> 00:44:29,900 going back in the this this question 813 00:44:34,660 --> 00:44:33,110 isn't the this simple one which is would 814 00:44:37,330 --> 00:44:34,670 you have done anything different 815 00:44:40,390 --> 00:44:37,340 no that's not the question the question 816 00:44:42,810 --> 00:44:40,400 is would you now knowing that you did go 817 00:44:46,420 --> 00:44:42,820 to prison that would you have done 818 00:44:48,550 --> 00:44:46,430 something more extreme anyway right with 819 00:44:50,110 --> 00:44:48,560 with did you hold back was there 820 00:44:52,300 --> 00:44:50,120 something else that you would have liked 821 00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:52,310 to have done back then that you know 822 00:44:56,110 --> 00:44:54,050 what you went to prison anyway was there 823 00:44:58,840 --> 00:44:56,120 something else that you could have 824 00:44:59,650 --> 00:44:58,850 driven some screws in now I can always 825 00:45:01,660 --> 00:44:59,660 go to prison again 826 00:45:03,100 --> 00:45:01,670 yeah pretty happy with the balance I 827 00:45:04,930 --> 00:45:03,110 struck back and the great thing about 828 00:45:07,810 --> 00:45:04,940 the DOJ coming after me in the way they 829 00:45:10,630 --> 00:45:07,820 did well was that it was so it was so 830 00:45:12,190 --> 00:45:10,640 over overdone and so suspicious that 831 00:45:13,740 --> 00:45:12,200 even mainstream outlets that are 832 00:45:15,670 --> 00:45:13,750 generally not real quick on the uptake 833 00:45:17,620 --> 00:45:15,680 figured out pretty quickly this was 834 00:45:19,300 --> 00:45:17,630 retaliation for my investigative work in 835 00:45:21,130 --> 00:45:19,310 two firms working with the government 836 00:45:22,810 --> 00:45:21,140 and so they made the case for me and for 837 00:45:24,190 --> 00:45:22,820 the research that we did with project PM 838 00:45:26,620 --> 00:45:24,200 and with some of these people from 839 00:45:28,750 --> 00:45:26,630 anonymous they made the case for how 840 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:28,760 important that stuff was in a way that I 841 00:45:34,750 --> 00:45:30,770 never could any regrets 842 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:34,760 I would imagine so but having said that 843 00:45:42,370 --> 00:45:40,370 one never knows what sort of drawbacks 844 00:45:44,110 --> 00:45:42,380 and difficulties are going to later on 845 00:45:46,390 --> 00:45:44,120 open up new horizons and that's 846 00:45:48,940 --> 00:45:46,400 certainly true for me so I feel like I 847 00:45:51,580 --> 00:45:48,950 shouldn't would read anything when you 848 00:45:54,790 --> 00:45:51,590 when you got released I watched the film 849 00:45:57,340 --> 00:45:54,800 right and that the little short 850 00:45:59,820 --> 00:45:57,350 documentary and I'm looking at your 851 00:46:03,700 --> 00:45:59,830 parents and specifically your mom and 852 00:46:05,980 --> 00:46:03,710 now not to get any emotions out of you 853 00:46:08,950 --> 00:46:05,990 or anything but you look at your mom who 854 00:46:13,610 --> 00:46:08,960 and your dad who are your parents and 855 00:46:17,180 --> 00:46:13,620 obviously loved you but I my blood boils 856 00:46:19,700 --> 00:46:17,190 that is the tactic that the FBI took was 857 00:46:23,540 --> 00:46:19,710 to put pressure on you via your parents 858 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:23,550 who are obviously two of the coolest 859 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:26,490 ground is people out there and that 860 00:46:33,260 --> 00:46:29,010 ignited a lot of your anger back then 861 00:46:35,870 --> 00:46:33,270 too as well how do you feel are you a do 862 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:35,880 you do you accept what they did or do 863 00:46:42,020 --> 00:46:38,490 you still you know boil just a little 864 00:46:44,660 --> 00:46:42,030 bit that's something that you know I'll 865 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:44,670 have plenty of time to to respond to in 866 00:46:48,260 --> 00:46:45,090 the future 867 00:46:51,530 --> 00:46:48,270 I mean I've learned patience you can't 868 00:46:53,210 --> 00:46:51,540 forgive a police agency that you already 869 00:46:56,660 --> 00:46:53,220 despised in which you already think is 870 00:46:58,070 --> 00:46:56,670 fundamentally dangerous and Dilla tereus 871 00:47:01,070 --> 00:46:58,080 to the things this country we're 872 00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:01,080 supposed to be about you can't forgive 873 00:47:04,580 --> 00:47:03,330 them on top of all that for going after 874 00:47:06,170 --> 00:47:04,590 your mother for prosecuting your mother 875 00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:06,180 in order to try to get you to cooperate 876 00:47:13,010 --> 00:47:09,690 with them it was I was just a just a 877 00:47:17,930 --> 00:47:13,020 crazy story and so let's actually go 878 00:47:20,470 --> 00:47:17,940 back and not not getting really specific 879 00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:20,480 we don't need to do that tonight but as 880 00:47:30,290 --> 00:47:24,570 things started to you know we can go 881 00:47:32,770 --> 00:47:30,300 back actually with with Jeremy and take 882 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:32,780 a look at that part of things where 883 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:36,930 obviously you didn't know what was going 884 00:47:40,910 --> 00:47:39,570 on the investigation and the way that 885 00:47:43,910 --> 00:47:40,920 they were doing things otherwise it 886 00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:43,920 would have ended differently but did you 887 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:46,530 have suspicions were you looking at some 888 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:48,570 of these situations that they were 889 00:47:55,010 --> 00:47:52,650 closing in did you have any idea yes 890 00:47:56,660 --> 00:47:55,020 there were a number of indications even 891 00:47:58,190 --> 00:47:56,670 aside from the usual sort paranoia that 892 00:48:00,380 --> 00:47:58,200 always crops up whenever you're doing 893 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:00,390 something that the FBI is probably after 894 00:48:04,910 --> 00:48:03,210 you about for one thing never ever the 895 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:04,920 time at the point I got involved with 896 00:48:08,060 --> 00:48:06,330 anonymous to work on the Tunisian 897 00:48:10,850 --> 00:48:08,070 Revolution which was something that a 898 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:10,860 lot of Tunisians were involved in on the 899 00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:13,050 anonymous front as in some of the fellow 900 00:48:16,430 --> 00:48:14,370 who later on when the provisional 901 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:16,440 government was a member of our Anan ops 902 00:48:20,300 --> 00:48:17,970 server from which a lot of this stuff 903 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:20,310 was organized back then at the time I 904 00:48:25,310 --> 00:48:22,410 joined the FBI had just raided 40 905 00:48:27,110 --> 00:48:25,320 households in the u.s. guns drawn 906 00:48:28,580 --> 00:48:27,120 families 907 00:48:31,430 --> 00:48:28,590 parted into the living room all 908 00:48:33,110 --> 00:48:31,440 electronics taken because of the DDoS 909 00:48:35,210 --> 00:48:33,120 attacks the denial of service attacks 910 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:35,220 that a couple thousand people had 911 00:48:40,100 --> 00:48:37,490 participated in to knock down 912 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:40,110 mastercards sort of corporate website 913 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:42,890 for a few seconds which didn't cause any 914 00:48:49,130 --> 00:48:45,210 damage to the the ability to process 915 00:48:50,810 --> 00:48:49,140 payments by the way a very minor almost 916 00:48:53,090 --> 00:48:50,820 kind of a digital sit in and that 917 00:48:54,890 --> 00:48:53,100 elicited this massive nationwide police 918 00:48:56,570 --> 00:48:54,900 response and then simultaneous raids in 919 00:48:58,940 --> 00:48:56,580 Britain so that was the situation when I 920 00:49:01,280 --> 00:48:58,950 got involved the first things I you know 921 00:49:03,890 --> 00:49:01,290 was doing aside from the Tunisia 922 00:49:05,630 --> 00:49:03,900 assistance program was getting lawyers 923 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:05,640 for these people going to the National 924 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:07,530 Lawyers Guild going to jail II Derman 925 00:49:11,660 --> 00:49:09,690 going to some of these other sort of 926 00:49:13,220 --> 00:49:11,670 radical old attorneys and getting 927 00:49:14,690 --> 00:49:13,230 identifying the people who rated and 928 00:49:16,130 --> 00:49:14,700 been putting them together so I heard a 929 00:49:18,140 --> 00:49:16,140 lot from these people who have been 930 00:49:20,660 --> 00:49:18,150 rated about exactly what would happen so 931 00:49:24,020 --> 00:49:20,670 there was never there was never a 932 00:49:26,900 --> 00:49:24,030 question that this was a path that led 933 00:49:28,730 --> 00:49:26,910 in one particular direction and as time 934 00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:28,740 went on as we started discovering things 935 00:49:34,340 --> 00:49:31,050 that were very upsetting to the US 936 00:49:37,340 --> 00:49:34,350 government's there were more indications 937 00:49:40,190 --> 00:49:37,350 that that you know that I was I would 938 00:49:44,090 --> 00:49:40,200 eventually be targeted the the other 939 00:49:49,550 --> 00:49:44,100 part for me on the outside looking in it 940 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:49,560 was a harsh reality check for the FBI 941 00:49:54,290 --> 00:49:52,050 and all of those agencies that were 942 00:49:57,470 --> 00:49:54,300 looking into this that it was 943 00:50:02,410 --> 00:49:57,480 decentralized and this was something 944 00:50:06,950 --> 00:50:04,880 the exact opposite is what they were 945 00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:06,960 dealing with here do you think God came 946 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:09,810 down also as hard as they did because 947 00:50:15,830 --> 00:50:12,570 you know they were just you know pissed 948 00:50:19,030 --> 00:50:15,840 off that that they couldn't they 949 00:50:21,020 --> 00:50:19,040 couldn't control this situation at all 950 00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:21,030 that's that's a very strong possibility 951 00:50:26,300 --> 00:50:23,490 among among the many many slaps in the 952 00:50:28,970 --> 00:50:26,310 face that we gave not only them but also 953 00:50:32,060 --> 00:50:28,980 the GCHQ in England and a number of 954 00:50:34,490 --> 00:50:32,070 actual you know dictatorships and just 955 00:50:36,970 --> 00:50:34,500 companies all of the world you know and 956 00:50:40,610 --> 00:50:36,980 some point Anonymous got in on a 957 00:50:41,090 --> 00:50:40,620 Interpol FBI phone conference recorded 958 00:50:46,190 --> 00:50:41,100 it 959 00:50:49,430 --> 00:50:46,200 anonymous so that was embarrassing to 960 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:49,440 the FBI things like that you know if any 961 00:50:54,110 --> 00:50:50,850 of you ever dealt with authority figures 962 00:50:56,780 --> 00:50:54,120 you know that to to injure them in some 963 00:50:59,510 --> 00:50:56,790 way is to invite retribution and there 964 00:51:02,680 --> 00:50:59,520 was a great deal of injury you know in 965 00:51:04,910 --> 00:51:02,690 their direction during that period the 966 00:51:07,220 --> 00:51:04,920 you know so it would be it would have 967 00:51:08,330 --> 00:51:07,230 been surprising had they not reacted 968 00:51:09,950 --> 00:51:08,340 partly because of that but also from a 969 00:51:11,630 --> 00:51:09,960 policy standpoint from the standpoint of 970 00:51:14,270 --> 00:51:11,640 a governments or from people who 971 00:51:16,460 --> 00:51:14,280 basically just sort of accept that 972 00:51:18,680 --> 00:51:16,470 degree of authoritarian governments as 973 00:51:20,870 --> 00:51:18,690 necessary something like anonymous that 974 00:51:23,090 --> 00:51:20,880 that comes out of nowhere and is if one 975 00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:23,100 year rating video game servers and 976 00:51:27,530 --> 00:51:25,290 making little little memes right and a 977 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:27,540 few years later is taking down is 978 00:51:30,410 --> 00:51:28,770 helping to take down the Tunisian 979 00:51:31,730 --> 00:51:30,420 governments and then a year later you've 980 00:51:33,620 --> 00:51:31,740 got the NSA director saying these people 981 00:51:35,210 --> 00:51:33,630 will be able to take out power plants 982 00:51:36,860 --> 00:51:35,220 soon he was lying about that I don't 983 00:51:38,150 --> 00:51:36,870 think you believe that but it was 984 00:51:40,580 --> 00:51:38,160 something that the the the trajectory 985 00:51:44,650 --> 00:51:40,590 I'm sure was very alarming to a lot of 986 00:51:50,270 --> 00:51:44,660 people and so okay so now take us up to 987 00:51:54,260 --> 00:51:50,280 that day of the arrest again it's not so 988 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:54,270 much about the sensationalism of it but 989 00:51:58,520 --> 00:51:55,890 there was it was it was a live video 990 00:52:02,630 --> 00:51:58,530 feed to I wanted to ask you about that 991 00:52:05,930 --> 00:52:02,640 were you anticipating anything on that 992 00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:05,940 specific day yes I was for one thing 993 00:52:09,620 --> 00:52:07,650 first of all they had rated me without 994 00:52:11,690 --> 00:52:09,630 arresting me in my mom's house as well 995 00:52:12,980 --> 00:52:11,700 and took in electronics all that they 996 00:52:14,930 --> 00:52:12,990 left the search warrant which michael 997 00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:14,940 hastings put up on BuzzFeed after that 998 00:52:18,020 --> 00:52:16,530 it's still up there you can see the 999 00:52:20,930 --> 00:52:18,030 exact companies they were looking into 1000 00:52:22,340 --> 00:52:20,940 with HBGary in-game systems our website 1001 00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:22,350 on which we compiled our information 1002 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:24,090 about these companies and my dream 1003 00:52:27,020 --> 00:52:25,530 project p.m. that was the that was 1004 00:52:28,430 --> 00:52:27,030 always the point of this that's that's 1005 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:28,440 you know that this the search the secret 1006 00:52:33,140 --> 00:52:30,450 search warrant started shortly after we 1007 00:52:36,290 --> 00:52:33,150 revealed all this stuff to the public so 1008 00:52:40,100 --> 00:52:36,300 and then I was I would received sort of 1009 00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:40,110 a tip on March 5th mm I'm sorry not much 1010 00:52:44,300 --> 00:52:42,090 but yeah March 5th 2012 about that rate 1011 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:44,310 I did was not tipped off about the 1012 00:52:49,030 --> 00:52:46,410 actual the next rate which is about six 1013 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:49,040 seven months later when they stormed my 1014 00:52:52,460 --> 00:52:51,090 apartment with a SWAT team that was 1015 00:52:53,990 --> 00:52:52,470 something that took me by surprise and 1016 00:52:55,419 --> 00:52:54,000 that I think that comes across and 1017 00:52:59,599 --> 00:52:55,429 recording this on 1018 00:53:03,469 --> 00:52:59,609 and what what what ultimately did they 1019 00:53:05,059 --> 00:53:03,479 do there did you think that this was did 1020 00:53:07,849 --> 00:53:05,069 you have any idea like this was your 1021 00:53:10,039 --> 00:53:07,859 last day of freedom for a number of 1022 00:53:13,489 --> 00:53:10,049 years did you think you rather get 1023 00:53:16,579 --> 00:53:13,499 released later on that day you know not 1024 00:53:17,870 --> 00:53:16,589 really after in the aftermath after the 1025 00:53:21,589 --> 00:53:17,880 raid which was you know went very 1026 00:53:23,209 --> 00:53:21,599 quickly it occurred to me that well 1027 00:53:25,309 --> 00:53:23,219 actually no at first I thought you know 1028 00:53:27,259 --> 00:53:25,319 I know exactly what these guys gonna 1029 00:53:28,999 --> 00:53:27,269 charge me with and I know it's nonsense 1030 00:53:32,569 --> 00:53:29,009 so surely it should be easy for me a 1031 00:53:34,519 --> 00:53:32,579 journalist who has a megaphone to bring 1032 00:53:36,529 --> 00:53:34,529 that to public attention and I'm sure 1033 00:53:38,989 --> 00:53:36,539 the courts worked the same way and so I 1034 00:53:41,299 --> 00:53:38,999 was very naive I didn't realize I had 1035 00:53:43,699 --> 00:53:41,309 never really dealt with the federal 1036 00:53:46,219 --> 00:53:43,709 courts before and I knew in the abstract 1037 00:53:50,089 --> 00:53:46,229 of the DOJ is a very imperfect Institute 1038 00:53:51,469 --> 00:53:50,099 but I did not know very much at all 1039 00:53:54,079 --> 00:53:51,479 compared to what I know now about that 1040 00:53:56,089 --> 00:53:54,089 system how much of it can you discuss 1041 00:53:59,899 --> 00:53:56,099 right now am i free to just ask what 1042 00:54:03,049 --> 00:53:59,909 else oh okay did they offer you that 1043 00:54:06,049 --> 00:54:03,059 first day Barrett did they offer you a 1044 00:54:07,699 --> 00:54:06,059 deal to flip no they hadn't actually 1045 00:54:09,169 --> 00:54:07,709 even charged me there was it was a 1046 00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:09,179 criminal complaint they used to come 1047 00:54:12,890 --> 00:54:10,890 raid me and then they had 30 days to 1048 00:54:14,209 --> 00:54:12,900 accomplish some charges and they charged 1049 00:54:15,949 --> 00:54:14,219 me with threatening a federal agent 1050 00:54:18,019 --> 00:54:15,959 based on my comment that I was going to 1051 00:54:20,959 --> 00:54:18,029 investigate this guy in the same way 1052 00:54:23,870 --> 00:54:20,969 this intelligence contractor had plotted 1053 00:54:26,059 --> 00:54:23,880 under the DOJ with their approval to 1054 00:54:27,799 --> 00:54:26,069 investigate the families of activists so 1055 00:54:29,899 --> 00:54:27,809 I knew it wasn't a violent threat I knew 1056 00:54:31,489 --> 00:54:29,909 who didn't violate the statue so when 1057 00:54:32,689 --> 00:54:31,499 those charges came I was still you know 1058 00:54:35,299 --> 00:54:32,699 like well you know there's there's 1059 00:54:38,269 --> 00:54:35,309 plenty of I can get out of this but know 1060 00:54:39,620 --> 00:54:38,279 that the FBI after those first charters 1061 00:54:41,059 --> 00:54:39,630 about a month after you know I was I was 1062 00:54:42,439 --> 00:54:41,069 in jail this whole time they did 1063 00:54:45,739 --> 00:54:42,449 approach my first attorney who was 1064 00:54:48,199 --> 00:54:45,749 public defender and said that if he you 1065 00:54:49,849 --> 00:54:48,209 know tell him that if he wants any kind 1066 00:54:51,979 --> 00:54:49,859 of plea bargain as an if he doesn't want 1067 00:54:53,870 --> 00:54:51,989 to go to trial and go do 20 years he's 1068 00:54:57,049 --> 00:54:53,880 gonna have to make a deal and I just 1069 00:54:58,399 --> 00:54:57,059 told him no and I got new lawyers in the 1070 00:55:00,589 --> 00:54:58,409 process of raising the money for those 1071 00:55:03,289 --> 00:55:00,599 lawyers the DOJ then came and tried to 1072 00:55:05,209 --> 00:55:03,299 seize that they not only seized the 1073 00:55:06,439 --> 00:55:05,219 money order tried to see somebody that 1074 00:55:08,630 --> 00:55:06,449 they shut it down for a few days in the 1075 00:55:10,339 --> 00:55:08,640 judge when Sheila made him give it back 1076 00:55:11,809 --> 00:55:10,349 but in the process they also sent us a 1077 00:55:13,130 --> 00:55:11,819 peanut so we pay which was the crowd 1078 00:55:16,029 --> 00:55:13,140 sort funding site that was being used 1079 00:55:18,470 --> 00:55:16,039 for my legal fund and they demanded the 1080 00:55:20,420 --> 00:55:18,480 identifying information of everyone who 1081 00:55:21,799 --> 00:55:20,430 had donated which is well beyond their 1082 00:55:23,509 --> 00:55:21,809 purview it later on they got sued for 1083 00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:23,519 that years later when it became evident 1084 00:55:28,700 --> 00:55:26,010 but uh so this this was this was that 1085 00:55:30,529 --> 00:55:28,710 this was a situation in which some crazy 1086 00:55:32,359 --> 00:55:30,539 new thing would happen every couple 1087 00:55:34,220 --> 00:55:32,369 weeks there was some like a gag order 1088 00:55:36,529 --> 00:55:34,230 there would be accusations from them in 1089 00:55:38,180 --> 00:55:36,539 filings they would they would they 1090 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:38,190 called my new lawyers before they were 1091 00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:39,930 actually my lawyers and kind of it which 1092 00:55:44,509 --> 00:55:42,690 is something that's not just not done it 1093 00:55:47,210 --> 00:55:44,519 was there was always new information and 1094 00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:47,220 new concerns and new threats so it's 1095 00:55:50,990 --> 00:55:48,690 really hard to assess at any given time 1096 00:55:54,620 --> 00:55:51,000 what I was in for now they made one more 1097 00:55:57,349 --> 00:55:54,630 offer later on after they had charged me 1098 00:55:58,910 --> 00:55:57,359 with these other I'll let you go into 1099 00:56:01,430 --> 00:55:58,920 this that's were moving forward on that 1100 00:56:03,980 --> 00:56:01,440 one but they did eventually try to get 1101 00:56:06,769 --> 00:56:03,990 me to Cle to one count of aggravated 1102 00:56:09,019 --> 00:56:06,779 identity theft as opposed to the eleven 1103 00:56:10,970 --> 00:56:09,029 counts they had hit me with I was facing 1104 00:56:13,370 --> 00:56:10,980 a minimum of 22 years in prison on top 1105 00:56:16,130 --> 00:56:13,380 of the other charges altogether facing 1106 00:56:17,900 --> 00:56:16,140 105 years worth of exposure they offered 1107 00:56:20,660 --> 00:56:17,910 me two to plea to one of those counts of 1108 00:56:22,910 --> 00:56:20,670 fraud and I turned him down because I 1109 00:56:24,170 --> 00:56:22,920 was loud whatever plead a fraud now I 1110 00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:24,180 certainly wouldn't plead a fraud in that 1111 00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:27,210 context it was it was had I done so they 1112 00:56:31,460 --> 00:56:29,130 would have been able to prosecute anyone 1113 00:56:34,549 --> 00:56:31,470 who links to stolen information in the 1114 00:56:37,430 --> 00:56:34,559 future so and all of this sounds so 1115 00:56:39,349 --> 00:56:37,440 criminal and you were just a journalist 1116 00:56:43,579 --> 00:56:39,359 you know and that's the other part about 1117 00:56:46,339 --> 00:56:43,589 it you know being a spokesman or not for 1118 00:56:49,670 --> 00:56:46,349 anonymous really you know we're talking 1119 00:56:53,470 --> 00:56:49,680 about a journalist with the career that 1120 00:56:55,460 --> 00:56:53,480 was doing these things to disrupt but 1121 00:56:57,529 --> 00:56:55,470 ultimately that is what we're talking 1122 00:56:59,839 --> 00:56:57,539 about here but they wanted to make this 1123 00:57:01,279 --> 00:56:59,849 into something that it wasn't and that's 1124 00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:01,289 exactly what they do 1125 00:57:06,769 --> 00:57:04,890 was it looking back did they ever scare 1126 00:57:09,650 --> 00:57:06,779 you did they intimidate you with these 1127 00:57:12,589 --> 00:57:09,660 with these charges and with these you 1128 00:57:15,109 --> 00:57:12,599 know a sensory and prison kind of thing 1129 00:57:18,769 --> 00:57:15,119 Oh certainly I spent two and a half 1130 00:57:20,450 --> 00:57:18,779 years in pretrial detention but there's 1131 00:57:22,130 --> 00:57:20,460 plenty of time to think oh my and my mi 1132 00:57:23,750 --> 00:57:22,140 just my over estimate 1133 00:57:25,370 --> 00:57:23,760 my abilities here if I got into 1134 00:57:26,990 --> 00:57:25,380 something that I can't get out of right 1135 00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:27,000 put plenty of time to reflect on that 1136 00:57:33,950 --> 00:57:31,170 but ultimately we developed a plan that 1137 00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:33,960 would not only hopefully get me out of 1138 00:57:39,410 --> 00:57:36,450 prison and at some point in the in the 1139 00:57:40,849 --> 00:57:39,420 medium future but also finish our work 1140 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:40,859 bring a great deal more of attention to 1141 00:57:45,500 --> 00:57:43,890 these companies essentially use the DOJ 1142 00:57:47,029 --> 00:57:45,510 for that end as an obviously everything 1143 00:57:48,589 --> 00:57:47,039 they did was another opportunity to go 1144 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:48,599 out there and say here's the search 1145 00:57:51,349 --> 00:57:50,250 warrant listing these firms these are 1146 00:57:53,569 --> 00:57:51,359 the firms that Barrett Brown was 1147 00:57:55,250 --> 00:57:53,579 investigating and wrote about and in 1148 00:57:57,440 --> 00:57:55,260 some cases exposed their private 1149 00:57:58,730 --> 00:57:57,450 programs this is what they were after 1150 00:58:00,650 --> 00:57:58,740 them for this is what the search 1151 00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:00,660 warrants actually say these other things 1152 00:58:04,069 --> 00:58:02,970 are red herrings and that's okay and so 1153 00:58:05,690 --> 00:58:04,079 it we were affected but nothing that 1154 00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:05,700 that everyone from the New York Times 1155 00:58:09,140 --> 00:58:07,650 New York Times read and to op eds both 1156 00:58:12,380 --> 00:58:09,150 saying you know this is Valley to our 1157 00:58:14,390 --> 00:58:12,390 charges Washington Times mainstream 1158 00:58:17,870 --> 00:58:14,400 outlets that again normally are not very 1159 00:58:19,190 --> 00:58:17,880 good on picking up on these nuances this 1160 00:58:22,250 --> 00:58:19,200 time they did pick it up and so 1161 00:58:25,250 --> 00:58:22,260 ultimately we put a pretty big dent in 1162 00:58:27,140 --> 00:58:25,260 their credibility and I think open to 1163 00:58:28,940 --> 00:58:27,150 wide open the window a little bit wider 1164 00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:28,950 towards these intelligence apparatus and 1165 00:58:32,660 --> 00:58:30,930 of course by that time Snowden you know 1166 00:58:34,309 --> 00:58:32,670 while I was still in jail Snowden came 1167 00:58:36,079 --> 00:58:34,319 out and that change the conversation 1168 00:58:37,670 --> 00:58:36,089 further so all in all is a pretty good 1169 00:58:40,329 --> 00:58:37,680 couple of years for intelligence 1170 00:58:43,730 --> 00:58:40,339 contracting journalism now and there is 1171 00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:43,740 also to clear things up let's put 1172 00:58:48,380 --> 00:58:44,970 something on the record I want the 1173 00:58:50,900 --> 00:58:48,390 audience to understand ultimately what 1174 00:58:53,150 --> 00:58:50,910 came down here what which was Stratfor 1175 00:58:55,609 --> 00:58:53,160 which wasn't in the original set of 1176 00:58:58,009 --> 00:58:55,619 charges but that's ultimately which you 1177 00:58:59,599 --> 00:58:58,019 were convicted on correct right so what 1178 00:59:00,920 --> 00:58:59,609 happened was we had these hackers and 1179 00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:00,930 Anonymous had originally hacked these 1180 00:59:04,190 --> 00:59:02,490 other companies HBGary and all that and 1181 00:59:05,630 --> 00:59:04,200 we exposed a bunch of stuff and those 1182 00:59:07,430 --> 00:59:05,640 were really the the emails they took 1183 00:59:09,859 --> 00:59:07,440 from that company which had claimed it 1184 00:59:12,230 --> 00:59:09,869 could identify our secret leadership you 1185 00:59:14,660 --> 00:59:12,240 know quote-unquote the emails that they 1186 00:59:17,470 --> 00:59:14,670 took were instrumental in flooring 1187 00:59:20,359 --> 00:59:17,480 several very bizarre plots including uh 1188 00:59:22,910 --> 00:59:20,369 attacks on Wikileaks the setting up of 1189 00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:22,920 activists on fraud charges DDoS attacks 1190 00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:24,210 with the same source that our nons 1191 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:26,250 yet rated for and arrested and charged 1192 00:59:30,589 --> 00:59:28,890 for all the time and then later on eight 1193 00:59:32,839 --> 00:59:30,599 months later so well we're now in now 1194 00:59:34,579 --> 00:59:32,849 focused on these companies there's 1195 00:59:35,930 --> 00:59:34,589 another hack that Jeremy Hammond another 1196 00:59:38,420 --> 00:59:35,940 anonymous hacker is involved 1197 00:59:40,930 --> 00:59:38,430 and that some of the people in my 1198 00:59:43,039 --> 00:59:40,940 project PM group were also aware of and 1199 00:59:45,829 --> 00:59:43,049 that was a hack of Stratford which is a 1200 00:59:46,849 --> 00:59:45,839 firm in Austin that that supposedly you 1201 00:59:48,380 --> 00:59:46,859 know wasn't the business of providing 1202 00:59:51,140 --> 00:59:48,390 sort of risk assessment to their 1203 00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:51,150 high-end clientele that sort of thing it 1204 00:59:54,710 --> 00:59:53,130 turns out based on the emails stolen 1205 00:59:55,220 --> 00:59:54,720 this time and later give them to 1206 00:59:58,819 --> 00:59:55,230 WikiLeaks 1207 01:00:01,400 --> 00:59:58,829 that's this firm was spying for instance 1208 01:00:04,370 --> 01:00:01,410 on activists in Bhopal India who were 1209 01:00:06,079 --> 01:00:04,380 trying to get Union Carbide to pay more 1210 01:00:08,839 --> 01:00:06,089 restitution to the people that they had 1211 01:00:11,990 --> 01:00:08,849 maimed or left family members dead in 1212 01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:12,000 the 1980 you know Bhopal disaster the 1213 01:00:15,230 --> 01:00:14,010 Dow Chemical deal that sort of thing 1214 01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:15,240 they were collaborating with the FBI 1215 01:00:19,849 --> 01:00:17,730 against private citizens that the FBI 1216 01:00:22,609 --> 01:00:19,859 was giving their files to this private 1217 01:00:25,730 --> 01:00:22,619 company at the behest of their clients 1218 01:00:27,829 --> 01:00:25,740 like coca-cola for instance just very 1219 01:00:29,990 --> 01:00:27,839 bizarre stuff all you know any any one 1220 01:00:32,210 --> 01:00:30,000 of which of these stories I think should 1221 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:32,220 have been an eye-opener for people but 1222 01:00:36,859 --> 01:00:35,490 anyway so that that that hack was what 1223 01:00:39,020 --> 01:00:36,869 they originally decided to charge me in 1224 01:00:41,599 --> 01:00:39,030 connection with and you know at first 1225 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:41,609 they charged me with having copied and 1226 01:00:46,010 --> 01:00:44,010 pasted a link that Jeremy Hammond had 1227 01:00:48,529 --> 01:00:46,020 posted into one of these anonymous chat 1228 01:00:50,029 --> 01:00:48,539 servers where we do all this work I had 1229 01:00:52,010 --> 01:00:50,039 copied the link pasted it into my 1230 01:00:54,109 --> 01:00:52,020 project PM IRC Internet Relay Chat 1231 01:00:55,549 --> 01:00:54,119 server for my journalists researchers to 1232 01:00:57,559 --> 01:00:55,559 look at thinking it was some of the 1233 01:00:59,180 --> 01:00:57,569 emails mm-hm and it turned out those are 1234 01:01:00,680 --> 01:00:59,190 protic card numbers and and as you can 1235 01:01:02,569 --> 01:01:00,690 see from the transcript which was part 1236 01:01:04,039 --> 01:01:02,579 of the court record it was pretty clear 1237 01:01:05,829 --> 01:01:04,049 that I didn't know those credit card 1238 01:01:07,700 --> 01:01:05,839 numbers I asked him what was in those 1239 01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:07,710 you know he says I work right he says 1240 01:01:10,579 --> 01:01:09,210 it's like B and C something like some 1241 01:01:12,650 --> 01:01:10,589 jargon I'm like oh okay whatever 1242 01:01:15,529 --> 01:01:12,660 government forensics show I never opened 1243 01:01:16,460 --> 01:01:15,539 the file they were already anyways it 1244 01:01:17,930 --> 01:01:16,470 was just it was one of those things 1245 01:01:19,099 --> 01:01:17,940 where just they had they had to charge 1246 01:01:21,140 --> 01:01:19,109 me of something and they know that even 1247 01:01:22,519 --> 01:01:21,150 if it's untenable and of course they had 1248 01:01:24,829 --> 01:01:22,529 to drop all those charges all 11 of 1249 01:01:27,230 --> 01:01:24,839 those counts for a number of reasons but 1250 01:01:28,660 --> 01:01:27,240 you know it wasn't something to charge 1251 01:01:30,950 --> 01:01:28,670 me with now eventually what I pled to 1252 01:01:33,410 --> 01:01:30,960 after after they had to drop those 1253 01:01:34,849 --> 01:01:33,420 charges which was a real embarrassment 1254 01:01:36,890 --> 01:01:34,859 to them because of the centerpiece of 1255 01:01:39,109 --> 01:01:36,900 their case they wanted me to plea to 1256 01:01:41,990 --> 01:01:39,119 something uh something in connection 1257 01:01:43,849 --> 01:01:42,000 with you know the year of active 1258 01:01:46,069 --> 01:01:43,859 anonymous so what I pled to was 1259 01:01:48,319 --> 01:01:46,079 accessory after the fact the Stratfor 1260 01:01:49,580 --> 01:01:48,329 hack because what I did was when and 1261 01:01:51,470 --> 01:01:49,590 that when the Hackett initially 1262 01:01:53,420 --> 01:01:51,480 occurred and when Jeremy Hammond and a 1263 01:01:55,250 --> 01:01:53,430 few other people were debating about 1264 01:01:57,620 --> 01:01:55,260 what to do with these emails they had 1265 01:01:59,630 --> 01:01:57,630 taken a couple of us for arguing that 1266 01:02:00,500 --> 01:01:59,640 you don't dump them online we don't know 1267 01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:00,510 what's in them there could be 1268 01:02:04,070 --> 01:02:01,650 information in there that could get 1269 01:02:06,110 --> 01:02:04,080 someone hurts perhaps informants under a 1270 01:02:09,530 --> 01:02:06,120 foreign dictatorship you know who spoke 1271 01:02:12,140 --> 01:02:09,540 to them and so I called the company 1272 01:02:14,300 --> 01:02:12,150 Stratford called its executives on the 1273 01:02:16,430 --> 01:02:14,310 phone and offered to handle any 1274 01:02:18,500 --> 01:02:16,440 redactions that need to be made if these 1275 01:02:23,210 --> 01:02:18,510 emails were to indeed be dumped online 1276 01:02:24,770 --> 01:02:23,220 and that is ultimately what's and it's 1277 01:02:26,210 --> 01:02:24,780 something that the DOJ never mentioned 1278 01:02:28,250 --> 01:02:26,220 in its earlier filings but by the time 1279 01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:28,260 we got into this two-year process of 1280 01:02:33,050 --> 01:02:29,970 them having to drop all these charges 1281 01:02:35,120 --> 01:02:33,060 that was enough for them so when you 1282 01:02:38,090 --> 01:02:35,130 hear people who are national security 1283 01:02:39,740 --> 01:02:38,100 enthusiasts talk about how their big 1284 01:02:42,260 --> 01:02:39,750 concern is that is that people might get 1285 01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:42,270 hurt from these dumps keep in mind 1286 01:02:45,230 --> 01:02:43,650 that's what I tried to do I tried to 1287 01:02:46,790 --> 01:02:45,240 rectify that and that's what they used 1288 01:02:49,130 --> 01:02:46,800 against me they don't really care if 1289 01:02:50,510 --> 01:02:49,140 someone gets killed over this they it's 1290 01:02:53,180 --> 01:02:50,520 helpful to them it helps make their case 1291 01:02:55,070 --> 01:02:53,190 and helps helps them argue for one more 1292 01:02:57,020 --> 01:02:55,080 classification now we're gonna head 1293 01:02:58,070 --> 01:02:57,030 towards a break here in about 90 seconds 1294 01:03:02,830 --> 01:02:58,080 so I'll see if I can get a quick answer 1295 01:03:06,260 --> 01:03:02,840 out of you it to me and to others the 1296 01:03:10,220 --> 01:03:06,270 Stratfor hack and the way that it was 1297 01:03:13,910 --> 01:03:10,230 done was really a sting operation wasn't 1298 01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:13,920 it wasn't it more like entrapment it was 1299 01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:15,090 it was something that had actually 1300 01:03:18,620 --> 01:03:16,770 initiated with some some run-of-the-mill 1301 01:03:20,210 --> 01:03:18,630 criminal hackers I think out of Eastern 1302 01:03:22,250 --> 01:03:20,220 Europe and they had taken control the 1303 01:03:24,770 --> 01:03:22,260 server secretly at some point and then 1304 01:03:26,630 --> 01:03:24,780 at some point that control was handed 1305 01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:26,640 over in parts to other people who miss 1306 01:03:30,050 --> 01:03:28,290 and that made it way way too anonymous 1307 01:03:31,370 --> 01:03:30,060 so there were several people including 1308 01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:31,380 myself who knew that strapper was 1309 01:03:35,210 --> 01:03:33,210 compromised right one of the people who 1310 01:03:37,100 --> 01:03:35,220 knew it was Sabu Hector Montsegur who 1311 01:03:38,750 --> 01:03:37,110 was one of the major Anonymous hackers 1312 01:03:40,310 --> 01:03:38,760 who had been involved in these previous 1313 01:03:43,490 --> 01:03:40,320 hacks that had killed all these emails 1314 01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:43,500 and who unbeknownst to us had been 1315 01:03:49,790 --> 01:03:45,930 secretly discovered found identified and 1316 01:03:51,500 --> 01:03:49,800 turned by the FBI seven months prior so 1317 01:03:54,170 --> 01:03:51,510 this strapped for hack and everything 1318 01:03:56,720 --> 01:03:54,180 else that Sabu presided over was allowed 1319 01:03:59,960 --> 01:03:56,730 to happen by the FBI and that is the 1320 01:04:01,970 --> 01:03:59,970 that's the part that's the bite that 1321 01:04:03,380 --> 01:04:01,980 that is that's the real criminal 1322 01:04:06,650 --> 01:04:03,390 activity here 1323 01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:06,660 and is something that has been discussed 1324 01:04:13,370 --> 01:04:10,890 but not exploited I'm sorry I had to say 1325 01:04:17,060 --> 01:04:13,380 that word but it's really the true part 1326 01:04:19,490 --> 01:04:17,070 about this Sabu this was entrapment it 1327 01:04:22,490 --> 01:04:19,500 was entrapment through and through there 1328 01:04:24,950 --> 01:04:22,500 wasn't any way to well obviously there 1329 01:04:28,370 --> 01:04:24,960 wasn't but wasn't there a legal way 1330 01:04:30,950 --> 01:04:28,380 looking back to to take advantage of the 1331 01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:30,960 entrapment part of this and have all of 1332 01:04:34,700 --> 01:04:33,090 this go away there were all sorts of 1333 01:04:36,530 --> 01:04:34,710 things very much like that I mean you're 1334 01:04:38,330 --> 01:04:36,540 absolutely right that and several other 1335 01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:38,340 aspects including information they 1336 01:04:41,540 --> 01:04:39,690 concealed from my lawyers and which 1337 01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:41,550 ended up in the press after I was 1338 01:04:47,300 --> 01:04:44,130 sentenced showing showing again that I 1339 01:04:49,910 --> 01:04:47,310 had no intention of you know of losing 1340 01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:49,920 credit card numbers that should have 1341 01:04:53,630 --> 01:04:52,290 been introduced we had a legal team that 1342 01:04:55,880 --> 01:04:53,640 involved seven different people who did 1343 01:04:57,200 --> 01:04:55,890 not necessarily mesh well and some 1344 01:04:59,360 --> 01:04:57,210 things that were you know pretty major 1345 01:05:00,440 --> 01:04:59,370 were actually lost in the cracks and I 1346 01:05:03,050 --> 01:05:00,450 tried to bring up a lot of them myself 1347 01:05:05,630 --> 01:05:03,060 in my allocution when I spoke to the 1348 01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:05,640 judge for 10 minutes of made public well 1349 01:05:08,030 --> 01:05:06,690 you know that's just not enough 1350 01:05:10,310 --> 01:05:08,040 and this judge in particular was just 1351 01:05:12,500 --> 01:05:10,320 not he was not terribly fastidious about 1352 01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:12,510 making sure that we're doing things by 1353 01:05:15,860 --> 01:05:14,250 the book that's not unusual among 1354 01:05:19,400 --> 01:05:15,870 federal judges unfortunately yeah the 1355 01:05:20,960 --> 01:05:19,410 crime was allowed to happen if the FBI 1356 01:05:24,590 --> 01:05:20,970 we're gonna take a break right here but 1357 01:05:26,420 --> 01:05:24,600 if the FBI was really on the up-and-up 1358 01:05:29,300 --> 01:05:26,430 and honest which they're not of course 1359 01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:29,310 but they would not have allowed the 1360 01:05:33,380 --> 01:05:31,730 crime to happen and allow all of these 1361 01:05:35,540 --> 01:05:33,390 individuals to go to prison 1362 01:05:38,180 --> 01:05:35,550 it's an incredible situation our guest 1363 01:05:39,860 -->

01:11:03,330 for that length of time now being you 1469 01:11:06,709 --> 01:11:04,830 know free while you're on your way to a 1470 01:11:12,050 --> 01:11:06,719 halfway house you're not exactly free 1471 01:11:16,419 --> 01:11:12,060 but what was that like did did you have 1472 01:11:19,820 --> 01:11:16,429 any issues with reality I mean because 1473 01:11:21,140 --> 01:11:19,830 now you can do things like walk around 1474 01:11:24,110 --> 01:11:21,150 and change your mind and not have 1475 01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:24,120 somebody around you and and and and the 1476 01:11:30,890 --> 01:11:26,730 confinement part you're free again does 1477 01:11:32,899 --> 01:11:30,900 that take a little bit of adjusting yeah 1478 01:11:34,280 --> 01:11:32,909 readjusting back to civilian life was 1479 01:11:36,950 --> 01:11:34,290 harder than adjusted to prison in the 1480 01:11:39,110 --> 01:11:36,960 first place I can only imagine I can 1481 01:11:42,229 --> 01:11:39,120 only imagine that there was a shot of 1482 01:11:42,690 --> 01:11:42,239 you and where you guys stopped at like a 1483 01:11:43,890 --> 01:11:42,700 truck 1484 01:11:48,630 --> 01:11:43,900 stop or something when you were driving 1485 01:11:50,340 --> 01:11:48,640 to the halfway house and you were like 1486 01:11:54,630 --> 01:11:50,350 in a bathroom I think you know what I'm 1487 01:11:57,210 --> 01:11:54,640 talking about but I looked to me like 1488 01:12:01,500 --> 01:11:57,220 you were you were right there like wow 1489 01:12:02,970 --> 01:12:01,510 okay a you weren't comfortable I guess 1490 01:12:03,450 --> 01:12:02,980 it's the best way to put it you weren't 1491 01:12:06,090 --> 01:12:03,460 were you 1492 01:12:08,040 --> 01:12:06,100 oh no not at all but for one thing we 1493 01:12:11,340 --> 01:12:08,050 had we had a certain amount of time to 1494 01:12:13,830 --> 01:12:11,350 get to get from the border of Mexico 1495 01:12:15,870 --> 01:12:13,840 where my prison was in South Texas to 1496 01:12:18,090 --> 01:12:15,880 Dallas and they originally did not give 1497 01:12:19,350 --> 01:12:18,100 us sufficient time and I happen to know 1498 01:12:21,570 --> 01:12:19,360 from talking other inmates that they 1499 01:12:24,060 --> 01:12:21,580 will put out another warrant for you if 1500 01:12:25,350 --> 01:12:24,070 you are late and unaccounted for at that 1501 01:12:26,700 --> 01:12:25,360 halfway house so I had first tried to 1502 01:12:28,890 --> 01:12:26,710 argue for more time that we would have 1503 01:12:31,620 --> 01:12:28,900 seven hours to drive this thing that 1504 01:12:33,270 --> 01:12:31,630 takes about seven hours and you know we 1505 01:12:36,270 --> 01:12:33,280 were there making a documentary about me 1506 01:12:39,810 --> 01:12:36,280 in time so we had a lot you know lots of 1507 01:12:42,510 --> 01:12:39,820 worry abouts and having said that just 1508 01:12:44,940 --> 01:12:42,520 in general that the halfway house I was 1509 01:12:46,440 --> 01:12:44,950 not excited about that and I actually 1510 01:12:47,850 --> 01:12:46,450 considered staying in prison for the 1511 01:12:49,380 --> 01:12:47,860 last six months rather than take that 1512 01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:49,390 halfway house time the reason they gave 1513 01:12:51,780 --> 01:12:50,650 me so much halfway house time which is 1514 01:12:53,550 --> 01:12:51,790 six months is actually pretty unusual 1515 01:12:54,870 --> 01:12:53,560 these days is to get me out of there 1516 01:12:57,390 --> 01:12:54,880 because I was filing a lot of 1517 01:13:00,120 --> 01:12:57,400 administrative remedies the 1518 01:13:01,650 --> 01:13:00,130 administrative remedy forms based on due 1519 01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:01,660 process violations obviously I was 1520 01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:03,850 writing a column that was pretty popular 1521 01:13:07,890 --> 01:13:05,290 and won the National Magazine Award 1522 01:13:11,310 --> 01:13:07,900 about that prison and about the DOP in 1523 01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:11,320 general so they didn't want me there but 1524 01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:13,210 you know the halfway house if you go to 1525 01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:15,010 a whole nother thing and now it's you 1526 01:13:20,370 --> 01:13:18,730 know you it doesn't have the same charms 1527 01:13:26,670 --> 01:13:20,380 its prison - oh so I'll tell you that 1528 01:13:32,130 --> 01:13:26,680 there's the same charms okay Wow okay 1529 01:13:35,370 --> 01:13:32,140 okay now let's let's go to today since 1530 01:13:38,900 --> 01:13:35,380 your release which was November 2016 the 1531 01:13:41,880 --> 01:13:38,910 you have seen this country go through 1532 01:13:44,430 --> 01:13:41,890 the world goes who through some crazy 1533 01:13:48,600 --> 01:13:44,440 things with not only Internet privacy 1534 01:13:53,510 --> 01:13:48,610 certainly WikiLeaks and and emails data 1535 01:13:56,130 --> 01:13:53,520 mining fake news crazy controlled 1536 01:13:59,010 --> 01:13:56,140 journalism with an agenda 1537 01:14:02,240 --> 01:13:59,020 all of the things that you had warned us 1538 01:14:06,060 --> 01:14:02,250 about in your writings leading up to 1539 01:14:09,270 --> 01:14:06,070 2016 here we are today 1540 01:14:10,770 --> 01:14:09,280 what does anything surprise you right 1541 01:14:15,030 --> 01:14:10,780 now where we are with the internet 1542 01:14:18,960 --> 01:14:15,040 privacy journalism mass media and fake 1543 01:14:20,520 --> 01:14:18,970 news I'm mostly the one thing that keeps 1544 01:14:23,670 --> 01:14:20,530 surprising me is the extent to which 1545 01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:23,680 people have just given up on nuance it's 1546 01:14:28,140 --> 01:14:25,810 very difficult for me to make an 1547 01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:28,150 argument that someone look at and Wrekin 1548 01:14:34,950 --> 01:14:32,050 and believe is on route to another 1549 01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:34,960 arguments as in if I say look the FBI's 1550 01:14:38,270 --> 01:14:36,010 corrupt look at this 1551 01:14:40,890 --> 01:14:38,280 people think that I'm supporting Trump 1552 01:14:44,040 --> 01:14:40,900 if I say the exact table if I say you 1553 01:14:46,020 --> 01:14:44,050 know something on the exact opposite of 1554 01:14:47,460 --> 01:14:46,030 the party line people will just take 1555 01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:47,470 that and extrapolate from it so it's 1556 01:14:53,940 --> 01:14:50,890 very hard to say look you know these 1557 01:14:56,640 --> 01:14:53,950 these organizations the DOJ the FBI the 1558 01:14:58,680 --> 01:14:56,650 CIA we should not be we should not be 1559 01:14:59,850 --> 01:14:58,690 cozying up to them regardless of what 1560 01:15:01,530 --> 01:14:59,860 you know what you think of the 1561 01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:01,540 investigation these are not 1562 01:15:06,330 --> 01:15:04,090 fundamentally sound groups they never 1563 01:15:07,860 --> 01:15:06,340 really have been they've differed so 1564 01:15:10,050 --> 01:15:07,870 it's it's people have become I think 1565 01:15:11,460 --> 01:15:10,060 more intellectually dishonest I think I 1566 01:15:15,930 --> 01:15:11,470 think obviously people have gotten the 1567 01:15:18,300 --> 01:15:15,940 opportunity to avoid reasons criticism 1568 01:15:19,650 --> 01:15:18,310 of their positions by going online and 1569 01:15:21,870 --> 01:15:19,660 just reading you know a certain array of 1570 01:15:23,850 --> 01:15:21,880 people who think like them and they have 1571 01:15:27,360 --> 01:15:23,860 they have not availed themselves the 1572 01:15:29,190 --> 01:15:27,370 opportunity to to look at look at all 1573 01:15:30,810 --> 01:15:29,200 the facts and judge both positions on 1574 01:15:31,890 --> 01:15:30,820 any issue before making up their mind 1575 01:15:34,470 --> 01:15:31,900 and that's that selling it was already 1576 01:15:36,900 --> 01:15:34,480 happening but the extent to which that's 1577 01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:36,910 gotten worse that that's what's 1578 01:15:42,780 --> 01:15:39,610 horrified be most it seems to have 1579 01:15:46,500 --> 01:15:42,790 happened pretty quickly now it built up 1580 01:15:48,780 --> 01:15:46,510 to this point for for a you know a 1581 01:15:51,330 --> 01:15:48,790 couple of decades but certainly the 1582 01:15:54,930 --> 01:15:51,340 divisive 'no sand the effectiveness of 1583 01:15:57,900 --> 01:15:54,940 of different media platforms out there 1584 01:16:01,050 --> 01:15:57,910 with the internet to divide and caused 1585 01:16:03,360 --> 01:16:01,060 this anger in and the anger now is 1586 01:16:05,580 --> 01:16:03,370 everywhere is there a way to pull it 1587 01:16:08,910 --> 01:16:05,590 back and get everybody back on the same 1588 01:16:09,400 --> 01:16:08,920 page no I don't think there is I think I 1589 01:16:10,870 --> 01:16:09,410 think 1590 01:16:12,790 --> 01:16:10,880 we were ill-served by all the rhetoric 1591 01:16:15,160 --> 01:16:12,800 about this being one nation and we're 1592 01:16:16,450 --> 01:16:15,170 all you know deep down where we have fun 1593 01:16:18,490 --> 01:16:16,460 of no things in common we really don't 1594 01:16:19,540 --> 01:16:18,500 there's this is a fractured nation and 1595 01:16:21,190 --> 01:16:19,550 there's no reason to expect that it 1596 01:16:23,110 --> 01:16:21,200 shouldn't be there there are not 1597 01:16:25,450 --> 01:16:23,120 fundamentals in which everyone agrees on 1598 01:16:29,130 --> 01:16:25,460 it's just not the case and so I think 1599 01:16:31,420 --> 01:16:29,140 the best strategy going forward is for 1600 01:16:33,610 --> 01:16:31,430 those people who agree on these sort of 1601 01:16:34,990 --> 01:16:33,620 open society ideas in general they're 1602 01:16:36,850 --> 01:16:35,000 opposed the surveillance state a post 1603 01:16:39,340 --> 01:16:36,860 the police state sort of things of that 1604 01:16:42,030 --> 01:16:39,350 nature should work together more 1605 01:16:44,020 --> 01:16:42,040 efficiently figure out how they can 1606 01:16:47,020 --> 01:16:44,030 address their fundamentals and how they 1607 01:16:50,920 --> 01:16:47,030 organize how they how they try to affect 1608 01:16:54,100 --> 01:16:50,930 change and just sort of prepare prepare 1609 01:16:56,650 --> 01:16:54,110 for whatever may happen the the warnings 1610 01:17:02,800 --> 01:16:56,660 were there right the warnings were there 1611 01:17:06,340 --> 01:17:02,810 like 1984 brave new world and we all 1612 01:17:08,380 --> 01:17:06,350 knew that this day could arrive but we 1613 01:17:10,960 --> 01:17:08,390 considered it brilliant writing and 1614 01:17:14,230 --> 01:17:10,970 science fiction I don't think anybody is 1615 01:17:17,710 --> 01:17:14,240 surprised where we are today that we are 1616 01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:17,720 here but we indeed are and these things 1617 01:17:23,590 --> 01:17:20,690 have come to pass and it seems like 1618 01:17:26,650 --> 01:17:23,600 nobody wants to do anything about it but 1619 01:17:28,690 --> 01:17:26,660 well except for yourself and and me I I 1620 01:17:31,840 --> 01:17:28,700 don't I don't get it 1621 01:17:33,130 --> 01:17:31,850 why everybody was aware of it but now 1622 01:17:36,100 --> 01:17:33,140 they don't want to do anything 1623 01:17:37,750 --> 01:17:36,110 I think civic virtue whether it be the 1624 01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:37,760 forms that we may agree with or disagree 1625 01:17:44,680 --> 01:17:42,010 with you know just the impulse to act 1626 01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:44,690 self risk if necessary that was so it 1627 01:17:48,580 --> 01:17:46,250 was very much in play in the 60s and 70s 1628 01:17:50,860 --> 01:17:48,590 on on both sides whether it be 1629 01:17:52,630 --> 01:17:50,870 Nixon's people or the you know anti-war 1630 01:17:55,780 --> 01:17:52,640 people and so forth people were more 1631 01:17:57,670 --> 01:17:55,790 willing to do unusual adventurous things 1632 01:18:00,070 --> 01:17:57,680 if they thought it was necessary that's 1633 01:18:02,050 --> 01:18:00,080 something that is that is slowly just 1634 01:18:03,670 --> 01:18:02,060 deteriorated in this country as far as I 1635 01:18:05,380 --> 01:18:03,680 can tell you know I was born at 21 so 1636 01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:05,390 what do I know but from what I can tell 1637 01:18:08,590 --> 01:18:06,770 and from what I can hear from people who 1638 01:18:10,660 --> 01:18:08,600 were around this is a different 1639 01:18:13,270 --> 01:18:10,670 population people are different people 1640 01:18:17,140 --> 01:18:13,280 my age in particular you know the 1641 01:18:18,580 --> 01:18:17,150 internet which I have obviously the you 1642 01:18:20,770 --> 01:18:18,590 know depend upon for the things I want 1643 01:18:24,569 --> 01:18:20,780 to do I think it does have a very 1644 01:18:29,889 --> 01:18:28,000 the adventurism that the adventurism 1645 01:18:32,790 --> 01:18:29,899 that was the norm back in the 18th and 1646 01:18:36,219 --> 01:18:32,800 19th centuries and now there's another 1647 01:18:38,589 --> 01:18:36,229 fascinating thing about this that not 1648 01:18:41,919 --> 01:18:38,599 only that you write about but I think 1649 01:18:44,049 --> 01:18:41,929 while becoming very aware is that in the 1650 01:18:47,259 --> 01:18:44,059 18th and 19th centuries certainly going 1651 01:18:50,379 --> 01:18:47,269 all the way up to the 80s before the 1652 01:18:54,159 --> 01:18:50,389 internet it was a slow process for 1653 01:18:55,299 --> 01:18:54,169 change or to affect emotions it was it 1654 01:18:57,850 --> 01:18:55,309 was slow a lot of it was even 1655 01:18:58,719 --> 01:18:57,860 word-of-mouth or flyers or magazines and 1656 01:19:02,949 --> 01:18:58,729 that kind of thing 1657 01:19:05,529 --> 01:19:02,959 today it is down to nanoseconds where 1658 01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:05,539 you have millions of people that are 1659 01:19:11,649 --> 01:19:08,570 reacting literally at the click of a 1660 01:19:13,540 --> 01:19:11,659 mouse worldwide that is something that 1661 01:19:15,729 --> 01:19:13,550 is completely spun out of control and 1662 01:19:18,819 --> 01:19:15,739 the man and and the media outlets 1663 01:19:23,889 --> 01:19:18,829 understand this it's a nanosecond away 1664 01:19:27,189 --> 01:19:23,899 from crazy emotions there are there are 1665 01:19:29,169 --> 01:19:27,199 several just vastly fundamental changes 1666 01:19:31,299 --> 01:19:29,179 of the sort we've never seen this degree 1667 01:19:33,159 --> 01:19:31,309 of that have come into play sort of all 1668 01:19:33,719 --> 01:19:33,169 centered around the internet since I was 1669 01:19:36,040 --> 01:19:33,729 born 1670 01:19:38,169 --> 01:19:36,050 historically speaking you know going 1671 01:19:39,339 --> 01:19:38,179 from the 1980s situation where you do 1672 01:19:41,560 --> 01:19:39,349 have you have international phone calls 1673 01:19:43,060 --> 01:19:41,570 and you have letters and and all that 1674 01:19:45,939 --> 01:19:43,070 we're kind of if we consider ourself a 1675 01:19:49,869 --> 01:19:45,949 connected world going to 15 20 years 1676 01:19:51,969 --> 01:19:49,879 later it is a fundamental difference in 1677 01:19:53,529 --> 01:19:51,979 the environments to have anyone in the 1678 01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:53,539 world be able to collaborate with anyone 1679 01:19:56,589 --> 01:19:55,010 else in the world that is something that 1680 01:19:57,699 --> 01:19:56,599 had human history have you always had 1681 01:19:59,500 --> 01:19:57,709 that power have we had sometimes 1682 01:20:01,719 --> 01:19:59,510 telepathy whereby you could have 1683 01:20:05,500 --> 01:20:01,729 organized with people in China from 1684 01:20:06,729 --> 01:20:05,510 Britain in 1400 the entire obviously the 1685 01:20:08,799 --> 01:20:06,739 entire history our history would be 1686 01:20:10,089 --> 01:20:08,809 vastly different so suddenly this has 1687 01:20:12,339 --> 01:20:10,099 come into play suddenly this is now 1688 01:20:13,719 --> 01:20:12,349 possible and a lot of people haven't 1689 01:20:15,399 --> 01:20:13,729 really thought about what that means 1690 01:20:16,509 --> 01:20:15,409 there are some people who think about it 1691 01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:16,519 very much and those are the people at 1692 01:20:20,469 --> 01:20:19,010 DARPA I ARPA some of these companies 1693 01:20:23,469 --> 01:20:20,479 that are that are sort of given the task 1694 01:20:24,729 --> 01:20:23,479 of managing the government's response to 1695 01:20:28,719 --> 01:20:24,739 the things that they think of it come 1696 01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:28,729 down the pike let's talk about what you 1697 01:20:34,270 --> 01:20:32,090 are doing now with the pursuance project 1698 01:20:36,890 --> 01:20:34,280 tell us about that because this 1699 01:20:39,500 --> 01:20:36,900 addresses all of these chain 1700 01:20:40,610 --> 01:20:39,510 is that impossible I mean these are 1701 01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:40,620 basically the issues that I'm obsessed 1702 01:20:45,709 --> 01:20:44,010 with the issues of in the broad issue of 1703 01:20:47,090 --> 01:20:45,719 yes now we can now collaborate now 1704 01:20:49,850 --> 01:20:47,100 things are fundamentally different the 1705 01:20:53,450 --> 01:20:49,860 nation-state the geographical you know 1706 01:20:54,890 --> 01:20:53,460 associationism that is informed all of 1707 01:20:56,510 --> 01:20:54,900 our structures all of our political 1708 01:20:58,399 --> 01:20:56,520 institutions they all date back from 1709 01:21:00,590 --> 01:20:58,409 when it made sense to work with your 1710 01:21:03,020 --> 01:21:00,600 neighbors and there was no other option 1711 01:21:04,550 --> 01:21:03,030 and so these these institutions they've 1712 01:21:06,169 --> 01:21:04,560 come into that they've continued on to 1713 01:21:08,209 --> 01:21:06,179 this age and they've changed a bit but 1714 01:21:10,310 --> 01:21:08,219 most of them are not capable of changing 1715 01:21:12,620 --> 01:21:10,320 fundamentally and adapting to these new 1716 01:21:14,240 --> 01:21:12,630 realities and so you know some of them 1717 01:21:17,600 --> 01:21:14,250 will do better than others in the 1718 01:21:20,120 --> 01:21:17,610 meantime those of us who are keen on 1719 01:21:23,240 --> 01:21:20,130 history and are thus worried about what 1720 01:21:24,350 --> 01:21:23,250 might be happening soon you know even 1721 01:21:26,540 --> 01:21:24,360 even though things have been going on in 1722 01:21:29,780 --> 01:21:26,550 the last 10 years or so 1723 01:21:31,880 --> 01:21:29,790 I think pales compared to what may very 1724 01:21:35,060 --> 01:21:31,890 well happen the next 20 years and so 1725 01:21:37,100 --> 01:21:35,070 those of us who want who look at it that 1726 01:21:38,810 --> 01:21:37,110 way who think that these are times in 1727 01:21:41,840 --> 01:21:38,820 which profound change can occur and 1728 01:21:43,399 --> 01:21:41,850 either will be will be done by others 1729 01:21:47,140 --> 01:21:43,409 who we may disagree with or will be done 1730 01:21:49,490 --> 01:21:47,150 by us we have the responsibility to 1731 01:21:51,110 --> 01:21:49,500 approach this question this this key 1732 01:21:53,540 --> 01:21:51,120 problem in 21st century which is how you 1733 01:21:56,419 --> 01:21:53,550 organize large numbers of people that 1734 01:21:58,729 --> 01:21:56,429 you agree with in some basic way and get 1735 01:22:00,919 --> 01:21:58,739 them to act in a way that's not just fun 1736 01:22:02,060 --> 01:22:00,929 and you know histrionic it doesn't 1737 01:22:03,860 --> 01:22:02,070 involve just going in the streets and 1738 01:22:07,610 --> 01:22:03,870 shouting and holding sirens but that 1739 01:22:09,680 --> 01:22:07,620 really can grow perpetually while 1740 01:22:11,899 --> 01:22:09,690 refining itself never becoming 1741 01:22:15,080 --> 01:22:11,909 overburdened you know while still being 1742 01:22:17,180 --> 01:22:15,090 able to grow quickly and adapt that's 1743 01:22:19,280 --> 01:22:17,190 what the pursuance system that we're 1744 01:22:20,840 --> 01:22:19,290 building is intended to do for people 1745 01:22:22,990 --> 01:22:20,850 who believe in the open society who were 1746 01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:23,000 opposed to authoritarian governments 1747 01:22:31,250 --> 01:22:25,770 this is this is sorry I was gonna say 1748 01:22:33,140 --> 01:22:31,260 give me an example of a project yes so 1749 01:22:34,220 --> 01:22:33,150 this is something that is that is geared 1750 01:22:35,990 --> 01:22:34,230 towards a couple different 1751 01:22:37,820 --> 01:22:36,000 constituencies one of which is the 1752 01:22:39,380 --> 01:22:37,830 people like those and anonymous or 1753 01:22:41,380 --> 01:22:39,390 telecomix or these other groups that 1754 01:22:44,620 --> 01:22:41,390 were sort of on the cutting edge of of 1755 01:22:47,209 --> 01:22:44,630 working together online against 1756 01:22:48,709 --> 01:22:47,219 criminalized institutions and thinking 1757 01:22:50,420 --> 01:22:48,719 up new effective ways of doing that this 1758 01:22:53,870 --> 01:22:50,430 is a way of letting them 1759 01:22:56,720 --> 01:22:53,880 organize in a more effective way than 1760 01:22:58,070 --> 01:22:56,730 the amorphous kind of haphazard ways 1761 01:22:59,750 --> 01:22:58,080 that we did with anonymous and some of 1762 01:23:01,880 --> 01:22:59,760 these other things back then it's also a 1763 01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:01,890 way for existing institutions you know 1764 01:23:05,720 --> 01:23:03,090 groups that are out fighting for civil 1765 01:23:08,030 --> 01:23:05,730 liberties opposing transparency on 1766 01:23:09,800 --> 01:23:08,040 government to better make use of the 1767 01:23:13,250 --> 01:23:09,810 people who support their causes to not 1768 01:23:15,380 --> 01:23:13,260 just have them sign petitions and make 1769 01:23:18,950 --> 01:23:15,390 donations but to get them a raid into a 1770 01:23:22,610 --> 01:23:18,960 sort of self organized network that can 1771 01:23:25,220 --> 01:23:22,620 grow again and sort of become a real a 1772 01:23:26,540 --> 01:23:25,230 real asset to those groups and to have 1773 01:23:28,430 --> 01:23:26,550 them work together and as well as 1774 01:23:30,230 --> 01:23:28,440 journalists we want journalists to be 1775 01:23:31,880 --> 01:23:30,240 able to use this for crowdsourcing which 1776 01:23:34,430 --> 01:23:31,890 is a which is a very powerful tool that 1777 01:23:36,110 --> 01:23:34,440 we use to good effect in 2011 you know 1778 01:23:39,050 --> 01:23:36,120 we did it such a good job that the FBI 1779 01:23:41,510 --> 01:23:39,060 came down on us so these these are some 1780 01:23:43,010 --> 01:23:41,520 of the basic uses but one civic example 1781 01:23:44,510 --> 01:23:43,020 that I'll be involved in to give an 1782 01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:44,520 example of what this kind of this thing 1783 01:23:49,820 --> 01:23:46,890 can do when we're putting together a 1784 01:23:52,550 --> 01:23:49,830 prison reform project we're going to be 1785 01:23:54,350 --> 01:23:52,560 creating a information package for 1786 01:23:55,730 --> 01:23:54,360 journalists in regional markets for the 1787 01:23:57,890 --> 01:23:55,740 local newspapers that kind of thing 1788 01:24:01,130 --> 01:23:57,900 local television stations and teaching 1789 01:24:04,190 --> 01:24:01,140 them how to cover prisons effectively by 1790 01:24:06,530 --> 01:24:04,200 using FOI requests for the grievance 1791 01:24:07,820 --> 01:24:06,540 forms that inmates file in prisons when 1792 01:24:09,710 --> 01:24:07,830 they want to go to court you know prove 1793 01:24:11,180 --> 01:24:09,720 it inmates aren't allowed to just write 1794 01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:11,190 to a judge and say hey I'm being kept in 1795 01:24:14,210 --> 01:24:12,690 a Cell and beaten every day and they 1796 01:24:16,850 --> 01:24:14,220 haven't told me why they have to go 1797 01:24:18,620 --> 01:24:16,860 through this process that Congress laid 1798 01:24:20,420 --> 01:24:18,630 on us back in 1996 1799 01:24:22,310 --> 01:24:20,430 whereby the prison itself gets to 1800 01:24:23,930 --> 01:24:22,320 oversee the process so they have to say 1801 01:24:26,150 --> 01:24:23,940 okay you've turned this in on time and 1802 01:24:27,230 --> 01:24:26,160 we're definitely gonna you know put that 1803 01:24:29,450 --> 01:24:27,240 in the record and we're gonna submit it 1804 01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:29,460 to the next branch of the VOP so on and 1805 01:24:35,420 --> 01:24:31,050 so forth all the state prisons have this 1806 01:24:37,670 --> 01:24:35,430 the federal prison has it so those as I 1807 01:24:39,230 --> 01:24:37,680 documented in my column tend not to go 1808 01:24:40,160 --> 01:24:39,240 very far you could have expected that if 1809 01:24:43,360 --> 01:24:40,170 you would thought you know if you 1810 01:24:45,590 --> 01:24:43,370 thought about you know how viable is a 1811 01:24:48,290 --> 01:24:45,600 self defense mechanism that relies on 1812 01:24:52,010 --> 01:24:48,300 your enemy to function and so we're 1813 01:24:53,900 --> 01:24:52,020 going to be working with journalists to 1814 01:24:56,300 --> 01:24:53,910 - we're gonna show them that not only 1815 01:24:58,550 --> 01:24:56,310 can they can they effectively and 1816 01:25:00,410 --> 01:24:58,560 crucially cover these prisons cover 1817 01:25:01,850 --> 01:25:00,420 what's going on in him but also do it in 1818 01:25:02,690 --> 01:25:01,860 a way that helps them and that's very 1819 01:25:04,010 --> 01:25:02,700 important when you're dealing with a lot 1820 01:25:04,250 --> 01:25:04,020 of journalists and most of their career 1821 01:25:06,560 --> 01:25:04,260 risk 1822 01:25:08,030 --> 01:25:06,570 so we're always keen to point out that 1823 01:25:09,050 --> 01:25:08,040 this will make your job easier so 1824 01:25:10,730 --> 01:25:09,060 there's a number of projects like that 1825 01:25:12,380 --> 01:25:10,740 that are intended to like take people 1826 01:25:14,810 --> 01:25:12,390 who have these skills and want to help 1827 01:25:16,670 --> 01:25:14,820 do something and get them arrayed into 1828 01:25:18,710 --> 01:25:16,680 something where they can they can decide 1829 01:25:20,870 --> 01:25:18,720 the terms of their involvement and then 1830 01:25:22,400 --> 01:25:20,880 grow and interact with something else 1831 01:25:26,570 --> 01:25:22,410 that's broken so if you think it 1832 01:25:28,790 --> 01:25:26,580 pursuance if you think of the state or 1833 01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:28,800 any institution as a big old building 1834 01:25:33,050 --> 01:25:31,130 that's kind of crumbling in some places 1835 01:25:35,690 --> 01:25:33,060 maybe it has cracks in the foundation 1836 01:25:37,310 --> 01:25:35,700 maybe it is a paint job you don't all 1837 01:25:39,050 --> 01:25:37,320 have to agree on what needs to be done 1838 01:25:40,550 --> 01:25:39,060 with the building ultimately in order to 1839 01:25:43,250 --> 01:25:40,560 start building scaffolding around it and 1840 01:25:45,950 --> 01:25:43,260 get together on the parts that with the 1841 01:25:47,300 --> 01:25:45,960 ones that you all agree on the other 1842 01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:47,310 thing about scaffolding is you can fix 1843 01:25:51,290 --> 01:25:50,010 nuts to it so when the building starts 1844 01:25:53,630 --> 01:25:51,300 crumbling down in the future 1845 01:25:56,300 --> 01:25:53,640 bricks won't fall on people below that's 1846 01:26:00,550 --> 01:25:56,310 what pursuance is for States and it 1847 01:26:03,890 --> 01:26:00,560 could could it also I envision 1848 01:26:06,410 --> 01:26:03,900 environmental issues and and and 1849 01:26:10,070 --> 01:26:06,420 tackling that and and taking on those 1850 01:26:12,950 --> 01:26:10,080 big corporations that are messing with 1851 01:26:16,070 --> 01:26:12,960 the environment or maybe fracking or 1852 01:26:18,620 --> 01:26:16,080 maybe plant some trees and or you know 1853 01:26:20,660 --> 01:26:18,630 what I mean is there it is absolutely it 1854 01:26:23,150 --> 01:26:20,670 doesn't matter right it doesn't matter 1855 01:26:24,950 --> 01:26:23,160 it's just whatever you want to pursue it 1856 01:26:26,930 --> 01:26:24,960 is it is essentially an organizing 1857 01:26:29,360 --> 01:26:26,940 platform it's a platform for masses of 1858 01:26:32,150 --> 01:26:29,370 it collaboration it's it's it's it's 1859 01:26:34,550 --> 01:26:32,160 that we call a process democracy so all 1860 01:26:36,020 --> 01:26:34,560 the participants and participants you 1861 01:26:37,370 --> 01:26:36,030 know come in by invitation from existing 1862 01:26:38,330 --> 01:26:37,380 participants that's how it grows over 1863 01:26:41,240 --> 01:26:38,340 time and of course it would grow 1864 01:26:42,470 --> 01:26:41,250 exponentially like those things do they 1865 01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:42,480 decide what they're going to work on 1866 01:26:45,320 --> 01:26:44,130 they anyone comes in create this 1867 01:26:48,170 --> 01:26:45,330 pursuance which is this living 1868 01:26:50,000 --> 01:26:48,180 organizational chart sort of thing and 1869 01:26:51,410 --> 01:26:50,010 this ecosystem arises where all these 1870 01:26:53,900 --> 01:26:51,420 different projects are taking shape and 1871 01:26:55,340 --> 01:26:53,910 they you can see what they are to the 1872 01:26:56,690 --> 01:26:55,350 extent that they're visible you know 1873 01:26:59,630 --> 01:26:56,700 obviously some projects or more need 1874 01:27:01,790 --> 01:26:59,640 more security than others but it'll be 1875 01:27:03,200 --> 01:27:01,800 much easier in this ecosystem to find 1876 01:27:04,700 --> 01:27:03,210 the people that you want to work with 1877 01:27:07,070 --> 01:27:04,710 and find the people with the skills that 1878 01:27:08,960 --> 01:27:07,080 you need and offer them a position in 1879 01:27:10,850 --> 01:27:08,970 this little group you've started than it 1880 01:27:13,100 --> 01:27:10,860 is anywhere else it'll be more secure as 1881 01:27:14,600 --> 01:27:13,110 well since it's in encrypted you know 1882 01:27:15,980 --> 01:27:14,610 nothing is 1% secure but we have 1883 01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:15,990 additional layers that are just not 1884 01:27:20,060 --> 01:27:18,330 available to people who are using slow 1885 01:27:22,730 --> 01:27:20,070 right now for these things or Facebook 1886 01:27:24,940 --> 01:27:22,740 no right Rob where can everybody go 1887 01:27:30,640 --> 01:27:24,950 check out the project right now 1888 01:27:32,900 --> 01:27:30,650 pursuance projects or bits pu r su ance 1889 01:27:35,240 --> 01:27:32,910 project.org that's where you can find 1890 01:27:36,590 --> 01:27:35,250 some diagrams kind of showing what we 1891 01:27:38,090 --> 01:27:36,600 mean by when we say a pursuance it's 1892 01:27:41,180 --> 01:27:38,100 obviously something that's it's hard to 1893 01:27:42,410 --> 01:27:41,190 explain just verbally but you can see 1894 01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:42,420 what we're doing you can see what kind 1895 01:27:46,340 --> 01:27:44,250 of uses it can be put to you can see 1896 01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:46,350 examples of what certain organizations 1897 01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:47,610 like frontline wellness which is a 1898 01:27:51,830 --> 01:27:50,010 nonprofit that goes and provides medical 1899 01:27:53,780 --> 01:27:51,840 training in conflict resolution in 1900 01:27:55,100 --> 01:27:53,790 conflict zones around the world you can 1901 01:27:56,630 --> 01:27:55,110 see examples and kind of get a better 1902 01:27:58,100 --> 01:27:56,640 idea of what the possibilities are here 1903 01:28:00,800 --> 01:27:58,110 but basically anything you can envision 1904 01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:00,810 as someone who supports the free society 1905 01:28:03,680 --> 01:28:02,010 if you just agree to these basic 1906 01:28:05,600 --> 01:28:03,690 principles anything you envision 1907 01:28:06,710 --> 01:28:05,610 anything you want to work on the odds 1908 01:28:08,510 --> 01:28:06,720 are that there's gonna be someone 1909 01:28:11,960 --> 01:28:08,520 working on slang similar so you can join 1910 01:28:13,730 --> 01:28:11,970 their pursuance or start your own it's 1911 01:28:17,060 --> 01:28:13,740 it's something that's very very 1912 01:28:18,380 --> 01:28:17,070 Universal very scalable you know 1913 01:28:20,090 --> 01:28:18,390 ultimately this is not a Content neutral 1914 01:28:24,320 --> 01:28:20,100 system we're not trying to empower cops 1915 01:28:27,110 --> 01:28:24,330 or Nazis but we are you know any anyone 1916 01:28:28,850 --> 01:28:27,120 who agrees on these basic precepts that 1917 01:28:31,490 --> 01:28:28,860 we list is welcome 1918 01:28:32,960 --> 01:28:31,500 now you've been envisioning this this 1919 01:28:35,150 --> 01:28:32,970 isn't something that just happened 1920 01:28:38,060 --> 01:28:35,160 overnight either you've been looking at 1921 01:28:41,600 --> 01:28:38,070 the structure and in applying this for 1922 01:28:44,420 --> 01:28:41,610 how long the first the first iteration 1923 01:28:46,370 --> 01:28:44,430 of pursuance was what I set up project 1924 01:28:48,950 --> 01:28:46,380 p.m. to do in 2009 we had some main 1925 01:28:50,630 --> 01:28:48,960 recruiting people using my columns I had 1926 01:28:52,280 --> 01:28:50,640 enough composed and skeptical inquirer 1927 01:28:53,860 --> 01:28:52,290 in different places saying look I'm 1928 01:28:56,450 --> 01:28:53,870 gonna build this thing and if you're in 1929 01:28:57,650 --> 01:28:56,460 let me know my editors were horrified by 1930 01:28:59,960 --> 01:28:57,660 this because you know it seems very 1931 01:29:02,360 --> 01:28:59,970 silly to them this guy's calling for 1932 01:29:04,670 --> 01:29:02,370 this big Civic Platform cyberpunk thing 1933 01:29:05,840 --> 01:29:04,680 that whatever but I did it anyway and so 1934 01:29:08,600 --> 01:29:05,850 we got a number of people who were all 1935 01:29:09,740 --> 01:29:08,610 very sort of early adapter types oddly 1936 01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:09,750 enough my second-in-command at that 1937 01:29:15,110 --> 01:29:11,970 point was my former IRS lawyer so it was 1938 01:29:17,000 --> 01:29:15,120 a mainstream group then I got involved 1939 01:29:18,530 --> 01:29:17,010 with anonymous and because the Tunisian 1940 01:29:20,360 --> 01:29:18,540 thing was happening and then things the 1941 01:29:21,950 --> 01:29:20,370 one thing that led to another and that 1942 01:29:23,810 --> 01:29:21,960 all fell by the wayside but in the 1943 01:29:25,280 --> 01:29:23,820 meantime obviously I I had the 1944 01:29:28,520 --> 01:29:25,290 opportunity to learn quite a bit about 1945 01:29:30,410 --> 01:29:28,530 both the broad lessons of online 1946 01:29:32,120 --> 01:29:30,420 organization and human organization in 1947 01:29:34,640 --> 01:29:32,130 general and the little mundane 1948 01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:34,650 things that you know you really kind of 1949 01:29:39,439 --> 01:29:36,810 pick up after a while and apply all 1950 01:29:41,209 --> 01:29:39,449 these things into this system so the 1951 01:29:43,910 --> 01:29:41,219 system we have now the way this works 1952 01:29:45,050 --> 01:29:43,920 now is far more refined than what we 1953 01:29:49,129 --> 01:29:45,060 were originally putting together but 1954 01:29:51,290 --> 01:29:49,139 even that was a it was useful enough to 1955 01:29:52,669 --> 01:29:51,300 those who saw it that we had no problem 1956 01:29:54,350 --> 01:29:52,679 recruiting for it and this this is 1957 01:29:56,090 --> 01:29:54,360 obviously vastly better which is why we 1958 01:29:59,120 --> 01:29:56,100 have a board of directors with some 1959 01:30:01,399 --> 01:29:59,130 pretty high caliber figures like 1960 01:30:02,899 --> 01:30:01,409 Birgitta jónsdóttir member of parliament 1961 01:30:05,959 --> 01:30:02,909 from iceland who was only involved with 1962 01:30:07,550 --> 01:30:05,969 WikiLeaks John Kiriakou who blew the 1963 01:30:09,620 --> 01:30:07,560 whistle on CIA torture and also went to 1964 01:30:11,840 --> 01:30:09,630 prison a number of college professors 1965 01:30:14,330 --> 01:30:11,850 journalists that sort of thing 1966 01:30:15,740 --> 01:30:14,340 we have we have we don't just have an 1967 01:30:17,450 --> 01:30:15,750 idea that I'm going to sit here and say 1968 01:30:19,850 --> 01:30:17,460 oh if everyone did this you know it'd be 1969 01:30:21,890 --> 01:30:19,860 great we have the means to get people in 1970 01:30:22,879 --> 01:30:21,900 and use it and that's that's the 1971 01:30:24,260 --> 01:30:22,889 important part that I always want to 1972 01:30:25,459 --> 01:30:24,270 make clear because you know there are 1973 01:30:26,959 --> 01:30:25,469 great ideas out there there's things 1974 01:30:28,970 --> 01:30:26,969 like liquid democracy there's all kinds 1975 01:30:31,910 --> 01:30:28,980 of software platforms for organizing the 1976 01:30:35,360 --> 01:30:31,920 problem is because of just the goofiness 1977 01:30:37,580 --> 01:30:35,370 of how we prioritize what we're going to 1978 01:30:41,090 --> 01:30:37,590 do they don't get a lot of media pick up 1979 01:30:43,189 --> 01:30:41,100 so we do have this opportunity to ensure 1980 01:30:44,629 --> 01:30:43,199 that you know beyond the 1,900 people in 1981 01:30:47,149 --> 01:30:44,639 organizations that have signed up thus 1982 01:30:49,370 --> 01:30:47,159 far that over the coming couple years we 1983 01:30:50,680 --> 01:30:49,380 bring in 30 40 thousand high calibre 1984 01:30:52,970 --> 01:30:50,690 people with different skills different 1985 01:30:54,890 --> 01:30:52,980 backgrounds different means of acquiring 1986 01:30:58,000 --> 01:30:54,900 information and

1992 01:31:12,560 --> 01:31:10,560 feel like it's restricted your 1993 01:31:16,310 --> 01:31:12,570 opportunities out there for journalism 1994 01:31:19,490 --> 01:31:16,320 now have those calls

01:31:22,110 for me 1998 01:31:30,260 --> 01:31:25,260 they reached me last year when I was 1999 01:31:31,820 --> 01:31:30,270 still on halfway house basically I 2000 01:31:34,129 --> 01:31:31,830 figure out the term for it wasn't on 2001 01:31:35,689 --> 01:31:34,139 probation you get had Miria rested 2002 01:31:37,640 --> 01:31:35,699 because I gave an interview to Vice and 2003 01:31:39,080 --> 01:31:37,650 another one to PBS and they claimed that 2004 01:31:41,540 --> 01:31:39,090 I wasn't allowed to give interviews I 2005 01:31:42,830 --> 01:31:41,550 happen to know for a fact since I given 2006 01:31:44,570 --> 01:31:42,840 them from prison for instance over the 2007 01:31:46,000 --> 01:31:44,580 phone's a number of times and was 2008 01:31:48,130 --> 01:31:46,010 familiar with the actual guy 2009 01:31:49,510 --> 01:31:48,140 book on that for inmates but I was 2010 01:31:50,800 --> 01:31:49,520 allowed to and I told them no I'm not 2011 01:31:53,110 --> 01:31:50,810 going to get your permission to give 2012 01:31:54,910 --> 01:31:53,120 interviews and they reread me publisher 2013 01:31:57,400 --> 01:31:54,920 down here you're paid $11,000 to a law 2014 01:31:59,410 --> 01:31:57,410 firm to threatened him let's take it to 2015 01:32:01,420 --> 01:31:59,420 court and they let me out immediately 2016 01:32:03,190 --> 01:32:01,430 then they subpoenaed the intercept which 2017 01:32:05,860 --> 01:32:03,200 I used to write for they subpoenaed my 2018 01:32:07,330 --> 01:32:05,870 publishers and my agents for the book 2019 01:32:10,570 --> 01:32:07,340 that I've got that of course has a lot 2020 01:32:12,490 --> 01:32:10,580 of embarrassing DOJ material beyond 2021 01:32:13,960 --> 01:32:12,500 what's already available and they 2022 01:32:15,400 --> 01:32:13,970 subpoena subpoenaed them for all my 2023 01:32:17,830 --> 01:32:15,410 communications between them the editors 2024 01:32:19,720 --> 01:32:17,840 and also demanded that they not pay me 2025 01:32:21,430 --> 01:32:19,730 in my book advance until further notice 2026 01:32:23,650 --> 01:32:21,440 and that further notice turned out to be 2027 01:32:27,970 --> 01:32:23,660 quite further indeed so just yesterday 2028 01:32:29,290 --> 01:32:27,980 after a year I got my net my my income 2029 01:32:31,300 --> 01:32:29,300 the income I've been waiting for for a 2030 01:32:33,010 --> 01:32:31,310 year so they've definitely done what 2031 01:32:35,440 --> 01:32:33,020 they can to stymie this operation 2032 01:32:37,330 --> 01:32:35,450 quickly pursuance they they know that I 2033 01:32:40,080 --> 01:32:37,340 was planning and had already started 2034 01:32:42,310 --> 01:32:40,090 sort of self funding it from the get-go 2035 01:32:43,690 --> 01:32:42,320 and so they could have prevented me from 2036 01:32:46,480 --> 01:32:43,700 being able to do that luckily we have 2037 01:32:48,010 --> 01:32:46,490 volunteers that care enough about this 2038 01:32:50,110 --> 01:32:48,020 that they have done this stuff with no 2039 01:32:51,700 --> 01:32:50,120 money in some cases even put in their 2040 01:32:55,900 --> 01:32:51,710 own to go to conferences and I kind of 2041 01:32:57,340 --> 01:32:55,910 think so on the other hand obviously if 2042 01:32:58,900 --> 01:32:57,350 you want to Google my name 2043 01:33:00,850 --> 01:32:58,910 they're gonna see a great deal of 2044 01:33:03,670 --> 01:33:00,860 material about the things that I that I 2045 01:33:07,570 --> 01:33:03,680 call it correctly they're gonna see you 2046 01:33:09,100 --> 01:33:07,580 know that I have certain unusual 2047 01:33:11,680 --> 01:33:09,110 qualities for a journalist one of which 2048 01:33:13,210 --> 01:33:11,690 is that I that I don't just want to be a 2049 01:33:14,230 --> 01:33:13,220 journalist I don't want I don't want to 2050 01:33:17,830 --> 01:33:14,240 just have readers I want to have 2051 01:33:19,870 --> 01:33:17,840 constituents and that obviously makes it 2052 01:33:21,400 --> 01:33:19,880 easier it makes me more credible having 2053 01:33:22,660 --> 01:33:21,410 the the awards and all that that I 2054 01:33:25,360 --> 01:33:22,670 wouldn't have gotten if I wasn't I 2055 01:33:28,540 --> 01:33:25,370 hadn't gone to prison that helps me with 2056 01:33:30,280 --> 01:33:28,550 mainstream people and and it's kept my 2057 01:33:32,470 --> 01:33:30,290 credibility up among those you know the 2058 01:33:33,940 --> 01:33:32,480 less mainstream and that's that's been 2059 01:33:36,570 --> 01:33:33,950 very important to doing this to putting 2060 01:33:38,980 --> 01:33:36,580 this together a very big part of this is 2061 01:33:41,170 --> 01:33:38,990 getting people's attention in the first 2062 01:33:44,650 --> 01:33:41,180 place another big part of it it's being 2063 01:33:47,050 --> 01:33:44,660 able to get prominent figures to come 2064 01:33:48,580 --> 01:33:47,060 out and endorse it and to work on it and 2065 01:33:49,600 --> 01:33:48,590 serve on a board of directors and those 2066 01:33:52,000 --> 01:33:49,610 are things that I just would not have 2067 01:33:53,620 --> 01:33:52,010 been able to do to that extent had the 2068 01:33:56,950 --> 01:33:53,630 DOJ not come after me in the way they 2069 01:33:59,770 --> 01:33:56,960 did well you ready to take some phone 2070 01:34:03,700 --> 01:33:59,780 calls after this

the future could 2206 01:41:27,999 --> 01:41:25,099 be did you did you have any type of you 2207 01:41:35,259 --> 01:41:28,009 know did that did you see the light did 2208 01:41:36,609 --> 01:41:35,269 things take off assalamualaikum I'll 2209 01:41:38,139 --> 01:41:36,619 tell you this I was before I went to 2210 01:41:40,029 --> 01:41:38,149 prison I was very much a horrible little 2211 01:41:42,519 --> 01:41:40,039 anarchist robot and anytime I read a 2212 01:41:43,809 --> 01:41:42,529 book I was thinking to myself is this 2213 01:41:47,499 --> 01:41:43,819 something I can use in an argument 2214 01:41:49,479 --> 01:41:47,509 someday to win and that was a sort of a 2215 01:41:51,609 --> 01:41:49,489 fault you know this was deep in my 2216 01:41:53,739 --> 01:41:51,619 psyche it wasn't until I got to prison 2217 01:41:55,359 --> 01:41:53,749 and was at first facing the prospect of 2218 01:41:57,909 --> 01:41:55,369 20 or 30 years when I was able to sort 2219 01:41:59,999 --> 01:41:57,919 of let myself go and enjoy things like 2220 01:42:03,909 --> 01:42:00,009 poetry 2221 01:42:06,279 --> 01:42:03,919 really yeah and in geometry and and you 2222 01:42:08,099 --> 01:42:06,289 know reading you know just picking up 2223 01:42:10,809 --> 01:42:08,109 knowledge that is not necessarily useful 2224 01:42:12,309 --> 01:42:10,819 that was something that I finally was 2225 01:42:15,249 --> 01:42:12,319 able to do and that's that's very much 2226 01:42:18,029 --> 01:42:15,259 enriched my life and and one other one 2227 01:42:21,099 --> 01:42:18,039 other question did your diet change oh 2228 01:42:23,229 --> 01:42:21,109 by necessity happening on where you are 2229 01:42:25,209 --> 01:42:23,239 yeah the you know but I'll tell ya I 2230 01:42:26,919 --> 01:42:25,219 developed a taste for green green beans 2231 01:42:28,719 --> 01:42:26,929 and rice because that's what they allow 2232 01:42:30,069 --> 01:42:28,729 you to have all you want up they have a 2233 01:42:32,679 --> 01:42:30,079 little tray there so in addition to your 2234 01:42:33,849 --> 01:42:32,689 lot its allotted food right you can have 2235 01:42:36,609 --> 01:42:33,859 all the Sri means and rice and I think 2236 01:42:41,979 --> 01:42:36,619 it's a great a great dinner by its own 2237 01:42:42,709 --> 01:42:41,989 so oh man I don't want to make light of 2238 01:42:46,279 --> 01:42:42,719 this 2239 01:42:47,839 --> 01:42:46,289 but is that part of your diet now yeah 2240 01:42:49,520 --> 01:42:47,849 it is actually yes one of the things I 2241 01:42:52,700 --> 01:42:49,530 picked up another one is freeze-dried 2242 01:42:54,469 --> 01:42:52,710 coffee they've got some very strong very 2243 01:42:56,569 --> 01:42:54,479 robust freeze-dried coffee that they'd 2244 01:42:58,040 --> 01:42:56,579 only sell the prisoners you can't get it 2245 01:43:00,830 --> 01:42:58,050 really out here without going to 2246 01:43:03,080 --> 01:43:00,840 distributor and somewhat someone sent me 2247 01:43:05,629 --> 01:43:03,090 eight or nine bags of that and long ago 2248 01:43:08,899 --> 01:43:05,639 so I've still got that in my diet that 2249 01:43:09,979 --> 01:43:08,909 is that is very interesting let's go 2250 01:43:13,549 --> 01:43:09,989 back to the phones hi you're live on 2251 01:43:15,709 --> 01:43:13,559 fade to black who's calling from Lake of 2252 01:43:19,939 --> 01:43:15,719 the Ozarks hey Doug from Lake of the 2253 01:43:24,799 --> 01:43:19,949 Ozarks say hi to bear brown hey bear 2254 01:43:27,020 --> 01:43:24,809 greetings greetings yes I got so many 2255 01:43:29,060 --> 01:43:27,030 questions but I guess I'll ask probably 2256 01:43:32,299 --> 01:43:29,070 the one that's I consider to be the most 2257 01:43:34,370 --> 01:43:32,309 important and let's say someone is maybe 2258 01:43:36,049 --> 01:43:34,380 setting off some information or they 2259 01:43:38,750 --> 01:43:36,059 know some things and what now what what 2260 01:43:41,149 --> 01:43:38,760 kind of advice or recommendations would 2261 01:43:44,450 --> 01:43:41,159 you give to someone who's maybe wanting 2262 01:43:46,370 --> 01:43:44,460 to expose something or there are 2263 01:43:48,830 --> 01:43:46,380 organizations one of which is the 2264 01:43:51,229 --> 01:43:48,840 freedom of the press foundation that is 2265 01:43:54,229 --> 01:43:51,239 staffed and overseen by some very high 2266 01:43:56,120 --> 01:43:54,239 caliber people who have they oversee I 2267 01:43:57,589 --> 01:43:56,130 believe it's then to oversee this secure 2268 01:44:00,020 --> 01:43:57,599 drop the drop box it was something that 2269 01:44:01,219 --> 01:44:00,030 uh I believe Aaron Schwartz was involved 2270 01:44:03,350 --> 01:44:01,229 in creating under Schwartz of course was 2271 01:44:04,640 --> 01:44:03,360 one of the one of the really visionaries 2272 01:44:07,069 --> 01:44:04,650 of the internet and he ultimately 2273 01:44:09,350 --> 01:44:07,079 committed suicide facing 20 years in 2274 01:44:12,439 --> 01:44:09,360 prison by the DOJ for having made 2275 01:44:14,660 --> 01:44:12,449 available documents from MIT it was 2276 01:44:15,799 --> 01:44:14,670 another thing we it would it would take 2277 01:44:17,330 --> 01:44:15,809 too long to really go into this but 2278 01:44:18,589 --> 01:44:17,340 there are there are organizations like 2279 01:44:22,609 --> 01:44:18,599 the freedom of the press foundation you 2280 01:44:24,410 --> 01:44:22,619 can find online and and and outlets of 2281 01:44:24,979 --> 01:44:24,420 that nature that have experience in 2282 01:44:27,080 --> 01:44:24,989 whistleblowing 2283 01:44:28,700 --> 01:44:27,090 and you should read their guides on 2284 01:44:30,649 --> 01:44:28,710 there before you do anything before you 2285 01:44:34,009 --> 01:44:30,659 send in single a email before you log on 2286 01:44:37,129 --> 01:44:34,019 to a news site that you might plan on 2287 01:44:38,270 --> 01:44:37,139 leaking to we have some examples of what 2288 01:44:39,859 --> 01:44:38,280 not to do 2289 01:44:41,989 --> 01:44:39,869 in some of these cases I don't want to 2290 01:44:45,830 --> 01:44:41,999 go in specifics here but you can you can 2291 01:44:47,450 --> 01:44:45,840 find those you will never regret being 2292 01:44:49,310 --> 01:44:47,460 very cautious and you will never regret 2293 01:44:52,189 --> 01:44:49,320 reading a great deal of material out 2294 01:44:54,020 --> 01:44:52,199 there weighing it and looking into the 2295 01:44:56,510 --> 01:44:54,030 people writing it the fingerprint of the 2296 01:45:00,740 --> 01:44:56,520 press foundation is probably the best 2297 01:45:02,630 --> 01:45:00,750 to start yeah cool anyway I didn't have 2298 01:45:07,820 --> 01:45:02,640 to escape to Russia or anything like 2299 01:45:09,560 --> 01:45:07,830 that so yeah I'd heard it thing I heard 2300 01:45:11,720 --> 01:45:09,570 a thing about

cautious 2319 01:46:06,560 --> 01:46:00,860 about it what would you do today if 2320 01:46:10,330 --> 01:46:06,570 something was given to you that you know 2321 01:46:14,360 --> 01:46:10,340 which you maybe not only in jeopardy but 2322 01:46:16,070 --> 01:46:14,370 what would you do with that today very 2323 01:46:18,650 --> 01:46:16,080 similar to the advice I would give him 2324 01:46:20,900 --> 01:46:18,660 or any any other anyone sort of outside 2325 01:46:22,520 --> 01:46:20,910 of the realm of media just the the the 2326 01:46:25,880 --> 01:46:22,530 person out there who might come across 2327 01:46:27,920 --> 01:46:25,890 something I would first you know you set 2328 01:46:30,590 --> 01:46:27,930 aside what I think I know about security 2329 01:46:32,270 --> 01:46:30,600 and immediately read some of these 2330 01:46:33,650 --> 01:46:32,280 guides and had written by groups like 2331 01:46:35,270 --> 01:46:33,660 like the for no depressed foundation 2332 01:46:37,160 --> 01:46:35,280 before I made a single move before I 2333 01:46:38,870 --> 01:46:37,170 made a phone call even on you know wire 2334 01:46:41,620 --> 01:46:38,880 signal or one of these inner cryptid 2335 01:46:43,940 --> 01:46:41,630 deals I would first make sure that I 2336 01:46:46,490 --> 01:46:43,950 have the best chance of having thought 2337 01:46:49,100 --> 01:46:46,500 about all of those things that the FBI 2338 01:46:50,720 --> 01:46:49,110 and NSA have had decades to think about 2339 01:46:53,090 --> 01:46:50,730 in terms of how to catch whistleblowers 2340 01:46:54,800 --> 01:46:53,100 there is software one of the things that 2341 01:46:56,870 --> 01:46:54,810 we came across one one that one of the 2342 01:46:59,300 --> 01:46:56,880 times what I did have an informants that 2343 01:47:00,830 --> 01:46:59,310 worked out real well when I was provided 2344 01:47:02,300 --> 01:47:00,840 information about Raytheon there was a 2345 01:47:04,610 --> 01:47:02,310 project they were working on and they're 2346 01:47:06,440 --> 01:47:04,620 not alone in this software publish to 2347 01:47:08,810 --> 01:47:06,450 detect whistleblowers by looking at 2348 01:47:10,220 --> 01:47:08,820 their online habits that sort of thing 2349 01:47:13,190 --> 01:47:10,230 that kind of thing 2350 01:47:15,080 --> 01:47:13,200 as with so much else there is software 2351 01:47:17,960 --> 01:47:15,090 and technology and methodology that is 2352 01:47:19,729 --> 01:47:17,970 kind of hard to hard for a skeptical 2353 01:47:22,130 --> 01:47:19,739 persons who believe in it first but 2354 01:47:24,740 --> 01:47:22,140 that's usually because if you're not a 2355 01:47:27,140 --> 01:47:24,750 specialist in psychology or or in 2356 01:47:28,580 --> 01:47:27,150 forensics or in the intelligence 2357 01:47:29,900 --> 01:47:28,590 community there's a great deal that's 2358 01:47:34,430 --> 01:47:29,910 just not going to be obvious to you and 2359 01:47:35,990 --> 01:47:34,440 so you know I'll always be aware of you 2360 01:47:37,690 --> 01:47:36,000 know that we we came across some very 2361 01:47:39,920 --> 01:47:37,700 extraordinary and disturbing programs 2362 01:47:42,050 --> 01:47:39,930 during our investigations like persona 2363 01:47:44,240 --> 01:47:42,060 Management which creates fake online 2364 01:47:47,240 --> 01:47:44,250 people and uses them for propaganda and 2365 01:47:49,160 --> 01:47:47,250 to manufacture events there's a lot of 2366 01:47:51,260 --> 01:47:49,170 things that you know objectively you 2367 01:47:53,410 --> 01:47:51,270 know neutrally impressed us with how 2368 01:47:55,610 --> 01:47:53,420 powerful and dangerous they were and 2369 01:47:57,860 --> 01:47:55,620 even putting them out even putting that 2370 01:48:00,260 --> 01:47:57,870 stuff out didn't necessarily get 2371 01:48:01,910 --> 01:48:00,270 everyone's attention and so there are a 2372 01:48:03,950 --> 01:48:01,920 lot of journalists themselves who don't 2373 01:48:07,610 --> 01:48:03,960 necessarily know what to do if they get 2374 01:48:11,240 --> 01:48:07,620 very sensitive information the the 2375 01:48:14,600 --> 01:48:11,250 community the the hacker community when 2376 01:48:18,350 --> 01:48:14,610 I went to the Hope conference in New 2377 01:48:23,090 --> 01:48:18,360 York now bear in mind I went out there 2378 01:48:25,310 --> 01:48:23,100 to I was filming my TV show right and I 2379 01:48:27,979 --> 01:48:25,320 went out there to not only attend the 2380 01:48:32,540 --> 01:48:27,989 hacker conference which we had all of 2381 01:48:35,050 --> 01:48:32,550 the the paperwork and everything to film 2382 01:48:39,410 --> 01:48:35,060 in New York and and clearance through 2383 01:48:42,080 --> 01:48:39,420 hope itself and and that those 2384 01:48:46,460 --> 01:48:42,090 credentials but I was there for Gregg 2385 01:48:50,990 --> 01:48:46,470 Housh and Gabriela Coleman amongst 2386 01:48:53,720 --> 01:48:51,000 others but what I didn't I thought that 2387 01:48:57,320 --> 01:48:53,730 the community would take a look at me 2388 01:49:01,820 --> 01:48:57,330 and go okay cool he's here to tell our 2389 01:49:04,190 --> 01:49:01,830 story it was the exact opposite I there 2390 01:49:07,250 --> 01:49:04,200 was a moment there you can imagine 2391 01:49:10,750 --> 01:49:07,260 Barrett where I brought up your name a 2392 01:49:16,460 --> 01:49:10,760 couple of times to get people's opinion 2393 01:49:19,640 --> 01:49:16,470 and and was poking and I felt like I was 2394 01:49:23,180 --> 01:49:19,650 lucky to be alive they protect 2395 01:49:24,070 --> 01:49:23,190 themselves they protect their own and I 2396 01:49:27,580 --> 01:49:24,080 was there too 2397 01:49:30,190 --> 01:49:27,590 to tell the story they wanted nothing to 2398 01:49:31,930 --> 01:49:30,200 do with me some of these people 2399 01:49:34,210 --> 01:49:31,940 especially the ones that we've had to 2400 01:49:39,880 --> 01:49:34,220 rely on here and there who are hackers 2401 01:49:42,100 --> 01:49:39,890 are not fun to work with and have you 2402 01:49:44,710 --> 01:49:42,110 know sometimes believe that their 2403 01:49:47,020 --> 01:49:44,720 knowledge of networks translates into 2404 01:49:50,830 --> 01:49:47,030 other things that it just doesn't and so 2405 01:49:52,660 --> 01:49:50,840 there is over over cautiousness 2406 01:49:54,040 --> 01:49:52,670 in some respects and under cautiousness 2407 01:49:54,850 --> 01:49:54,050 and others there's also a lot of 2408 01:49:57,220 --> 01:49:54,860 play-acting 2409 01:49:58,500 --> 01:49:57,230 it's very common among activism people 2410 01:50:00,550 --> 01:49:58,510 like to think that they're under more 2411 01:50:02,890 --> 01:50:00,560 scrutiny for the things they're doing 2412 01:50:05,050 --> 01:50:02,900 and then they are and of course we know 2413 01:50:07,360 --> 01:50:05,060 they're under a lot done potentially is 2414 01:50:09,130 --> 01:50:07,370 the extent they do anything but there's 2415 01:50:11,460 --> 01:50:09,140 also a lot of what we might call the the 2416 01:50:13,390 --> 01:50:11,470 activist version of security theater and 2417 01:50:14,980 --> 01:50:13,400 that's and that's one that makes it 2418 01:50:16,270 --> 01:50:14,990 makes it makes it harder to do the 2419 01:50:17,380 --> 01:50:16,280 things they're trying to do because they 2420 01:50:18,370 --> 01:50:17,390 don't really address that and think 2421 01:50:20,140 --> 01:50:18,380 think those things through I'm not 2422 01:50:22,900 --> 01:50:20,150 surprised that you've had a bad 2423 01:50:24,670 --> 01:50:22,910 experience trying to get these some of 2424 01:50:26,410 --> 01:50:24,680 these people to tell useful information 2425 01:50:28,720 --> 01:50:26,420 to others not all of them are in favor 2426 01:50:30,700 --> 01:50:28,730 of that not all of them are transparency 2427 01:50:33,160 --> 01:50:30,710 types some of them are just sort of 2428 01:50:35,500 --> 01:50:33,170 another it's another elite cadre of 2429 01:50:40,000 --> 01:50:35,510 people who were just there to be elite 2430 01:50:43,120 --> 01:50:40,010 well and and eventually I it took me a 2431 01:50:45,610 --> 01:50:43,130 couple of days I broke down some of 2432 01:50:48,550 --> 01:50:45,620 those barriers and I've got some of them 2433 01:50:50,710 --> 01:50:48,560 to open up but I'll tell you I I got on 2434 01:50:53,020 --> 01:50:50,720 one of the elevators and I've got you 2435 01:50:55,330 --> 01:50:53,030 know my producers with me and and a 2436 01:50:59,200 --> 01:50:55,340 director and a sound guy and a couple of 2437 01:51:00,370 --> 01:50:59,210 camp you know I had like 12 people you 2438 01:51:03,280 --> 01:51:00,380 know that were part of my production 2439 01:51:04,840 --> 01:51:03,290 team so it's big and it's obvious as you 2440 01:51:06,640 --> 01:51:04,850 can imagine right we stand out like a 2441 01:51:09,970 --> 01:51:06,650 sore thumb we get out one of the 2442 01:51:13,180 --> 01:51:09,980 elevators we're going up to the top 2443 01:51:17,470 --> 01:51:13,190 floor there and one of the guys on the 2444 01:51:19,840 --> 01:51:17,480 elevator and attendee says to me so who 2445 01:51:22,750 --> 01:51:19,850 are you and I tell him I said I'm here I 2446 01:51:27,430 --> 01:51:22,760 do this this and this and I'm here with 2447 01:51:30,160 --> 01:51:27,440 the History Channel a knee and and he 2448 01:51:33,460 --> 01:51:30,170 looked at me and said you are out of 2449 01:51:36,130 --> 01:51:33,470 your mind do not talk to me don't talk 2450 01:51:37,150 --> 01:51:36,140 to me don't and I said but but and he 2451 01:51:40,150 --> 01:51:37,160 literally 2452 01:51:43,450 --> 01:51:40,160 said do not talk to me and the elevator 2453 01:51:45,580 --> 01:51:43,460 doors open and he took off it was and I 2454 01:51:48,100 --> 01:51:45,590 thought okay here we go this is actually 2455 01:51:49,720 --> 01:51:48,110 what this is going to be like and it was 2456 01:51:53,680 --> 01:51:49,730 it was a rough road man 2457 01:51:58,660 --> 01:51:53,690 we were we were alienated I mean we were 2458 01:52:02,290 --> 01:51:58,670 forced off into a corner and were what's 2459 01:52:04,270 --> 01:52:02,300 the word shunned you know yeah well yeah 2460 01:52:06,520 --> 01:52:04,280 yeah I should I should I should I should 2461 01:52:09,190 --> 01:52:06,530 note that you know my assessment I gave 2462 01:52:11,080 --> 01:52:09,200 you minutes earlier in some cases like 2463 01:52:14,080 --> 01:52:11,090 with documentary film crews that that is 2464 01:52:15,460 --> 01:52:14,090 an attack that the FBI has used they 2465 01:52:16,690 --> 01:52:15,470 used it for instance type Lincoln in the 2466 01:52:19,180 --> 01:52:16,700 Bundy affair 2467 01:52:21,400 --> 01:52:19,190 you know faking of a documentary 2468 01:52:22,900 --> 01:52:21,410 production so it's possible that someone 2469 01:52:24,160 --> 01:52:22,910 said oh this must be another FBI thing 2470 01:52:26,650 --> 01:52:24,170 it's possible they're just they're just 2471 01:52:28,420 --> 01:52:26,660 nuts and rude that's also very very very 2472 01:52:30,250 --> 01:52:28,430 it's a real possibility we have to 2473 01:52:31,810 --> 01:52:30,260 explore but uh you know that there's 2474 01:52:33,190 --> 01:52:31,820 there's there's very good reasons 2475 01:52:34,540 --> 01:52:33,200 sometimes for them to be cautious that 2476 01:52:37,390 --> 01:52:34,550 sometimes there's not so good reasons 2477 01:52:40,090 --> 01:52:37,400 but things like things like hope things 2478 01:52:42,400 --> 01:52:40,100 like DEFCON even the ones who they 2479 01:52:44,710 --> 01:52:42,410 aren't there as intelligence agency 2480 01:52:47,170 --> 01:52:44,720 there to recruit there is a great deal 2481 01:52:48,460 --> 01:52:47,180 of informants in that community special 2482 01:52:50,560 --> 01:52:48,470 especially hackers I've seen estimates 2483 01:52:51,970 --> 01:52:50,570 that I don't think he can really ever 2484 01:52:54,100 --> 01:52:51,980 come to a really useful estimate but 2485 01:52:55,060 --> 01:52:54,110 I've seen estimates that strike me as as 2486 01:52:56,980 --> 01:52:55,070 true 2487 01:52:58,990 --> 01:52:56,990 based on my experience that you know 2488 01:53:01,330 --> 01:52:59,000 some quarter of the people you might 2489 01:53:02,620 --> 01:53:01,340 term hackers criminal hackers are 2490 01:53:05,770 --> 01:53:02,630 associated with the government in some 2491 01:53:07,630 --> 01:53:05,780 secret capacity now that's it matters 2492 01:53:09,370 --> 01:53:07,640 what the definition itself obviously is 2493 01:53:10,570 --> 01:53:09,380 a big factor there but the bottom line 2494 01:53:12,160 --> 01:53:10,580 is that this is a community that's 2495 01:53:13,390 --> 01:53:12,170 fraught through a paranoia and that 2496 01:53:15,910 --> 01:53:13,400 obviously hasn't gotten better in the 2497 01:53:18,250 --> 01:53:15,920 past five or six years yeah you know the 2498 01:53:21,460 --> 01:53:18,260 the famous game right spot the Fed you 2499 01:53:22,060 --> 01:53:21,470 know and getting that t-shirt is a badge 2500 01:53:23,950 --> 01:53:22,070 of honor 2501 01:53:25,600 --> 01:53:23,960 we'll talk about that in just a bit 2502 01:53:27,070 --> 01:53:25,610 let's go back to the phones high your 2503 01:53:30,670 --> 01:53:27,080 life I'm fade to black say hi to bear 2504 01:53:33,250 --> 01:53:30,680 brown who's calling oh this is Casper 2505 01:53:36,940 --> 01:53:33,260 parks first thank you for everything 2506 01:53:39,640 --> 01:53:36,950 you've done I recall back in the day 2507 01:53:42,460 --> 01:53:39,650 when you know the a stressor again 2508 01:53:44,920 --> 01:53:42,470 trapwire popped up which was a mass 2509 01:53:47,440 --> 01:53:44,930 surveillance of cameras and we look now 2510 01:53:50,459 --> 01:53:47,450 what's going on in China with that and 2511 01:53:52,400 --> 01:53:50,469 with what Amazon we saw 2512 01:53:55,070 --> 01:53:52,410 we're in law enforcement is doing and 2513 01:53:58,040 --> 01:53:55,080 Florida so we're risking that come to 2514 01:54:00,840 --> 01:53:58,050 patrician yells come coming out to be um 2515 01:54:02,670 --> 01:54:00,850 as seen if you adding any if you think 2516 01:54:05,160 --> 01:54:02,680 that's gonna get a lot worse now as as 2517 01:54:06,959 --> 01:54:05,170 we go forward certainly a large part 2518 01:54:09,930 --> 01:54:06,969 because but that's with that trapwire 2519 01:54:12,570 --> 01:54:09,940 situation in particular the press was 2520 01:54:14,850 --> 01:54:12,580 not able to assess that in a reasonable 2521 01:54:16,229 --> 01:54:14,860 way as in that came out of the Stratfor 2522 01:54:17,910 --> 01:54:16,239 emails at some point there was a couple 2523 01:54:19,650 --> 01:54:17,920 of articles one of the articles that was 2524 01:54:22,439 --> 01:54:19,660 in the New York Times and they quoted 2525 01:54:24,930 --> 01:54:22,449 two people one was a unnamed homeland 2526 01:54:26,880 --> 01:54:24,940 security staffer who said oh it's not a 2527 01:54:28,590 --> 01:54:26,890 big deal I mean basically said that and 2528 01:54:30,900 --> 01:54:28,600 the other one was a guy with the ACLU 2529 01:54:32,580 --> 01:54:30,910 who I don't think really understood what 2530 01:54:35,490 --> 01:54:32,590 was being asked of him 2531 01:54:37,050 --> 01:54:35,500 and so that tone was said early on and 2532 01:54:39,360 --> 01:54:37,060 you had people like Adrienne chin at 2533 01:54:41,670 --> 01:54:39,370 Gawker back then who's always been kind 2534 01:54:42,870 --> 01:54:41,680 of a goofy fellow you know just saying 2535 01:54:45,240 --> 01:54:42,880 oh this is boring this is nothing which 2536 01:54:46,830 --> 01:54:45,250 he says about everything obviously now 2537 01:54:48,240 --> 01:54:46,840 we know and that was my big problem back 2538 01:54:49,439 --> 01:54:48,250 then with that particular issue this is 2539 01:54:51,930 --> 01:54:49,449 right before I went to prison I was 2540 01:54:53,490 --> 01:54:51,940 talking a lot about how how badly that 2541 01:54:55,620 --> 01:54:53,500 have been bashed because obviously 2542 01:54:56,820 --> 01:54:55,630 facial recognition it's not something 2543 01:54:59,040 --> 01:54:56,830 really exotic it's something we've 2544 01:55:01,050 --> 01:54:59,050 thought about envision for years and 2545 01:55:02,910 --> 01:55:01,060 years yeah and it wasn't something 2546 01:55:04,140 --> 01:55:02,920 interested in me in particular compared 2547 01:55:05,820 --> 01:55:04,150 to some of these other things involving 2548 01:55:07,380 --> 01:55:05,830 propaganda and disinformation that I'm 2549 01:55:09,660 --> 01:55:07,390 much more interested in but it was 2550 01:55:10,620 --> 01:55:09,670 definitely uh it was definitely 2551 01:55:12,870 --> 01:55:10,630 something to look into 2552 01:55:15,060 --> 01:55:12,880 and obviously the you go back and look 2553 01:55:16,860 --> 01:55:15,070 at articles back then sort of mocking 2554 01:55:18,300 --> 01:55:16,870 those who are worried about it well 2555 01:55:22,200 --> 01:55:18,310 that's just one more thing in which I 2556 01:55:23,160 --> 01:55:22,210 think the we were right that that's 2557 01:55:25,350 --> 01:55:23,170 something that was going to come into 2558 01:55:27,090 --> 01:55:25,360 play very soon it's already being used 2559 01:55:28,590 --> 01:55:27,100 in a number of places I mean the tread 2560 01:55:31,170 --> 01:55:28,600 the tripod thing itself is being used in 2561 01:55:35,220 --> 01:55:31,180 the US the company that what that 2562 01:55:37,290 --> 01:55:35,230 essentially oversees that is cubic which 2563 01:55:38,640 --> 01:55:37,300 is a huge firm that even a lot of 2564 01:55:40,950 --> 01:55:38,650 security people haven't heard of a lot 2565 01:55:43,080 --> 01:55:40,960 of security journalists which also 2566 01:55:44,760 --> 01:55:43,090 oversaw like they're always subsidiary 2567 01:55:46,709 --> 01:55:44,770 companies that they hide their 2568 01:55:49,020 --> 01:55:46,719 relationship to oftentimes successfully 2569 01:55:51,570 --> 01:55:49,030 except when when we find the tax filings 2570 01:55:53,130 --> 01:55:51,580 that prove they own them they were the 2571 01:55:54,300 --> 01:55:53,140 ones that won the sitcom contract for 2572 01:55:56,550 --> 01:55:54,310 persona management's which is something 2573 01:55:59,780 --> 01:55:56,560 I alluded to earlier it's the online 2574 01:56:02,910 --> 01:55:59,790 fake people you can read about out there 2575 01:56:03,839 --> 01:56:02,920 there are that's the other big issue 2576 01:56:06,030 --> 01:56:03,849 here and that's 2577 01:56:08,850 --> 01:56:06,040 even when you find these secrets even 2578 01:56:11,220 --> 01:56:08,860 when you are already a journalist and 2579 01:56:13,050 --> 01:56:11,230 are known for investigating these issues 2580 01:56:15,330 --> 01:56:13,060 and have been successful in them it's 2581 01:56:16,770 --> 01:56:15,340 still hard to get editors and producers 2582 01:56:19,560 --> 01:56:16,780 who don't really care we don't 2583 01:56:21,600 --> 01:56:19,570 understand it to see the big picture and 2584 01:56:23,160 --> 01:56:21,610 so getting getting that information is 2585 01:56:25,100 --> 01:56:23,170 half the battle the other half is 2586 01:56:28,350 --> 01:56:25,110 getting the press to do its job 2587 01:56:32,010 --> 01:56:28,360 III want to jump in Casper is still on 2588 01:56:34,640 --> 01:56:32,020 the line and another question okay well 2589 01:56:37,649 --> 01:56:34,650 I wanted to let Barrett know that 2590 01:56:39,780 --> 01:56:37,659 Casper's an author and a great author by 2591 01:56:41,010 --> 01:56:39,790 the way and you should check out some of 2592 01:56:44,189 --> 01:56:41,020 the stuff I'll send you his books 2593 01:56:47,399 --> 01:56:44,199 Barrett but what I wanted I wanted to 2594 01:56:50,910 --> 01:56:47,409 ask a question and have Caspar hear the 2595 01:56:56,220 --> 01:56:50,920 answer Barrett your your writing style 2596 01:57:00,450 --> 01:56:56,230 is something that is for me very fluid 2597 01:57:02,669 --> 01:57:00,460 and is it something that is it your 2598 01:57:03,600 --> 01:57:02,679 brain directly connected to your 2599 01:57:06,330 --> 01:57:03,610 fingertips 2600 01:57:08,220 --> 01:57:06,340 is it very is it fluid I mean is it just 2601 01:57:11,850 --> 01:57:08,230 flow out of you or do you have to work 2602 01:57:13,470 --> 01:57:11,860 at it well I started writing I had some 2603 01:57:15,419 --> 01:57:13,480 internships at newspapers when I was 2604 01:57:17,640 --> 01:57:15,429 fifteen and sixteen in Mexico and Dallas 2605 01:57:20,280 --> 01:57:17,650 and then got some freelance gigs by the 2606 01:57:22,649 --> 01:57:20,290 time that I got to University of Texas 2607 01:57:24,569 --> 01:57:22,659 and I quickly I quit cuz I got a 2608 01:57:25,979 --> 01:57:24,579 grunting job for AOL and so for them 2609 01:57:27,450 --> 01:57:25,989 back in this back in the tooth back in 2610 01:57:29,430 --> 01:57:27,460 2000 when there was all this money to be 2611 01:57:31,169 --> 01:57:29,440 thrown around for online contents and 2612 01:57:32,729 --> 01:57:31,179 then that tried up for a while I was 2613 01:57:34,290 --> 01:57:32,739 writing about women's shoe stores I was 2614 01:57:35,790 --> 01:57:34,300 writing about 30 different tex-mex 2615 01:57:38,069 --> 01:57:35,800 restaurants in Austin and having to 2616 01:57:39,930 --> 01:57:38,079 differentiate each one I was writing 2617 01:57:42,479 --> 01:57:39,940 40,000 words on the band's at South by 2618 01:57:43,020 --> 01:57:42,489 Southwest and I had no idea what they 2619 01:57:46,169 --> 01:57:43,030 sounded like 2620 01:57:49,020 --> 01:57:46,179 and so that was that was worse than 2621 01:57:50,850 --> 01:57:49,030 prison you know and so it's something 2622 01:57:52,140 --> 01:57:50,860 you it's something that you develop you 2623 01:57:54,270 --> 01:57:52,150 know just like with riding a bicycle or 2624 01:57:56,339 --> 01:57:54,280 becoming a ninja or anything or anything 2625 01:57:58,740 --> 01:57:56,349 else it's just something that is now 2626 01:58:01,740 --> 01:57:58,750 ingrained into my neurons I suppose yeah 2627 01:58:05,339 --> 01:58:01,750 because it sounds exactly like you speak 2628 01:58:07,169 --> 01:58:05,349 or - no it reads like you speak it's the 2629 01:58:12,030 --> 01:58:07,179 wrong way to put it Kaspar you had one 2630 01:58:13,680 --> 01:58:12,040 more question right i I know that no 2631 01:58:15,290 --> 01:58:13,690 harm ahead I think was a twin brother 2632 01:58:17,680 --> 01:58:15,300 was in a rock band 2633 01:58:21,220 --> 01:58:17,690 curious how has the band was doing a few 2634 01:58:24,280 --> 01:58:21,230 about that and when Harmon had his or 2635 01:58:26,620 --> 01:58:24,290 had this trial or the question about the 2636 01:58:30,700 --> 01:58:26,630 judges fall says some kind of financial 2637 01:58:33,520 --> 01:58:30,710 time to Stratford and oh yes a new judge 2638 01:58:36,670 --> 01:58:33,530 in that or not I'm noting with the twin 2639 01:58:38,800 --> 01:58:36,680 both thing that there it was pointed out 2640 01:58:40,240 --> 01:58:38,810 in fact Kevin Gallagher who runs who is 2641 01:58:41,709 --> 01:58:40,250 from scratch built this whole free 2642 01:58:43,420 --> 01:58:41,719 Barrett Brown apparatus when after I was 2643 01:58:44,800 --> 01:58:43,430 arrested and managed to raise all this 2644 01:58:47,260 --> 01:58:44,810 money for my legal defense and managed 2645 01:58:50,950 --> 01:58:47,270 to sort of Lobby the press and get them 2646 01:58:53,410 --> 01:58:50,960 to pay attention he he or someone else 2647 01:58:56,590 --> 01:58:53,420 noted and publicized the fact that Judge 2648 01:58:58,870 --> 01:58:56,600 Sam Lindsay's wife was on the board of 2649 01:59:01,510 --> 01:58:58,880 directors of one of these firms I can't 2650 01:59:04,870 --> 01:59:01,520 read which one but there was an arguable 2651 01:59:08,470 --> 01:59:04,880 conflict of interest that I would say 2652 01:59:09,970 --> 01:59:08,480 you know even if that is illicit if that 2653 01:59:11,260 --> 01:59:09,980 is something that rises to the level of 2654 01:59:13,390 --> 01:59:11,270 he should recuse himself which I don't 2655 01:59:14,560 --> 01:59:13,400 really have a strong opinion on it paled 2656 01:59:15,760 --> 01:59:14,570 in comparison to other things that 2657 01:59:17,140 --> 01:59:15,770 happened or in that case I mean the 2658 01:59:18,250 --> 01:59:17,150 Declaration of Independence was seized 2659 01:59:20,080 --> 01:59:18,260 from my apartment 2660 01:59:22,660 --> 01:59:20,090 as evidence of a crime I made sure to 2661 01:59:23,950 --> 01:59:22,670 note that in my sentencing hearing you 2662 01:59:25,750 --> 01:59:23,960 know so he eventually ordered you gotta 2663 01:59:27,910 --> 01:59:25,760 give it back I mean the whole thing was 2664 01:59:29,020 --> 01:59:27,920 just so vastly problematic that I really 2665 01:59:31,150 --> 01:59:29,030 haven't even thought that much about 2666 01:59:33,400 --> 01:59:31,160 that conflict of interest his big 2667 01:59:35,110 --> 01:59:33,410 problem was that he believes FBI agents 2668 01:59:38,500 --> 01:59:35,120 when they go on the stand and no one 2669 01:59:40,840 --> 01:59:38,510 else does so Casper thank you so much 2670 01:59:44,470 --> 01:59:40,850 man when's the when's your next book 2671 01:59:46,780 --> 01:59:44,480 coming out oh god I'm hoping sometime 2672 01:59:49,630 --> 01:59:46,790 after the first of the year yeah okay 2673 01:59:50,500 --> 01:59:49,640 well I'm shooting for that's a you and 2674 01:59:52,330 --> 01:59:50,510 Barrett together 2675 01:59:53,500 --> 01:59:52,340 there you go all right I'll talk to you 2676 01:59:55,540 --> 01:59:53,510 soon I was ready to pray answer my 2677 01:59:57,640 --> 01:59:55,550 questions about Dickie Casper's thank 2678 02:00:00,939 --> 01:59:57,650 you Thank You Casper have a great night 2679 02:00:04,000 --> 02:00:00,949 and I wanted to go back I've got like 2680 02:00:08,920 --> 02:00:04,010 two minutes but he brought up Aaron 2681 02:00:14,040 --> 02:00:08,930 Schwartz and again just just a tragic 2682 02:00:18,040 --> 02:00:14,050 story beyond words but most people today 2683 02:00:19,870 --> 02:00:18,050 because of the timing of everything and 2684 02:00:22,300 --> 02:00:19,880 how it went down they don't know the 2685 02:00:25,840 --> 02:00:22,310 Aaron Schwartz story or his impact on 2686 02:00:28,810 --> 02:00:25,850 the internet and his talent his talent 2687 02:00:31,240 --> 02:00:28,820 was beyond measure and when you think 2688 02:00:36,010 --> 02:00:31,250 about RSS and the other things 2689 02:00:38,920 --> 02:00:36,020 he was not only fundamental in but they 2690 02:00:42,940 --> 02:00:38,930 they killed him you know and they 2691 02:00:45,400 --> 02:00:42,950 literally ruined a 26 year old young man 2692 02:00:47,260 --> 02:00:45,410 that was one of the most talented period 2693 02:00:50,230 --> 02:00:47,270 and responsible for what we are doing 2694 02:00:53,920 --> 02:00:50,240 today on the Internet Aaron Swartz his 2695 02:00:55,750 --> 02:00:53,930 vision now was expensive and you know I 2696 02:00:57,430 --> 02:00:55,760 spoke to Aaron Schwartz day last year 2697 02:00:59,560 --> 02:00:57,440 that's actually where we unveiled part 2698 02:01:00,940 --> 02:00:59,570 of the pursuance project and we'll be 2699 02:01:02,200 --> 02:01:00,950 speaking again next year and they've 2700 02:01:03,970 --> 02:01:02,210 actually been very heavily involved in 2701 02:01:09,070 --> 02:01:03,980 this Kickstarter we have going on that 2702 02:01:11,380 --> 02:01:09,080 ends in three days by the way we're 2703 02:01:12,970 --> 02:01:11,390 trying to finish something that should 2704 02:01:16,300 --> 02:01:12,980 have happened already by building this 2705 02:01:17,860 --> 02:01:16,310 network he had he had various you know 2706 02:01:19,510 --> 02:01:17,870 he was a specialist he was a technology 2707 02:01:21,550 --> 02:01:19,520 specialist and so some of his stuff is 2708 02:01:23,020 --> 02:01:21,560 beyond my purview but in the broad in 2709 02:01:26,440 --> 02:01:23,030 the main and I met him a couple times 2710 02:01:28,330 --> 02:01:26,450 online when he was going to do some FOI 2711 02:01:30,640 --> 02:01:28,340 requests on that persona management 2712 02:01:31,810 --> 02:01:30,650 apparatus we were looking into and just 2713 02:01:33,100 --> 02:01:31,820 didn't really know much about him back 2714 02:01:35,320 --> 02:01:33,110 then it wasn't until he killed himself 2715 02:01:37,660 --> 02:01:35,330 and I was already in prison that I 2716 02:01:39,400 --> 02:01:37,670 learned who it was I've been talking to 2717 02:01:42,420 --> 02:01:39,410 and what this guy was capable of and 2718 02:01:48,070 --> 02:01:42,430 what we kind of lost thanks to the DOJ 2719 02:01:50,760 --> 02:01:48,080 it's an unbelievable story and ok we're 2720 02:01:53,530 --> 02:01:50,770 gonna take a break right here I mean I 2721 02:01:57,640 --> 02:01:53,540 when it comes is this is the this is 2722 02:02:00,640 --> 02:01:57,650 what really disturbs me bear it when you 2723 02:02:04,180 --> 02:02:00,650 look at all of these individuals you 2724 02:02:09,070 --> 02:02:04,190 being one of course but how these lives 2725 02:02:11,350 --> 02:02:09,080 were were affected and and in some cases 2726 02:02:13,510 --> 02:02:11,360 tragically like Aaron who ended up 2727 02:02:16,000 --> 02:02:13,520 committing suicide because of these 2728 02:02:18,940 --> 02:02:16,010 threats of you know a million years in 2729 02:02:20,890 --> 02:02:18,950 in jail and millions of dollars in fines 2730 02:02:25,600 --> 02:02:20,900 and your parents and your reputation and 2731 02:02:27,370 --> 02:02:25,610 your family all over the internet and 2732 02:02:29,770 --> 02:02:27,380 and about the internet and about 2733 02:02:33,220 --> 02:02:29,780 decentralization and about being an 2734 02:02:35,740 --> 02:02:33,230 activist and that I think is is one of 2735 02:02:39,730 --> 02:02:35,750 the most saddest parts about all of this 2736 02:02:43,690 --> 02:02:39,740 for me personally it's important to us 2737 02:02:45,270 --> 02:02:43,700 that a portion of his vision be realized 2738 02:02:46,830 --> 02:02:45,280 in this project and that's 2739 02:02:50,189 --> 02:02:46,840 you know with a lot of his associates 2740 02:02:51,510 --> 02:02:50,199 are involved here it's important to a 2741 02:02:53,010 --> 02:02:51,520 lot of people obviously the more when 2742 02:02:54,450 --> 02:02:53,020 you there's some documentaries now about 2743 02:02:56,399 --> 02:02:54,460 him so he'd so hopefully he's gotten 2744 02:02:57,750 --> 02:02:56,409 some wider recognition not just for 2745 02:03:00,660 --> 02:02:57,760 having been someone who was unfairly 2746 02:03:04,040 --> 02:03:00,670 targeted but is someone who in being 2747 02:03:07,020 --> 02:03:04,050 unfairly targeted the the world lost out 2748 02:03:10,169 --> 02:03:07,030 by that and that's something that I 2749 02:03:14,609 --> 02:03:10,179 think over time he's going to be 2750 02:03:18,299 --> 02:03:14,619 remembered as a very pressured fellow 2751 02:03:20,540 --> 02:03:18,309 who you know had great potentials at the 2752 02:03:24,779 --> 02:03:20,550 state as it as it has throughout history 2753 02:03:27,870 --> 02:03:24,789 crushed yeah and every time you see RSS 2754 02:03:31,770 --> 02:03:27,880 feed click here that's Aaron Schwartz 2755 02:03:34,709 --> 02:03:31,780 you know and he was a kid when he wrote 2756 02:03:37,140 --> 02:03:34,719 that and had that vision a kid a kid a 2757 02:03:38,399 --> 02:03:37,150 teenager absolutely incredible let's 2758 02:03:40,680 --> 02:03:38,409 take a break right here our guest 2759 02:03:43,319 --> 02:03:40,690 tonight Barrett Brown

02:09:25,870 functioning in this admittedly 2878 02:09:33,030 --> 02:09:30,330 dysfunctional government question 2879 02:09:35,370 --> 02:09:33,040 absolutely to some extent I mean there's 2880 02:09:37,500 --> 02:09:35,380 still things being properly done here 2881 02:09:38,940 --> 02:09:37,510 and there there are good journalists who 2882 02:09:41,190 --> 02:09:38,950 know what they're doing some of them are 2883 02:09:43,440 --> 02:09:41,200 younger some of them have sort of old 2884 02:09:44,790 --> 02:09:43,450 school you know people who've been 2885 02:09:46,410 --> 02:09:44,800 around a while and if I'm developed 2886 02:09:47,940 --> 02:09:46,420 talents for investigative journalism 2887 02:09:52,080 --> 02:09:47,950 I've seen it happen I've worked with 2888 02:09:54,930 --> 02:09:52,090 many of them but on the whole it is not 2889 02:09:57,060 --> 02:09:54,940 up to the task of serving as our central 2890 02:09:59,000 --> 02:09:57,070 nervous system for a complex 21st 2891 02:10:01,140 --> 02:09:59,010 century imperial republic it's just not 2892 02:10:03,270 --> 02:10:01,150 and that should be of concern to anyone 2893 02:10:04,770 --> 02:10:03,280 whether or not you support the imperial 2894 02:10:07,230 --> 02:10:04,780 republic well you know regardless of how 2895 02:10:09,990 --> 02:10:07,240 you think about the u.s. it is not a 2896 02:10:11,940 --> 02:10:10,000 good thing to have a media 2897 02:10:15,110 --> 02:10:11,950 infrastructure that still thinks pretty 2898 02:10:17,670 --> 02:10:15,120 highly of itself despite all things 2899 02:10:19,080 --> 02:10:17,680 because to the extent that they are 2900 02:10:21,240 --> 02:10:19,090 worthwhile 2901 02:10:22,919 --> 02:10:21,250 they are to some extent when they get 2902 02:10:24,330 --> 02:10:22,929 things wrong and don't and don't deal 2903 02:10:26,399 --> 02:10:24,340 with those things and that this is one 2904 02:10:28,140 --> 02:10:26,409 of my main focuses before I got involved 2905 02:10:30,600 --> 02:10:28,150 Anonymous was immediate media criticism 2906 02:10:33,390 --> 02:10:30,610 that was my profession essentially and 2907 02:10:35,550 --> 02:10:33,400 it's still kind of is there is there is 2908 02:10:36,930 --> 02:10:35,560 no negative feedback for the most part 2909 02:10:38,459 --> 02:10:36,940 in the system as then you can be a 2910 02:10:39,300 --> 02:10:38,469 columnist like Thomas Friedman or 2911 02:10:41,970 --> 02:10:39,310 Charles Krauthammer 2912 02:10:43,550 --> 02:10:41,980 and you can if you if you go back and 2913 02:10:46,140 --> 02:10:43,560 read their output in the last 15 years 2914 02:10:48,089 --> 02:10:46,150 20 years even you'll notice that they 2915 02:10:50,430 --> 02:10:48,099 tend to get their predictions absolutely 2916 02:10:52,320 --> 02:10:50,440 wrong and they get away with it because 2917 02:10:54,510 --> 02:10:52,330 first one thing people rarely go back 2918 02:10:56,640 --> 02:10:54,520 and read old columns by these Pulitzer 2919 02:10:57,839 --> 02:10:56,650 Prize winners and second of all the 2920 02:10:59,580 --> 02:10:57,849 people in Washington Post in New York 2921 02:11:01,760 --> 02:10:59,590 Times don't necessarily care these are 2922 02:11:04,080 --> 02:11:01,770 celebrity colonists they have a name 2923 02:11:06,479 --> 02:11:04,090 their output the action whether or not 2924 02:11:08,700 --> 02:11:06,489 it affects us for better or good is 2925 02:11:10,140 --> 02:11:08,710 decide to decide the point to them and 2926 02:11:11,580 --> 02:11:10,150 most of them don't have any idea they 2927 02:11:13,290 --> 02:11:11,590 don't they don't know one way the other 2928 02:11:14,879 --> 02:11:13,300 if these are valuable comic colonists if 2929 02:11:17,729 --> 02:11:14,889 they were wrong about every single war 2930 02:11:20,040 --> 02:11:17,739 in the past 20 years even down in the 2931 02:11:22,850 --> 02:11:20,050 specifics in some cases and are still 2932 02:11:25,200 --> 02:11:22,860 considered by other big mainstream 2933 02:11:26,729 --> 02:11:25,210 colonists as military experts for 2934 02:11:29,189 --> 02:11:26,739 instance so any other industry that 2935 02:11:31,439 --> 02:11:29,199 works like that would fail the media is 2936 02:11:36,149 --> 02:11:31,449 able to kind of fail without it being as 2937 02:11:38,459 --> 02:11:36,159 clear of the extent as it would be if it 2938 02:11:40,200 --> 02:11:38,469 was a mechanic fixing your car that's 2939 02:11:41,430 --> 02:11:40,210 the very much the nature of politics in 2940 02:11:43,229 --> 02:11:41,440 sociology in general is that is that 2941 02:11:45,419 --> 02:11:43,239 those are the places you can be utterly 2942 02:11:47,040 --> 02:11:45,429 wrong utterly unreasonable and still be 2943 02:11:47,939 --> 02:11:47,050 successful and so that's a problem and 2944 02:11:49,609 --> 02:11:47,949 it's one of the things that we're trying 2945 02:11:52,620 --> 02:11:49,619 to fix the pursuance by kind of 2946 02:11:54,270 --> 02:11:52,630 providing this apparatus for crowdsource 2947 02:11:56,040 --> 02:11:54,280 research among other things and trying 2948 02:11:57,810 --> 02:11:56,050 to get more journalists to use this and 2949 02:11:59,669 --> 02:11:57,820 tell them and show them look this works 2950 02:12:00,959 --> 02:11:59,679 having crowdsourcing works under certain 2951 02:12:02,580 --> 02:12:00,969 conditions and we know a little bit 2952 02:12:04,770 --> 02:12:02,590 about it you can find out more 2953 02:12:07,020 --> 02:12:04,780 experimenting with it let's make your 2954 02:12:08,640 --> 02:12:07,030 job easier so that's that's the solution 2955 02:12:10,220 --> 02:12:08,650 I've been looking at for 10 years that's 2956 02:12:12,510 --> 02:12:10,230 that's what pursuance really grew out of 2957 02:12:14,160 --> 02:12:12,520 and it's something we can build upon and 2958 02:12:15,930 --> 02:12:14,170 meanwhile we can build an independent 2959 02:12:18,000 --> 02:12:15,940 press outlets as has been done 2960 02:12:19,260 --> 02:12:18,010 successfully in some cases and expand 2961 02:12:21,149 --> 02:12:19,270 their reach and that's that's happened 2962 02:12:27,890 --> 02:12:21,159 to so that's why I would say it's not 2963 02:12:32,279 --> 02:12:27,900 entirely it's not entirely broken and 2964 02:12:37,289 --> 02:12:34,589 you didn't say it I will so I'll state 2965 02:12:41,250 --> 02:12:37,299 it it's come down to not about being 2966 02:12:43,379 --> 02:12:41,260 right or wrong but it's about clicks yes 2967 02:12:45,059 --> 02:12:43,389 that's that's a huge part of that's what 2968 02:12:47,669 --> 02:12:45,069 people wanting out for the most part you 2969 02:12:49,500 --> 02:12:47,679 know that's that's a a cardinal sin of 2970 02:12:51,199 --> 02:12:49,510 humanity that a great deal of the 2971 02:12:54,779 --> 02:12:51,209 American public has fallen insu of 2972 02:12:57,000 --> 02:12:54,789 tribalism caring less about principles 2973 02:12:58,770 --> 02:12:57,010 and more about you know some alleged 2974 02:13:02,429 --> 02:12:58,780 long-term goal that you that you feel 2975 02:13:05,429 --> 02:13:02,439 requires you know hypocrisy 2976 02:13:08,879 --> 02:13:05,439 you know obscurantism the whole what 2977 02:13:12,149 --> 02:13:08,889 Europe was run on obscurantism for a 2978 02:13:15,179 --> 02:13:12,159 long time we call the Dark Ages and you 2979 02:13:17,549 --> 02:13:15,189 know it's it's it is not a game it's the 2980 02:13:18,809 --> 02:13:17,559 trend that most frightens me there's all 2981 02:13:22,079 --> 02:13:18,819 kinds of things that can go wrong that 2982 02:13:24,869 --> 02:13:22,089 we can fix but when the media has has 2983 02:13:26,069 --> 02:13:24,879 severe systemic deficits that are not 2984 02:13:28,289 --> 02:13:26,079 going to be addressed from the inside 2985 02:13:29,729 --> 02:13:28,299 and when the public itself for the most 2986 02:13:34,020 --> 02:13:29,739 part even if there are things I agree 2987 02:13:36,569 --> 02:13:34,030 with them about you know the it's it's 2988 02:13:38,369 --> 02:13:36,579 frightening the extent of it let's go to 2989 02:13:39,899 --> 02:13:38,379 the phones how your life on fade to 2990 02:13:44,099 --> 02:13:39,909 black who's calling say how to bear 2991 02:13:49,259 --> 02:13:44,109 brown bear hi how are you this is a 2992 02:13:50,819 --> 02:13:49,269 Isaac from Anaheim excellent call you 2993 02:13:54,359 --> 02:13:50,829 make so many good points let me tell you 2994 02:13:58,439 --> 02:13:54,369 I was very involved in Hollywood okay I 2995 02:14:02,429 --> 02:13:58,449 can't tell you what I do but ever since 2996 02:14:07,969 --> 02:14:02,439 the day that Trump was elected I was on 2997 02:14:10,679 --> 02:14:07,979 a set somewhere and I knew these people 2998 02:14:12,899 --> 02:14:10,689 we're not acting rationally these people 2999 02:14:15,539 --> 02:14:12,909 were crying there was like like babies 3000 02:14:17,969 --> 02:14:15,549 having tantrums these people in 3001 02:14:22,529 --> 02:14:17,979 Hollywood have been in control for so 3002 02:14:29,549 --> 02:14:22,539 long with their mind-control MKULTRA CIA 3003 02:14:31,529 --> 02:14:29,559 FBI deep state manipulation that that is 3004 02:14:33,839 --> 02:14:31,539 really what bothers them right now and 3005 02:14:36,750 --> 02:14:33,849 it's going to bother them as long as you 3006 02:14:39,569 --> 02:14:36,760 know Trump is in office right now these 3007 02:14:43,500 --> 02:14:39,579 people knew that they've had control of 3008 02:14:45,029 --> 02:14:43,510 culture and now they're starting to lose 3009 02:14:45,720 --> 02:14:45,039 that control because the Internet's 3010 02:14:48,240 --> 02:14:45,730 taking 3011 02:14:50,220 --> 02:14:48,250 I mean they still have Netflix which is 3012 02:14:53,370 --> 02:14:50,230 part of their control paradigm they 3013 02:14:56,310 --> 02:14:53,380 still have China owning AMC Theaters 3014 02:14:59,340 --> 02:14:56,320 they have they basically the zionists 3015 02:15:04,460 --> 02:14:59,350 mixed with the Communists and the Saudi 3016 02:15:06,180 --> 02:15:04,470 wahabis are now the new axis of evil 3017 02:15:09,330 --> 02:15:06,190 unfortunately we're aligned with that 3018 02:15:12,810 --> 02:15:09,340 that's a pretty interesting take and 3019 02:15:18,960 --> 02:15:12,820 thank you for that Isaac do you see him 3020 02:15:21,480 --> 02:15:18,970 well okay I let me say this Trump had a 3021 02:15:25,470 --> 02:15:21,490 reality show for seven or eight years 3022 02:15:26,850 --> 02:15:25,480 and he got another show he is someone 3023 02:15:28,680 --> 02:15:26,860 who associate very closely with the 3024 02:15:30,780 --> 02:15:28,690 person that this caller with the people 3025 02:15:33,480 --> 02:15:30,790 that this call or uh attributes these 3026 02:15:35,580 --> 02:15:33,490 characteristics to so I would find it 3027 02:15:37,020 --> 02:15:35,590 very surprising if it turned out that 3028 02:15:38,700 --> 02:15:37,030 he's going to do the things that a lot 3029 02:15:41,040 --> 02:15:38,710 of the people for instance you follow q 3030 02:15:43,830 --> 02:15:41,050 and on think he's going to do there's 3031 02:15:48,270 --> 02:15:43,840 nothing in his history that that really 3032 02:15:50,460 --> 02:15:48,280 indicates that to anyone who's not just 3033 02:15:52,470 --> 02:15:50,470 looking for a silver clout the silver 3034 02:15:54,330 --> 02:15:52,480 lining this is like this is a guy with a 3035 02:15:56,130 --> 02:15:54,340 long documented history that you don't 3036 02:15:57,420 --> 02:15:56,140 have to depend on any what anyone said 3037 02:16:00,180 --> 02:15:57,430 about him you can go and look at his 3038 02:16:02,340 --> 02:16:00,190 statements and I think it's kind of 3039 02:16:05,180 --> 02:16:02,350 unusual I think it's strange that he's 3040 02:16:07,230 --> 02:16:05,190 been attributed this anti-establishment 3041 02:16:09,420 --> 02:16:07,240 when he is the nicest outfit in the way 3042 02:16:11,100 --> 02:16:09,430 that he does he does has broken down a 3043 02:16:13,920 --> 02:16:11,110 lot of the frou-frou he's broken down a 3044 02:16:15,540 --> 02:16:13,930 lot of the the edifice which is helpful 3045 02:16:17,520 --> 02:16:15,550 to people like me obviously because that 3046 02:16:20,760 --> 02:16:17,530 edifice was really the only thing that 3047 02:16:23,550 --> 02:16:20,770 was convincing vague minded people that 3048 02:16:28,020 --> 02:16:23,560 this system that is is in great shape so 3049 02:16:30,030 --> 02:16:28,030 that's actually good again I the man he 3050 02:16:31,740 --> 02:16:30,040 himself has made pretty clear his 3051 02:16:33,180 --> 02:16:31,750 beliefs about individual rights he's 3052 02:16:35,340 --> 02:16:33,190 done it over and over again and I don't 3053 02:16:39,209 --> 02:16:35,350 see him as the hero who's going to come 3054 02:16:40,590 --> 02:16:39,219 and restore all of the the various 3055 02:16:43,170 --> 02:16:40,600 things that we were supposedly taken 3056 02:16:46,050 --> 02:16:43,180 from by you know the Hollywood people or 3057 02:16:49,530 --> 02:16:46,060 whoever yeah and and I understand the 3058 02:16:51,930 --> 02:16:49,540 call but there's another thing about 3059 02:16:54,060 --> 02:16:51,940 this that of first off I don't do 3060 02:16:56,280 --> 02:16:54,070 politics on the show and one of the 3061 02:16:59,010 --> 02:16:56,290 reasons why I do the conspiracy of 3062 02:16:59,209 --> 02:16:59,020 politics that that's an easy road to go 3063 02:17:01,519 --> 02:16:59,219 to 3064 02:17:04,009 --> 02:17:01,529 but the reason why I don't do politics 3065 02:17:08,599 --> 02:17:04,019 and especially more and more today is 3066 02:17:14,179 --> 02:17:08,609 that it absolutely divides and causes 3067 02:17:15,169 --> 02:17:14,189 anger I have an audience that is very 3068 02:17:18,169 --> 02:17:15,179 diverse 3069 02:17:20,990 --> 02:17:18,179 and I want them to stay together and and 3070 02:17:23,629 --> 02:17:21,000 as soon it today it just doesn't matter 3071 02:17:27,860 --> 02:17:23,639 the media has chosen the lines in the 3072 02:17:31,849 --> 02:17:27,870 sand and they enjoy the divide and 3073 02:17:34,400 --> 02:17:31,859 conquer rule that is that is so 3074 02:17:36,410 --> 02:17:34,410 prevalent and that it disturbs me so 3075 02:17:39,650 --> 02:17:36,420 when we talk about Trump we could say 3076 02:17:43,009 --> 02:17:39,660 the same thing about a Democrat the 3077 02:17:45,440 --> 02:17:43,019 democratically elected president I think 3078 02:17:47,650 --> 02:17:45,450 those same issues would be there and it 3079 02:17:50,479 --> 02:17:47,660 doesn't really matter so I just II 3080 02:17:52,190 --> 02:17:50,489 understand might my take on this law 3081 02:17:54,559 --> 02:17:52,200 salutely and it's a very reasonable 3082 02:17:56,839 --> 02:17:54,569 approach you know obviously that the key 3083 02:17:59,030 --> 02:17:56,849 thing is to assemble coalition's that 3084 02:18:01,179 --> 02:17:59,040 can do these things that no one that no 3085 02:18:05,299 --> 02:18:01,189 reasonable person who appreciates 3086 02:18:07,219 --> 02:18:05,309 individual rights in this agree on so we 3087 02:18:09,709 --> 02:18:07,229 can differ about what the causes are and 3088 02:18:11,479 --> 02:18:09,719 we can differ about you know the 3089 02:18:13,009 --> 02:18:11,489 particular people involved I happen not 3090 02:18:14,809 --> 02:18:13,019 to think for instance that it makes a 3091 02:18:16,759 --> 02:18:14,819 great deal of sense to say the Trump is 3092 02:18:19,099 --> 02:18:16,769 going to oppose the Zionists given what 3093 02:18:20,870 --> 02:18:19,109 he's actually done in Israel but again 3094 02:18:23,719 --> 02:18:20,880 you know it's just it's one of those 3095 02:18:25,580 --> 02:18:23,729 things where people sort themselves out 3096 02:18:27,290 --> 02:18:25,590 into effective groups that can you know 3097 02:18:29,599 --> 02:18:27,300 they can decide for themselves what 3098 02:18:31,160 --> 02:18:29,609 they're willing to agree with what 3099 02:18:33,950 --> 02:18:31,170 they're willing to agree to disagree on 3100 02:18:36,379 --> 02:18:33,960 and to the extent we get that right and 3101 02:18:39,040 --> 02:18:36,389 bring in people who you know who are 3102 02:18:40,940 --> 02:18:39,050 intellectually honest at the very least 3103 02:18:43,879 --> 02:18:40,950 then we can see these things being 3104 02:18:47,990 --> 02:18:43,889 addressed in ways that uh that I think 3105 02:18:51,080 --> 02:18:48,000 loose that overly broad ideology and 3106 02:18:53,959 --> 02:18:51,090 over broad theories about what is doing 3107 02:18:56,419 --> 02:18:53,969 what doesn't help us do as much it's not 3108 02:18:59,809 --> 02:18:56,429 as effective as nuanced thinking yeah 3109 02:19:04,309 --> 02:18:59,819 and in those days those days are gone in 3110 02:19:06,169 --> 02:19:04,319 that if if you are in a conversation it 3111 02:19:09,110 --> 02:19:06,179 doesn't even have to be on this show it 3112 02:19:12,160 --> 02:19:09,120 could be at a restaurant and somebody 3113 02:19:14,799 --> 02:19:12,170 brings up Trump or brings of hiller 3114 02:19:17,110 --> 02:19:14,809 you know some of what I'm out of here 3115 02:19:20,650 --> 02:19:17,120 you know and suddenly it's all those 3116 02:19:22,990 --> 02:19:20,660 anger where it whatever happened to 3117 02:19:25,480 --> 02:19:23,000 listening and the other thing is it's 3118 02:19:27,339 --> 02:19:25,490 really a simple point this country is 3119 02:19:29,860 --> 02:19:27,349 built on people being different and 3120 02:19:32,049 --> 02:19:29,870 that's what made us so cool that's what 3121 02:19:34,419 --> 02:19:32,059 made it so great everybody was different 3122 02:19:38,350 --> 02:19:34,429 and we collectively just came together 3123 02:19:40,780 --> 02:19:38,360 and and and because of that it's what 3124 02:19:43,839 --> 02:19:40,790 made this country's foundation so strong 3125 02:19:47,080 --> 02:19:43,849 and now nobody wants to even contemplate 3126 02:19:49,390 --> 02:19:47,090 the past and what what made this country 3127 02:19:52,570 --> 02:19:49,400 great to begin with it's a it's a 3128 02:19:55,090 --> 02:19:52,580 fascinating thing to see happen and 3129 02:19:56,740 --> 02:19:55,100 happen so so quickly in this country 3130 02:19:58,300 --> 02:19:56,750 let's go back to the phones hi you're 3131 02:20:04,740 --> 02:19:58,310 live on fade to black say how to bare a 3132 02:20:07,870 -->

community as far as breaking 3138 02:20:30,940 --> 02:20:27,250 open the secrecy and making sure people 3139 02:20:33,760 --> 02:20:30,950 understand what is being hidden is very 3140 02:20:36,219 --> 02:20:33,770 important and it's kind of like how I 3141 02:20:40,060 --> 02:20:36,229 feel from from like my side of the fence 3142 02:20:42,550 --> 02:20:40,070 as far as ufology and UFOs go because we 3143 02:20:45,370 --> 02:20:42,560 are you know trying to get all these 3144 02:20:48,700 --> 02:20:45,380 these secrets broken open and and get 3145 02:20:51,640 --> 02:20:48,710 everybody to see

02:20:56,270 that side of the of the you know the 3149 02:21:02,050 --> 02:20:59,810 hacker quote-unquote side of it kind of 3150 02:21:04,660 --> 02:21:02,060 it almost feels like to me like like 3151 02:21:06,580 --> 02:21:04,670 we're going to be an amalgamation where 3152 02:21:08,260 --> 02:21:06,590 it's all going to come together from all 3153 02:21:10,600 --> 02:21:08,270 you know and and and other different 3154 02:21:12,910 --> 02:21:10,610 genres as well because there's so much 3155 02:21:15,969 --> 02:21:12,920 hidden from us and I kind of wonder how 3156 02:21:18,820 --> 02:21:15,979 you feel about you know the kind of UFO 3157 02:21:22,450 --> 02:21:18,830 phenomenon as it as it you know as 3158 02:21:25,120 --> 02:21:22,460 perspective to to like just secrecy as 3159 02:21:26,140 --> 02:21:25,130 far as in general for what the 3160 02:21:28,780 --> 02:21:26,150 government is hidden 3161 02:21:30,820 --> 02:21:28,790 and corporations have hidden and all 3162 02:21:34,240 --> 02:21:30,830 these things that they do I mean how how 3163 02:21:36,990 --> 02:21:34,250 involved do you feel UFOs and and 3164 02:21:40,091 --> 02:21:37,000 ultimately extraterrestrials were 3165 02:21:43,390 --> 02:21:40,101 reflecting that it's never been at the 3166 02:21:46,810 --> 02:21:43,400 forefront of my thinking so in large 3167 02:21:49,240 --> 02:21:46,820 part because it's so inaccessible as in 3168 02:21:52,900 --> 02:21:49,250 its for one thing it's not something 3169 02:21:57,820 --> 02:21:52,910 that I felt what as important as that 3170 02:21:59,170 --> 02:21:57,830 issue would be it's a transcendent 3171 02:22:01,960 --> 02:21:59,180 importance if we're alone in the 3172 02:22:04,540 --> 02:22:01,970 universe or not and and if not to what 3173 02:22:06,580 --> 02:22:04,550 extent you know it's something that is 3174 02:22:08,051 --> 02:22:06,590 now taken very very seriously by people 3175 02:22:09,280 --> 02:22:08,061 who think about the long-term future of 3176 02:22:11,920 --> 02:22:09,290 humanity it's something where there's 3177 02:22:14,560 --> 02:22:11,930 there is a methodology that's been 3178 02:22:17,290 --> 02:22:14,570 composed you know by militaries and by 3179 02:22:18,850 --> 02:22:17,300 you know social scientists and by it 3180 02:22:20,591 --> 02:22:18,860 looks like a Brooking institution as you 3181 02:22:22,450 --> 02:22:20,601 probably know right it's something it's 3182 02:22:24,280 --> 02:22:22,460 been thought about and because and I 3183 02:22:27,100 --> 02:22:24,290 also what interests me most about it is 3184 02:22:30,100 --> 02:22:27,110 I I like anything in which there is a 3185 02:22:34,780 --> 02:22:30,110 fundamental dispute I like I like to 3186 02:22:37,091 --> 02:22:34,790 figure out why some people are adverse 3187 02:22:39,220 --> 02:22:37,101 to certain kinds of theories why they're 3188 02:22:40,720 --> 02:22:39,230 just automatically adverse to it how 3189 02:22:42,160 --> 02:22:40,730 they came to that position whether or 3190 02:22:44,980 --> 02:22:42,170 not it's valid now in the cases of 3191 02:22:48,670 --> 02:22:44,990 people who for some reason are just 3192 02:22:50,980 --> 02:22:48,680 violently violently pronounced words are 3193 02:22:54,341 --> 02:22:50,990 very much opposed to you know the idea 3194 02:22:56,620 --> 02:22:54,351 of UFOs I've tuned I've tend to found 3195 02:22:58,690 --> 02:22:56,630 find that it seems to just emerge from 3196 02:23:00,400 --> 02:22:58,700 this this thing's they picked up sort of 3197 02:23:02,080 --> 02:23:00,410 vague ideas that it just they associate 3198 02:23:03,610 --> 02:23:02,090 something with something silly and then 3199 02:23:04,960 --> 02:23:03,620 they just ride it off and that's that 3200 02:23:08,170 --> 02:23:04,970 something actually applies very much to 3201 02:23:09,670 --> 02:23:08,180 what I do you know it's easier now it's 3202 02:23:12,310 --> 02:23:09,680 hard to remember how much more difficult 3203 02:23:14,890 --> 02:23:12,320 it was 2010 to talk about large 3204 02:23:17,980 --> 02:23:14,900 government apparatuses that can that can 3205 02:23:20,020 --> 02:23:17,990 put out propaganda in very advanced ways 3206 02:23:21,310 --> 02:23:20,030 but luckily when we started cracking 3207 02:23:23,801 --> 02:23:21,320 open things like persona management's 3208 02:23:25,330 --> 02:23:23,811 and and now given that everyone is very 3209 02:23:27,011 --> 02:23:25,340 worried about BOTS which which are very 3210 02:23:28,150 --> 02:23:27,021 simple sort of blunt versions of persona 3211 02:23:29,470 --> 02:23:28,160 management's which is a very 3212 02:23:32,801 --> 02:23:29,480 sophisticated way of running as people 3213 02:23:35,230 --> 02:23:32,811 you know we're now I think it's easier 3214 02:23:36,490 --> 02:23:35,240 to not just make the case reasonably but 3215 02:23:39,970 --> 02:23:36,500 to make the case and where people will 3216 02:23:41,980 --> 02:23:39,980 accept that you are never well sir 3217 02:23:44,680 --> 02:23:41,990 by assuming that you know a great deal 3218 02:23:47,830 --> 02:23:44,690 that a specialist subject and so people 3219 02:23:49,421 --> 02:23:47,840 who do the actual legwork and the 3220 02:23:52,450 --> 02:23:49,431 research and all that and have informed 3221 02:23:53,770 --> 02:23:52,460 opinions across the board those are the 3222 02:23:54,220 --> 02:23:53,780 people I always respect and want to work 3223 02:23:56,320 --> 02:23:54,230 with 3224 02:23:57,910 --> 02:23:56,330 regardless of what those beliefs might 3225 02:24:01,060 --> 02:23:57,920 be if they can defend them now I read a 3226 02:24:04,091 --> 02:24:01,070 book by Jack Jacques ballet originally 3227 02:24:07,631 --> 02:24:04,101 oh yeah yep again like I'm very 3228 02:24:10,690 --> 02:24:07,641 interested in you know what you might 3229 02:24:12,970 --> 02:24:10,700 call the the psychology of thought I 3230 02:24:14,591 --> 02:24:12,980 mean I hope it's a bad term the I meant 3231 02:24:16,000 --> 02:24:14,601 I'm interested again and how people come 3232 02:24:19,720 --> 02:24:16,010 to the conclusions they do and I'm also 3233 02:24:24,190 --> 02:24:19,730 interested in very unusual answers to 3234 02:24:26,680 --> 02:24:24,200 these questions and so not being hugely 3235 02:24:28,421 --> 02:24:26,690 familiar with the UFO literature I found 3236 02:24:31,301 --> 02:24:28,431 was a very interesting take you know 3237 02:24:34,480 --> 02:24:31,311 that sort of it was ultimately a 3238 02:24:36,990 --> 02:24:34,490 agnostic take but it was had very 3239 02:24:39,370 --> 02:24:37,000 interesting two things to say about the 3240 02:24:40,720 --> 02:24:39,380 intelligence community and the some of 3241 02:24:43,360 --> 02:24:40,730 the organizations that back in the 60s 3242 02:24:45,850 --> 02:24:43,370 and 70s were proliferating some which 3243 02:24:49,301 --> 02:24:45,860 were very bizarre and why they might 3244 02:24:52,301 --> 02:24:49,311 exist and beyond so there's there's 3245 02:24:53,680 --> 02:24:52,311 plenty there that if I had more time I 3246 02:24:56,440 --> 02:24:53,690 would explore further 3247 02:24:58,091 --> 02:24:56,450 I've just been occupied with you know 3248 02:25:00,400 --> 02:24:58,101 dealing with the government on earth and 3249 02:25:03,910 --> 02:25:00,410 and I I totally agree with you because 3250 02:25:06,671 --> 02:25:03,920 like for me you know I'm only 36 and I 3251 02:25:09,400 --> 02:25:06,681 think but when I was younger like my my 3252 02:25:12,970 --> 02:25:09,410 dad was involved with underground BBS's 3253 02:25:16,900 --> 02:25:12,980 and you know just just kind of 3254 02:25:18,190 --> 02:25:16,910 underground computing in the very 3255 02:25:20,710 --> 02:25:18,200 beginning I mean he still writes 3256 02:25:24,100 --> 02:25:20,720 programs to this day but my mom at the 3257 02:25:27,400 --> 02:25:24,110 time worked for the DoD in finances and 3258 02:25:29,470 --> 02:25:27,410 although it was like she was giving she 3259 02:25:31,841 --> 02:25:29,480 was coming home and confiding in him 3260 02:25:34,390 --> 02:25:31,851 these things she was learning she worked 3261 02:25:36,160 --> 02:25:34,400 under Dick Cheney and she was learning 3262 02:25:39,220 --> 02:25:36,170 all these things and seeing all these 3263 02:25:40,841 --> 02:25:39,230 these all the things going on that she 3264 02:25:43,720 --> 02:25:40,851 was just you know you know told the 3265 02:25:45,881 --> 02:25:43,730 process and passed forward whereas my 3266 02:25:47,801 --> 02:25:45,891 dad who was that logical you know 3267 02:25:50,381 --> 02:25:47,811 analytical deep thinker was like well 3268 02:25:52,060 --> 02:25:50,391 what why is it like this why are they 3269 02:25:53,469 --> 02:25:52,070 doing this how does how does this work 3270 02:25:55,029 --> 02:25:53,479 you know I mean all 3271 02:25:57,849 --> 02:25:55,039 these things are coming together so 3272 02:26:00,429 --> 02:25:57,859 strangely so his brain goes on this path 3273 02:26:03,309 --> 02:26:00,439 where he can't believe what's happening 3274 02:26:05,710 --> 02:26:03,319 and how it's going this way and my mom 3275 02:26:07,229 --> 02:26:05,720 you know is more of a spiritual kind of 3276 02:26:09,880 --> 02:26:07,239 you know who got me into 3277 02:26:11,469 --> 02:26:09,890 extraterrestrial and spirituality and 3278 02:26:14,319 --> 02:26:11,479 kind of digging deeper into what's 3279 02:26:16,929 --> 02:26:14,329 actually real and the - you know have 3280 02:26:19,779 --> 02:26:16,939 been like you know a racing path for me 3281 02:26:22,359 --> 02:26:19,789 because at times I'm more interested in 3282 02:26:24,399 --> 02:26:22,369 in what information is being hidden from 3283 02:26:26,679 --> 02:26:24,409 us from just you know like like your 3284 02:26:29,979 --> 02:26:26,689 side of the fence because that that is 3285 02:26:32,439 --> 02:26:29,989 like it's like you said it's it's easier 3286 02:26:34,750 --> 02:26:32,449 to grasp and easier to hold and for some 3287 02:26:36,969 --> 02:26:34,760 of us who are only focused on ufology 3288 02:26:38,500 --> 02:26:36,979 like that other side of it is just as 3289 02:26:40,090 --> 02:26:38,510 important and you have to understand it 3290 02:26:42,580 --> 02:26:40,100 because it's like Jimmy said where if 3291 02:26:44,410 --> 02:26:42,590 those kind of subjects come up and we 3292 02:26:46,510 --> 02:26:44,420 just storm off because we don't want to 3293 02:26:50,219 --> 02:26:46,520 hear that there's a deep state then 3294 02:26:52,269 --> 02:26:50,229 we're we're totally missing the the 3295 02:26:54,099 --> 02:26:52,279 connections between all these pieces 3296 02:26:56,559 --> 02:26:54,109 because all of them are going to come 3297 02:26:58,929 --> 02:26:56,569 together and I feel and I wonder how you 3298 02:27:00,550 --> 02:26:58,939 feel that it is do you think all these 3299 02:27:02,679 --> 02:27:00,560 pieces once they come together are going 3300 02:27:05,649 --> 02:27:02,689 to break down this quote/unquote wall 3301 02:27:07,359 --> 02:27:05,659 and allow us to have the freedom that we 3302 02:27:12,160 --> 02:27:07,369 should have in this country that kind of 3303 02:27:15,250 --> 02:27:12,170 you know started as I can I would 3304 02:27:20,189 --> 02:27:15,260 actually be surprised if a major 3305 02:27:23,830 --> 02:27:20,199 revelation regarding UFOs led to a 3306 02:27:26,620 --> 02:27:23,840 comprehensive improved you know free or 3307 02:27:27,849 --> 02:27:26,630 better world I can see that the I think 3308 02:27:29,529 --> 02:27:27,859 the Brookings Institution back when they 3309 02:27:31,090 --> 02:27:29,539 first are looking at the issue and other 3310 02:27:33,219 --> 02:27:31,100 other groups that have had policy also 3311 02:27:35,290 --> 02:27:33,229 on UFOs for a long time 3312 02:27:36,399 --> 02:27:35,300 I think they that's their conclusion and 3313 02:27:37,960 --> 02:27:36,409 they it could be wrong and then of 3314 02:27:40,750 --> 02:27:37,970 course that that presumably would be the 3315 02:27:42,399 --> 02:27:40,760 reason for having a UFO policy in the 3316 02:27:44,500 --> 02:27:42,409 first place is look is there's this huge 3317 02:27:47,679 --> 02:27:44,510 thing that's going to happen how would 3318 02:27:50,500 --> 02:27:47,689 that change people and you know no think 3319 02:27:51,340 --> 02:27:50,510 tank is prescience they can make they 3320 02:27:55,029 --> 02:27:51,350 can make predictions about the future 3321 02:27:56,469 --> 02:27:55,039 about human psychology in some cases 3322 02:27:58,479 --> 02:27:56,479 they have access to more data than we do 3323 02:28:00,460 --> 02:27:58,489 in part because they have you know all 3324 02:28:01,989 --> 02:28:00,470 kinds of bizarre unethical you know 3325 02:28:04,090 --> 02:28:01,999 history whether the CIA and of the 3326 02:28:06,099 --> 02:28:04,100 Japanese war criminals that we captured 3327 02:28:06,980 --> 02:28:06,109 and learn from the Nazis as well they 3328 02:28:08,720 --> 02:28:06,990 didn't have a larger 3329 02:28:10,280 --> 02:28:08,730 knowledge to decide how people were 3330 02:28:11,841 --> 02:28:10,290 gonna react to different things we also 3331 02:28:15,830 --> 02:28:11,851 have of course you know that one of the 3332 02:28:18,410 --> 02:28:15,840 world's incidents so so I can't say I'm 3333 02:28:21,410 --> 02:28:18,420 an optimist about and again I'm I am 3334 02:28:22,761 --> 02:28:21,420 agnostic on most of the issues I will 3335 02:28:24,290 --> 02:28:22,771 tell you that the very fact that there 3336 02:28:25,820 --> 02:28:24,300 is a UFO policy and the fact that 3337 02:28:28,190 --> 02:28:25,830 Brookings Institution was writing these 3338 02:28:30,470 --> 02:28:28,200 documents about these things that is 3339 02:28:33,980 --> 02:28:30,480 something that any journalist who just 3340 02:28:35,930 --> 02:28:33,990 last is as though UFOs is a fool that is 3341 02:28:37,610 --> 02:28:35,940 is ultimately is immediately your job to 3342 02:28:40,881 --> 02:28:37,620 look in in to why that's the case 3343 02:28:44,750 --> 02:28:40,891 doesn't matter if UFOs exist or not it 3344 02:28:46,580 --> 02:28:44,760 is a part of the human psychology and to 3345 02:28:49,790 --> 02:28:46,590 the extent that's true it can be 3346 02:28:51,110 --> 02:28:49,800 leveraged by bad actors beyond that 3347 02:28:52,881 --> 02:28:51,120 obviously to the extent that it is true 3348 02:28:54,860 --> 02:28:52,891 and I agree with Jacquie valet that 3349 02:28:56,480 --> 02:28:54,870 there is some phenomenon that maybe 3350 02:28:58,190 --> 02:28:56,490 immaterial may not be a physical 3351 02:29:00,530 --> 02:28:58,200 phenomenon or it could be some 3352 02:29:03,020 --> 02:29:00,540 combination of things but uh to the 3353 02:29:05,120 --> 02:29:03,030 extent that that is the case included to 3354 02:29:06,980 --> 02:29:05,130 the extent that obviously there's plenty 3355 02:29:10,640 --> 02:29:06,990 of scientists who do not oppose the idea 3356 02:29:13,220 --> 02:29:10,650 of you know either extra dimensional 3357 02:29:15,230 --> 02:29:13,230 beings or you know sort of physical you 3358 02:29:18,980 --> 02:29:15,240 know old-school aliens of the popular 3359 02:29:22,160 --> 02:29:18,990 imagination it's it's it's a crime 3360 02:29:24,650 --> 02:29:22,170 against against the human intellect and 3361 02:29:27,051 --> 02:29:24,660 against our progress forward to to use 3362 02:29:29,660 --> 02:29:27,061 arguments from absurdity and sort of 3363 02:29:30,921 --> 02:29:29,670 scoff at things without having fully 3364 02:29:33,980 --> 02:29:30,931 investigated and unfortunately it's a 3365 02:29:36,410 --> 02:29:33,990 very widespread crime if it is true if 3366 02:29:38,511 --> 02:29:36,420 it were true that there was for instance 3367 02:29:40,131 --> 02:29:38,521 a secret alien government we would never 3368 02:29:41,480 --> 02:29:40,141 know about it because how do you how do 3369 02:29:42,801 --> 02:29:41,490 you begin the process of getting an 3370 02:29:44,540 --> 02:29:42,811 editor a producer to listen to that I 3371 02:29:45,620 --> 02:29:44,550 came and get them for the most part to 3372 02:29:46,820 --> 02:29:45,630 acknowledge things that I've already 3373 02:29:47,720 --> 02:29:46,830 written about elsewhere because they 3374 02:29:49,250 --> 02:29:47,730 don't think they don't believe them if 3375 02:29:51,860 --> 02:29:49,260 they haven't seen them picked up by 3376 02:29:53,211 --> 02:29:51,870 other outlets they're just a lot of 3377 02:29:54,711 --> 02:29:53,221 there's a lot of heuristics involved 3378 02:29:56,511 --> 02:29:54,721 there's a lot of just poor logic 3379 02:29:58,970 --> 02:29:56,521 involved in the way in which we respond 3380 02:30:01,610 --> 02:29:58,980 to things and that's one of those things 3381 02:30:02,290 --> 02:30:01,620 that I don't see being fixed anytime 3382 02:30:04,430 --> 02:30:02,300 soon 3383 02:30:06,551 --> 02:30:04,440 Gabriel thank you for the phone call my 3384 02:30:08,930 --> 02:30:06,561 friend enjoyed the rest of your weekend 3385

to hang on for 3388 02:30:19,700 --> 02:30:16,710 ten minutes or do a little overtime sure 3389 02:30:20,330 --> 02:30:19,710 I'm not I'm not finished tonight but I 3390 02:30:24,349 --> 02:30:20,340 want 3391 02:30:26,960 --> 02:30:24,359 to go back and actually finish your 3392 02:30:28,639 --> 02:30:26,970 thought there which is this you said 3393 02:30:32,270 --> 02:30:28,649 something that I think it's critical if 3394 02:30:36,440 --> 02:30:32,280 you went to your news director or your 3395 02:30:38,900 --> 02:30:36,450 editor and said like if you're sick for 3396 02:30:40,849 --> 02:30:38,910 this Vanity Fair write HuffPost you 3397 02:30:42,020 --> 02:30:40,859 might get away with it but if you you 3398 02:30:45,290 --> 02:30:42,030 know you went to them and said hey you 3399 02:30:47,630 --> 02:30:45,300 know I got this serious piece here about 3400 02:30:49,820 --> 02:30:47,640 UFOs and abduction or a sighting that 3401 02:30:52,010 --> 02:30:49,830 happened and and I've got this in the 3402 02:30:54,650 --> 02:30:52,020 you know can I move forward with this 3403 02:30:56,599 --> 02:30:54,660 can I go out and and start to talk to 3404 02:30:59,570 --> 02:30:56,609 these these people and these witnesses 3405 02:31:01,610 --> 02:30:59,580 would you even would you even have that 3406 02:31:04,070 --> 02:31:01,620 conversation with the auditor I mean 3407 02:31:05,690 --> 02:31:04,080 where would that go I can tell you their 3408 02:31:07,750 --> 02:31:05,700 conversations with my editors that I've 3409 02:31:10,880 --> 02:31:07,760 had and that resulted to me quitting 3410 02:31:12,469 --> 02:31:10,890 eventually over those kind of things in 3411 02:31:13,880 --> 02:31:12,479 one case you know I was asking to write 3412 02:31:15,590 --> 02:31:13,890 about something that I had already 3413 02:31:18,110 --> 02:31:15,600 written about before this is row Moscow 3414 02:31:21,710 --> 02:31:18,120 it was this large apparatus that the US 3415 02:31:22,910 --> 02:31:21,720 government uses sort of propaganda and 3416 02:31:23,900 --> 02:31:22,920 surveillance thing it's sort of too 3417 02:31:25,790 --> 02:31:23,910 complex for us to get our head around 3418 02:31:27,889 --> 02:31:25,800 but it involves all these aspects that 3419 02:31:29,810 --> 02:31:27,899 we can point out like everything from 3420 02:31:31,820 --> 02:31:29,820 natural linguistics processing to cell 3421 02:31:33,889 --> 02:31:31,830 phone games it was a very strange deal I 3422 02:31:35,660 --> 02:31:33,899 wrote about it eventually for the 3423 02:31:37,340 --> 02:31:35,670 Guardian and put out a piece on our 3424 02:31:41,300 --> 02:31:37,350 website back in the project PM days and 3425 02:31:44,360 --> 02:31:41,310 more recently max Blumenthal has 3426 02:31:45,950 --> 02:31:44,370 referenced that because there was one 3427 02:31:47,420 --> 02:31:45,960 aspect of it that this editor could not 3428 02:31:51,230 --> 02:31:47,430 get his head around and that was that 3429 02:31:53,330 --> 02:31:51,240 Apple and Google had both met with aaron 3430 02:31:54,860 --> 02:31:53,340 barr and these these companies HBGary 3431 02:31:56,389 --> 02:31:54,870 the ones that we investigated originally 3432 02:31:58,910 --> 02:31:56,399 the one driving this team thema scandal 3433 02:32:01,160 --> 02:31:58,920 they met with them and some larger 3434 02:32:03,530 --> 02:32:01,170 companies to work on this recompete 3435 02:32:06,050 --> 02:32:03,540 contract for this big apparatus now this 3436 02:32:08,000 --> 02:32:06,060 is something we know this the emails on 3437 02:32:09,980 --> 02:32:08,010 this can come from the same place the 3438 02:32:11,690 --> 02:32:09,990 emails came on all these other things 3439 02:32:13,130 --> 02:32:11,700 that work that were a big news on him 3440 02:32:14,660 --> 02:32:13,140 for a month after we discovered then the 3441 02:32:18,139 --> 02:32:14,670 whole team themelis thing going after 3442 02:32:19,280 --> 02:32:18,149 journalists blah blah blah but first and 3443 02:32:22,520 --> 02:32:19,290 we had the emails I could point to him 3444 02:32:24,770 --> 02:32:22,530 but for some reason this editor who had 3445 02:32:27,500 --> 02:32:24,780 been an editor at major publications for 3446 02:32:28,969 --> 02:32:27,510 quite a while he just didn't think it 3447 02:32:30,620 --> 02:32:28,979 would be the case and he started 3448 02:32:34,189 --> 02:32:30,630 lecturing me on how I've misunderstood 3449 02:32:38,239 --> 02:32:34,199 something and so I can't even imagine 3450 02:32:41,269 --> 02:32:38,249 uh you know if a UFO crashed in the 3451 02:32:43,699 --> 02:32:41,279 backyard of where I'm at right now I'd 3452 02:32:45,709 --> 02:32:43,709 probably just you know I might take some 3453 02:32:47,840 --> 02:32:45,719 pictures but I wouldn't send I wouldn't 3454 02:32:49,340 --> 02:32:47,850 send them to you I hate the 3455 02:32:50,749 --> 02:32:49,350 publication's arrived for luckily I'm a 3456 02:32:53,209 --> 02:32:50,759 freelance very much anymore I've got the 3457 02:32:54,349 --> 02:32:53,219 book coming out and all that so I you 3458 02:33:00,139 --> 02:32:54,359 know I'm getting out of that whole thing 3459 02:33:01,039 --> 02:33:00,149 because trying to convince an editor of 3460 02:33:02,239 --> 02:33:01,049 something he doesn't want to be 3461 02:33:04,369 --> 02:33:02,249 convinced of well it's something that 3462 02:33:06,079 --> 02:33:04,379 that sort of goes against his idea that 3463 02:33:07,459 --> 02:33:06,089 the press has things under control you 3464 02:33:09,050 --> 02:33:07,469 know a lot of people don't reason they 3465 02:33:11,029 --> 02:33:09,060 don't believe that JFK could have been 3466 02:33:13,249 --> 02:33:11,039 assassinated by a conspiracy involving 3467 02:33:15,590 --> 02:33:13,259 CIA elements is because they they have 3468 02:33:17,420 --> 02:33:15,600 that much faith in the press that they 3469 02:33:19,550 --> 02:33:17,430 would have gotten it right and that's a 3470 02:33:22,219 --> 02:33:19,560 big part of why it's very difficult to 3471 02:33:24,769 --> 02:33:22,229 deal with anything that for some reason 3472 02:33:25,699 --> 02:33:24,779 even has the the aura of being a 3473 02:33:30,529 --> 02:33:25,709 conspiracy theory 3474 02:33:32,479 --> 02:33:30,539 vastly misused as if as if conspiracies 3475 02:33:34,939 --> 02:33:32,489 were not something or some supernatural 3476 02:33:38,539 --> 02:33:34,949 thing that we can that we in hotel can't 3477 02:33:41,119 --> 02:33:38,549 prove the do Jake charges hundreds of 3478 02:33:45,469 --> 02:33:41,129 people with conspiracies every every 3479 02:33:46,849 --> 02:33:45,479 month you know it this opens up other 3480 02:33:49,340 --> 02:33:46,859 other topics you know just about how we 3481 02:33:51,469 --> 02:33:49,350 think about a secret secrecy and how we 3482 02:33:54,079 --> 02:33:51,479 think about the possibilities inherent 3483 02:33:56,269 --> 02:33:54,089 to humanity but this is this is where it 3484 02:33:59,559 --> 02:33:56,279 were a race that you know thousands of 3485 02:34:02,239 --> 02:33:59,569 years ago throughout much the world 3486 02:34:05,479 --> 02:34:02,249 convinced people to build pyramids in 3487 02:34:10,039 --> 02:34:05,489 honor of their godhood there's you know 3488 02:34:12,380 --> 02:34:10,049 that there is a great vast potential of 3489 02:34:14,599 --> 02:34:12,390 human experience and of human folly and 3490 02:34:16,749 --> 02:34:14,609 we have records of a great deal of it 3491 02:34:18,920 --> 02:34:16,759 some of some very recent unfortunately 3492 02:34:22,429 --> 02:34:18,930 it would be it would be foolish for 3493 02:34:24,709 --> 02:34:22,439 anyone to ever really set forth to 3494 02:34:30,199 --> 02:34:24,719 really hold on to a concrete view of 3495 02:34:31,609 --> 02:34:30,209 life and of reality and that's what 3496 02:34:33,619 --> 02:34:31,619 people have done for thousands of years 3497 02:34:35,630 --> 02:34:33,629 and we look back at them and now we see 3498 02:34:37,010 --> 02:34:35,640 that wrong we think they're wrong that's 3499 02:34:38,269 --> 02:34:37,020 right and we don't take this we don't 3500 02:34:40,659 --> 02:34:38,279 take the same lesson to heart so that's 3501 02:34:42,679 --> 02:34:40,669 you know that's a huge problem that 3502 02:34:44,809 --> 02:34:42,689 informs lots of other little little 3503 02:34:47,309 --> 02:34:44,819 problems as well well it's easier to 3504 02:34:49,290 --> 02:34:47,319 just take the easy road 3505 02:34:51,300 --> 02:34:49,300 right yeah there's a practice a 3506 02:34:52,679 --> 02:34:51,310 practical matter no journalist wants to 3507 02:34:55,439 --> 02:34:52,689 even if a journalist is convinced that 3508 02:34:58,429 --> 02:34:55,449 there is something that is involve 3509 02:35:02,609 --> 02:34:58,439 importance that he can probably prove 3510 02:35:04,649 --> 02:35:02,619 via documents yes to ask the question 3511 02:35:07,019 --> 02:35:04,659 will anyone pay attention well even get 3512 02:35:09,389 --> 02:35:07,029 this past an editor and in the process 3513 02:35:11,040 --> 02:35:09,399 will I destroy my ability to do other 3514 02:35:13,559 --> 02:35:11,050 stories that's right and that's that's 3515 02:35:15,929 --> 02:35:13,569 that's absolutely the main thing then 3516 02:35:18,630 --> 02:35:15,939 there is there is less need in there 3517 02:35:21,139 --> 02:35:18,640 then we would hope in an ideal world for 3518 02:35:23,460 --> 02:35:21,149 the kind of censorship apparatus that uh 3519 02:35:25,170 --> 02:35:23,470 you know some people think we have a lot 3520 02:35:28,109 --> 02:35:25,180 of it is automatics a lot of it itself 3521 02:35:30,090 --> 02:35:28,119 is done by the failures of of that 3522 02:35:31,529 --> 02:35:30,100 industry a lot of it is done 3523 02:35:32,819 --> 02:35:31,539 person-to-person 3524 02:35:35,069 --> 02:35:32,829 it's the failures that occur when people 3525 02:35:36,540 --> 02:35:35,079 don't think properly let's take a break 3526 02:35:38,340 --> 02:35:36,550 right here and then I'm gonna I'm gonna 3527 02:35:40,500 --> 02:35:38,350 hold you over for about ten more minutes 3528 02:35:41,429 --> 02:35:40,510 okay

and certainly you've got a a 3627 02:40:46,469 --> 02:40:45,160 good fundamental foundation here and I 3628 02:40:49,320 --> 02:40:46,479 think that's great when we're talking 3629 02:40:51,600 --> 02:40:49,330 about UFOs but you're also a journalist 3630 02:40:57,510 --> 02:40:51,610 and you monitor what the mass media is 3631 02:41:02,940 --> 02:40:57,520 doing back in December 16th of 2017 3632 02:41:04,980 --> 02:41:02,950 the New York Times released this UFO 3633 02:41:08,130 --> 02:41:04,990 information about the Pentagon having a 3634 02:41:11,790 --> 02:41:08,140 secret program some videos were released 3635 02:41:15,120 --> 02:41:11,800 a pilot had come forward and so forth 3636 02:41:17,040 --> 02:41:15,130 and that spun out of control and we had 3637 02:41:20,340 --> 02:41:17,050 about two or three months I'm sure you 3638 02:41:22,320 --> 02:41:20,350 saw all of it of constant media coverage 3639 02:41:25,320 --> 02:41:22,330 of the UFO subject for the first time 3640 02:41:27,560 --> 02:41:25,330 ever in the history of of this country 3641 02:41:31,320 --> 02:41:27,570 it's never been covered like that before 3642 02:41:34,920 --> 02:41:31,330 two things came out of that one was the 3643 02:41:38,639 --> 02:41:34,930 coverage but the second part was the 3644 02:41:41,670 --> 02:41:38,649 mass media suddenly whether it was print 3645 02:41:45,690 --> 02:41:41,680 online or television was suddenly 3646 02:41:47,940 --> 02:41:45,700 comfortable with with the subject what 3647 02:41:51,480 --> 02:41:47,950 what did you think about that as you saw 3648 02:41:55,440 --> 02:41:51,490 this front-page news of UFOs for the 3649 02:41:57,290 --> 02:41:55,450 first time my experience with both being 3650 02:41:59,969 --> 02:41:57,300 a subject of the press and being a 3651 02:42:01,710 --> 02:41:59,979 journalist and a press critic who pays 3652 02:42:05,280 --> 02:42:01,720 special attention to journalism is 3653 02:42:07,560 --> 02:42:05,290 generally that a lot of the things that 3654 02:42:12,620 --> 02:42:07,570 go down are very much the complex 3655 02:42:14,820 --> 02:42:12,630 results of personal ambition career ism 3656 02:42:20,580 --> 02:42:14,830 heuristics you know just the poor 3657 02:42:23,460 --> 02:42:20,590 thinking money and ideology but a mixed 3658 02:42:25,200 --> 02:42:23,470 in in all different amounts the various 3659 02:42:26,670 --> 02:42:25,210 primality outlets there is also of 3660 02:42:30,240 --> 02:42:26,680 course historically a degree of 3661 02:42:32,070 --> 02:42:30,250 infiltration by intelligence communities 3662 02:42:33,990 --> 02:42:32,080 of the u.s. press and that was I think I 3663 02:42:35,760 --> 02:42:34,000 did probably that's a peak in the later 3664 02:42:38,550 --> 02:42:35,770 end of the Cold War or the 60s and 70s 3665 02:42:40,590 --> 02:42:38,560 when you know you had Reuters you know 3666 02:42:42,599 --> 02:42:40,600 Washington Post Time magazine was you 3667 02:42:44,429 --> 02:42:42,609 know voluntarily sort of in the service 3668 02:42:49,469 --> 02:42:44,439 of the CIA Henry Luce you know was you 3669 02:42:50,910 --> 02:42:49,479 know having said that right now so I 3670 02:42:52,559 --> 02:42:50,920 read that article when it came out 3671 02:42:54,450 --> 02:42:52,569 and I was obviously interested to see 3672 02:42:57,479 --> 02:42:54,460 what would come of it from the press and 3673 02:43:00,240 --> 02:42:57,489 I didn't I didn't pay enough attention 3674 02:43:04,139 --> 02:43:00,250 to know to see how much coverage there 3675 02:43:07,110 --> 02:43:04,149 was in the aftermath I did find it very 3676 02:43:10,380 --> 02:43:07,120 telling and unsurprising that there was 3677 02:43:13,530 --> 02:43:10,390 a mention in that article of this alien 3678 02:43:16,710 --> 02:43:13,540 alloy that was being held in a building 3679 02:43:18,210 --> 02:43:16,720 I guess in New Mexico blowing that was 3680 02:43:22,320 --> 02:43:18,220 sort of noted in passing and they're not 3681 02:43:23,880 --> 02:43:22,330 really dwelled upon right and so there's 3682 02:43:26,610 --> 02:43:23,890 a number of frameworks that can fall 3683 02:43:29,400 --> 02:43:26,620 under this we can explain this as my my 3684 02:43:32,880 --> 02:43:29,410 framework for this is that for some 3685 02:43:35,969 --> 02:43:32,890 reason or another you know these figures 3686 02:43:37,260 --> 02:43:35,979 around that project which he is my 3687 02:43:38,580 --> 02:43:37,270 understanding includes some people who 3688 02:43:40,740 --> 02:43:38,590 are basically private citizens who were 3689 02:43:43,620 --> 02:43:40,750 always in UFO ology and have now been 3690 02:43:51,300 --> 02:43:43,630 approached and asked to sort of I guess 3691 02:43:54,389 --> 02:43:51,310 oversee this this media initiative and 3692 02:43:56,040 --> 02:43:54,399 add beyond that bond that my my interest 3693 02:43:58,170 --> 02:43:56,050 has mostly been in how the press takes 3694 02:44:01,410 --> 02:43:58,180 it in the press you know I don't think 3695 02:44:02,910 --> 02:44:01,420 did a great job of you know running with 3696 02:44:04,679 --> 02:44:02,920 the questions here like what's the deal 3697 02:44:05,939 --> 02:44:04,689 with that alien alloy that would have 3698 02:44:06,929 --> 02:44:05,949 been my first question like hey you just 3699 02:44:08,729 --> 02:44:06,939 said there's an alien arrow in this 3700 02:44:11,280 --> 02:44:08,739 building that's kind of a huge deal 3701 02:44:13,679 --> 02:44:11,290 which has been sort of buried the lead I 3702 02:44:16,260 --> 02:44:13,689 don't think the people who wrote that 3703 02:44:17,580 --> 02:44:16,270 article I do not think they were working 3704 02:44:18,420 --> 02:44:17,590 in accordance with some plan it's 3705 02:44:21,420 --> 02:44:18,430 possible they were being given 3706 02:44:23,790 --> 02:44:21,430 information by people who were I can say 3707 02:44:25,760 --> 02:44:23,800 that if someone does an article the New 3708 02:44:30,330 --> 02:44:25,770 York Times about something like UFOs 3709 02:44:31,410 --> 02:44:30,340 it's something that the editors then 3710 02:44:35,070 --> 02:44:31,420 doesn't listen necessarily occur 3711 02:44:36,719 --> 02:44:35,080 encourage them to do but it's on you 3712 02:44:38,849 --> 02:44:36,729 it's unusual obviously I'm not saying 3713 02:44:40,920 --> 02:44:38,859 anything surprising there but it's it I 3714 02:44:44,030 --> 02:44:40,930 wonder if the dynamics there at the New 3715 02:44:48,450 --> 02:44:44,040 York Times and how this came about 3716 02:44:50,070 --> 02:44:48,460 beyond that really I'm very much I'm not 3717 02:44:51,421 --> 02:44:50,080 sure if non-plus as director I've never 3718 02:44:54,660 --> 02:44:51,431 really figured out what nonplussed means 3719 02:44:57,570 --> 02:44:54,670 I am I am I am confused about the 3720 02:45:01,140 --> 02:44:57,580 situation and there's and then there's 3721 02:45:03,360 --> 02:45:01,150 the other side of the issue which is in 3722 02:45:07,470 --> 02:45:03,370 you brought up the Brookings Institute 3723 02:45:09,150 --> 02:45:07,480 and the other reports that were done by 3724 02:45:13,801 --> 02:45:09,160 different agencies leading up to this 3725 02:45:15,240 --> 02:45:13,811 that once this was exposed like the New 3726 02:45:18,060 --> 02:45:15,250 York Times stated then it was you know 3727 02:45:21,180 --> 02:45:18,070 CNN and Fox and BBC and everybody 3728 02:45:24,360 --> 02:45:21,190 running with the story that religions 3729 02:45:26,251 --> 02:45:24,370 didn't collapse right Wall Street didn't 3730 02:45:30,330 --> 02:45:26,261 thought there wasn't pandemonium or 3731 02:45:33,600 --> 02:45:30,340 Anarchy or civil unrest that part it 3732 02:45:36,030 --> 02:45:33,610 seemed to just just kind of blow by 3733 02:45:39,660 --> 02:45:36,040 everybody and there wasn't this this 3734 02:45:42,150 --> 02:45:39,670 crazy reaction that others had suggested 3735 02:45:44,430 --> 02:45:42,160 would happen once it was exposed like it 3736 02:45:45,900 --> 02:45:44,440 was part of that has to do with how 3737 02:45:47,730 --> 02:45:45,910 bizarre things are already without 3738 02:45:50,041 --> 02:45:47,740 bringing UFOs in this thing there's 3739 02:45:52,110 --> 02:45:50,051 always there's a blanket of unusual 3740 02:45:55,080 --> 02:45:52,120 things going on that probably muffled it 3741 02:46:00,560 --> 02:45:55,090 a little bit but but undoubtedly that's 3742 02:46:03,961 --> 02:46:00,570 also because you know a limited 3743 02:46:06,930 --> 02:46:03,971 disclosure like that regardless of the 3744 02:46:09,841 --> 02:46:06,940 truth behind it that is something that 3745 02:46:12,330 --> 02:46:09,851 people can easily accommodate into their 3746 02:46:14,341 --> 02:46:12,340 worldview the people who believe that 3747 02:46:16,830 --> 02:46:14,351 UFOs definitely do not exist and that 3748 02:46:17,940 --> 02:46:16,840 they're you know just or whatever they 3749 02:46:19,711 --> 02:46:17,950 had nope don't have no problem with that 3750 02:46:21,751 --> 02:46:19,721 they'll say oh this is some crazy kooky 3751 02:46:23,730 --> 02:46:21,761 guys and they're just there's nothing to 3752 02:46:26,400 --> 02:46:23,740 it they'll say that the ones who are 3753 02:46:29,400 --> 02:46:26,410 very very fundamentalist religious 3754 02:46:30,930 --> 02:46:29,410 religious beliefs around the world will 3755 02:46:32,490 --> 02:46:30,940 incorporate it very quickly and easily 3756 02:46:33,660 --> 02:46:32,500 into their worldview just as the 3757 02:46:37,410 --> 02:46:33,670 Catholic Church has done for thousands 3758 02:46:38,671 --> 02:46:37,420 of years when they've needed to you know 3759 02:46:41,100 --> 02:46:38,681 the fact of the matter is that we at we 3760 02:46:46,680 --> 02:46:41,110 are PR these conscious beings that exist 3761 02:46:48,450 --> 02:46:46,690 in this in this incomparable situation 3762 02:46:50,461 --> 02:46:48,460 already and so really nothing should 3763 02:46:53,610 --> 02:46:50,471 surprise anyone but you know that there 3764 02:46:55,680 --> 02:46:53,620 are there are sort of mental structures 3765 02:46:57,090 --> 02:46:55,690 in place that again that can make some 3766 02:46:58,559 --> 02:46:57,100 things dangerous but there 3767 02:47:00,960 --> 02:46:58,569 a lot of the metaphors they use about 3768 02:47:01,920 --> 02:47:00,970 you know one civilization more advanced 3769 02:47:04,200 --> 02:47:01,930 encountering another one in that 3770 02:47:06,179 --> 02:47:04,210 civilization collapses 3771 02:47:08,010 --> 02:47:06,189 you know that's often true but it's 3772 02:47:08,880 --> 02:47:08,020 often not I mean the Chinese had no 3773 02:47:11,160 --> 02:47:08,890 problems 3774 02:47:13,439 --> 02:47:11,170 you know encountering these people was 3775 02:47:15,090 --> 02:47:13,449 sometimes more technology than them and 3776 02:47:16,500 --> 02:47:15,100 incorporating them into their culture 3777 02:47:19,200 --> 02:47:16,510 and they've done a great job of that in 3778 02:47:20,670 --> 02:47:19,210 the last couple hundred years you know a 3779 02:47:23,070 --> 02:47:20,680 lot of the examples of you know the 3780 02:47:24,240 --> 02:47:23,080 Aztecs and Incas you know there are 3781 02:47:28,200 --> 02:47:24,250 other factors that one just they were 3782 02:47:31,410 --> 02:47:28,210 overwhelmed by Cortes and and and 3783 02:47:34,260 --> 02:47:31,420 company there were just images other 3784 02:47:37,939 --> 02:47:34,270 other facts and play so I just I can 3785 02:47:41,309 --> 02:47:37,949 still see why a high-end sort of 3786 02:47:43,019 --> 02:47:41,319 think-tank person around the government 3787 02:47:44,490 --> 02:47:43,029 intelligence would have been concerned 3788 02:47:46,740 --> 02:47:44,500 about that possibility 3789 02:47:51,059 --> 02:47:46,750 back in the 50s especially what they do 3790 02:47:53,250 --> 02:47:51,069 do about the sort of Cold War thinking I 3791 02:47:54,809 --> 02:47:53,260 guess we know I guess we now now have 3792 02:47:58,229 --> 02:47:54,819 more knowledge about how the public will 3793 02:48:00,929 --> 02:47:58,239 react to gradual disclosures of any 3794 02:48:04,710 --> 02:48:00,939 contact with aliens we know that now I 3795 02:48:07,559 --> 02:48:04,720 guess yeah and the the other and you're 3796 02:48:09,479 --> 02:48:07,569 right about one point and before I even 3797 02:48:10,769 --> 02:48:09,489 say what that is I do want to thank you 3798 02:48:12,889 --> 02:48:10,779 for coming out tonight it's been an 3799 02:48:16,469 --> 02:48:12,899 amazing conversation I look forward to 3800 02:48:18,870 --> 02:48:16,479 talking not only in the future but you 3801 02:48:20,939 --> 02:48:18,880 mentioned queuing on I do want to get 3802 02:48:22,710 --> 02:48:20,949 into that with you at a later date and 3803 02:48:24,300 --> 02:48:22,720 some other stuff but just been a 3804 02:48:27,240 --> 02:48:24,310 fascinating conversation and thank you 3805 02:48:29,130 --> 02:48:27,250 but you did bring up I think a very 3806 02:48:35,099 --> 02:48:29,140 important point and some of the stuff 3807 02:48:37,580 --> 02:48:35,109 that you exposed not only with some of 3808 02:48:39,960 --> 02:48:37,590 the surveillance programs and the 3809 02:48:42,090 --> 02:48:39,970 civilian contractors and corporations 3810 02:48:45,510 --> 02:48:42,100 and the m.i.c the military industrial 3811 02:48:48,420 --> 02:48:45,520 complex that are using against our 3812 02:48:51,450 --> 02:48:48,430 citizens that that takes away some of 3813 02:48:54,000 --> 02:48:51,460 the shock of other things that would be 3814 02:48:56,010 --> 02:48:54,010 exposed later you know and that's I 3815 02:48:57,889 --> 02:48:56,020 think that's a very good point that you

experience he was he 3871 02:51:16,050 --> 02:51:13,539 was like Jimmy I'll talk about all of 3872 02:51:18,179 --> 02:51:16,060 that but I didn't want to revisit those 3873 02:51:22,050 --> 02:51:18,189 because it's a you know it's not exactly 3874 02:51:23,740 --> 02:51:22,060 a fun time but after he gets out the 3875 02:51:28,390 --> 02:51:23,750 second he talked to 3876 02:51:31,540 --> 02:51:28,400 ooh vice they arrested him again and I 3877 02:51:32,590 --> 02:51:31,550 was reaching out to Barrett - come on 3878 02:51:36,460 --> 02:51:32,600 fade to black 3879 02:51:38,710 -->

3882 02:51:47,410 --> 02:51:43,100 speaking device which stopped him from 3883 02:51:50,080 --> 02:51:47,420 coming on this show and I just it's like 3884 02:51:53,560 --> 02:51:50,090 revisiting the nightmare again for him 3885 02:51:55,360 --> 02:51:53,570 and they they held him at an undisclosed 3886 02:51:58,360 --> 02:51:55,370 location and they wouldn't tell anybody 3887 02:52:00,280 --> 02:51:58,370 his family or anything what was going on 3888 02:52:03,130 --> 02:52:00,290 and it was like the nightmare started 3889 02:52:04,690 --> 02:52:03,140 all over again it was an unbelievable 3890 02:52:07,690 --> 02:52:04,700 thing he has been through a lot 3891 02:52:10,090 --> 02:52:07,700 I just talked about like it he takes 3892 02:52:14,500 --> 02:52:10,100 activists to a whole nother level man he 3893 02:52:18,850 --> 02:52:14,510 he definitely lives up to everything 3894 02:52:20,830 --> 02:52:18,860 that he says that he is about mm-hmm 3895 02:52:24,580 --> 02:52:20,840 absolutely hey can I go down on another 3896 02:52:26,170 --> 02:52:24,590 Road here real quick sure okay because I 3897 02:52:28,180 --> 02:52:26,180 didn't get stalked America since you had 3898 02:52:30,790 --> 02:52:28,190 Emory on the other night man my head was 3899 02:52:32,200 --> 02:52:30,800 just wrapping around the information 3900 02:52:34,030 --> 02:52:32,210 that Emory gives us and one of those 3901 02:52:37,450 --> 02:52:34,040 things that he dropped was Malaysian 3902 02:52:39,100 --> 02:52:37,460 flight 370 mm-hmm and when he disclosed 3903 02:52:42,160 --> 02:52:39,110 what he what he felt what really 3904 02:52:43,750 --> 02:52:42,170 happened with that and I think the fader 3905 02:52:46,000 --> 02:52:43,760 nots the audience is so big a lot of 3906 02:52:48,460 --> 02:52:46,010 people to notes I hope everyone and you 3907 02:52:50,350 --> 02:52:48,470 know relates to what I'm referring to so 3908 02:52:52,000 --> 02:52:50,360 as I thought about that situation it's 3909 02:52:54,580 --> 02:52:52,010 like so when they do something like that 3910 02:52:56,230 --> 02:52:54,590 is they're thinking you know well we got 3911 02:52:58,830 --> 02:52:56,240 to snap this whole Plane full of people 3912 02:53:02,140 --> 02:52:58,840 to save this server and save possibly 3913 02:53:03,580 --> 02:53:02,150 thousands of military or government 3914 02:53:05,350 --> 02:53:03,590 lives because of the sensitive 3915 02:53:08,140 --> 02:53:05,360 information on this server so does the 3916 02:53:09,760 --> 02:53:08,150 means justify the ends and they 3917 02:53:13,570 --> 02:53:09,770 obviously the answer in their mind was 3918 02:53:15,460 --> 02:53:13,580 yes and so that made me think back to a 3919 02:53:18,790 --> 02:53:15,470 conversation that you had with Tom 3920 02:53:21,130 --> 02:53:18,800 DeLonge and I think I don't remember 3921 02:53:25,090 --> 02:53:21,140 exactly how he put it but he was talking 3922 02:53:26,680 --> 02:53:25,100 about how the guys that have been you 3923 02:53:28,060 --> 02:53:26,690 know they get to we all get to go live 3924 02:53:29,680 --> 02:53:28,070 our lives and they're into the heavy 3925 02:53:31,600 --> 02:53:29,690 stuff and we have no idea what they're 3926 02:53:33,970 --> 02:53:31,610 dealing with and they have real hard 3927 02:53:36,160 --> 02:53:33,980 decisions to make and it kind of made me 3928 02:53:37,599 --> 02:53:36,170 go down that road mentally like what was 3929 02:53:40,029 --> 02:53:37,609 he referring to but yet he couldn't 3930 02:53:42,340 --> 02:53:40,039 talk about it so does the means and his 3931 02:53:45,309 --> 02:53:42,350 mind justify the ends also because he 3932 02:53:47,529 --> 02:53:45,319 knows supposedly these inside things 3933 02:53:49,569 --> 02:53:47,539 that they have to sacrifice one thing to 3934 02:53:51,819 --> 02:53:49,579 save you know who knows thousands or 3935 02:53:58,420 --> 02:53:51,829 millions of people kind of just got me 3936 02:54:02,849 --> 02:53:58,430 to thinking well what I found and I'm in 3937 02:54:07,000 --> 02:54:02,859 agreement with you in that there's 3938 02:54:08,979 --> 02:54:07,010 something going on here and before we go 3939 02:54:11,290 --> 02:54:08,989 whoa wait a minute you know I brought up 3940 02:54:14,469 --> 02:54:11,300 the possibility of you know a portal and 3941 02:54:17,619 --> 02:54:14,479 or UFO's I was thinking something 3942 02:54:20,909 --> 02:54:17,629 supernatural paranormal but there was 3943 02:54:24,040 --> 02:54:20,919 when when the second plane was shot down 3944 02:54:27,639 --> 02:54:24,050 there was this is where I had an issue 3945 02:54:30,279 --> 02:54:27,649 so I go back and I looked at Malaysian 3946 02:54:34,029 --> 02:54:30,289 Airlines now before anybody picks apart 3947 02:54:37,389 --> 02:54:34,039 what I'm about to say factually don't 3948 02:54:42,449 --> 02:54:37,399 worry about doing that I did go back and 3949 02:54:46,599 --> 02:54:42,459 look and I think they had at the time 3950 02:54:50,920 --> 02:54:46,609 something like twelve planes right 3951 02:54:55,229 --> 02:54:50,930 twelve or fourteen or whatever and we 3952 02:54:59,889 --> 02:54:55,239 have to stop and think about the odds of 3953 02:55:05,949 --> 02:54:59,899 two identical planes for the same 3954 02:55:10,059 --> 02:55:05,959 airline you know and I just thought this 3955 02:55:14,080 --> 02:55:10,069 is way beyond the odds of the known 3956 02:55:18,909 --> 02:55:14,090 universe you know this is like somebody 3957 02:55:20,830 --> 02:55:18,919 hitting the lottery the the mega two 3958 02:55:25,389 --> 02:55:20,840 weeks in a row I mean what are the odds 3959 02:55:27,399 --> 02:55:25,399 of that right and and not only those 3960 02:55:31,149 --> 02:55:27,409 odds but the fact that it came from was 3961 02:55:34,750 --> 02:55:31,159 such a small pool of airplanes it's a 3962 02:55:37,300 --> 02:55:34,760 very very small number and I thought 3963 02:55:39,790 --> 02:55:37,310 that there's got to be a way that these 3964 02:55:44,019 --> 02:55:39,800 two are connected could it have been the 3965 02:55:46,840 --> 02:55:44,029 same plane now when some of the 3966 02:55:50,110 --> 02:55:46,850 conspiracy guys out there that we're 3967 02:55:53,410 --> 02:55:50,120 looking and I got tons of email dad 3968 02:55:56,200 --> 02:55:53,420 showing me the photographs of the plane 3969 02:55:58,360 --> 02:55:56,210 and different angles of it and things 3970 02:56:00,300 --> 02:55:58,370 that said that it was the same plane 3971 02:56:03,400 --> 02:56:00,310 that it wasn't a different plane I 3972 02:56:05,110 --> 02:56:03,410 realize that I forget one of the guys 3973 02:56:07,540 --> 02:56:05,120 that was presenting this stuff was 3974 02:56:09,490 --> 02:56:07,550 getting his website hacked and and 3975 02:56:10,690 --> 02:56:09,500 images were disappearing I can't 3976 02:56:11,200 --> 02:56:10,700 remember who it was it doesn't really 3977 02:56:14,800 --> 02:56:11,210 matter 3978 02:56:16,480 --> 02:56:14,810 she imagined that imagine that and so 3979 02:56:18,010 --> 02:56:16,490 I'm trying to chase down this info and 3980 02:56:20,679 --> 02:56:18,020 every time I was getting close to 3981 02:56:22,500 --> 02:56:20,689 starting to see it these images were 3982 02:56:26,050 --> 02:56:22,510 disappearing in and the site was hacked 3983 02:56:30,130 --> 02:56:26,060 but I that's when I had to back up and 3984 02:56:31,510 --> 02:56:30,140 go wait a minute here how gullible is 3985 02:56:38,910 --> 02:56:31,520 this planet 3986 02:56:42,760 --> 02:56:38,920 that they are able to accept that 3987 02:56:45,969 --> 02:56:42,770 Malaysian air lost two planes like that 3988 02:56:48,670 --> 02:56:45,979 nearly back-to-back and that we're just 3989 02:56:50,469 --> 02:56:48,680 supposed to go well you know stuff 3990 02:56:53,800 --> 02:56:50,479 happens you know I want to use another 3991 02:56:59,290 --> 02:56:53,810 word there that it just it just happens 3992 02:57:04,570 --> 02:56:59,300 no it doesn't right but nobody it seemed 3993 02:57:06,599 --> 02:57:04,580 like to me when it came to not only what 3994 02:57:10,210 --> 02:57:06,609 happened in the Ukraine but the original 3995 02:57:12,790 --> 02:57:10,220 Malaysian plane disappearance that there 3996 02:57:15,340 --> 02:57:12,800 were no journalists out there and no 3997 02:57:19,179 --> 02:57:15,350 organizations that were willing to ask 3998 02:57:21,429 --> 02:57:19,189 the very simple basic questions which is 3999 02:57:25,360 --> 02:57:21,439 how do you lose a plane on radar when we 4000 02:57:29,139 --> 02:57:25,370 have worldwide GPS these days that Rolls 4001 02:57:32,800 --> 02:57:29,149 Royce has all of the real-time telemetry 4002 02:57:34,929 --> 02:57:32,810 going back to their company for every 4003 02:57:37,450 --> 02:57:34,939 rolls-royce engine that is running on 4004 02:57:39,700 --> 02:57:37,460 this planet and they are able to look at 4005 02:57:41,889 --> 02:57:39,710 the status of any engine and suddenly 4006 02:57:44,830 --> 02:57:41,899 when a plane disappears they don't have 4007 02:57:47,110 --> 02:57:44,840 that data you know and and these are 4008 02:57:50,200 --> 02:57:47,120 very basic fundamental questions that 4009 02:57:52,900 --> 02:57:50,210 weren't being asked and I was very 4010 02:57:54,760 --> 02:57:52,910 frustrated with that I I didn't 4011 02:57:58,950 --> 02:57:54,770 understand why and I still don't to this 4012 02:58:01,610 --> 02:57:58,960 day why somebody doesn't go back and 4013 02:58:03,801 --> 02:58:01,620 investigate the story that 4014 02:58:06,140 --> 02:58:03,811 he was willing to just let it go the 4015 02:58:08,240 --> 02:58:06,150 search ended the process you know the 4016 02:58:10,520 --> 02:58:08,250 presses the CREP the majority of the 4017 02:58:12,261 --> 02:58:10,530 mainstream media is paid off and to 4018 02:58:14,690 --> 02:58:12,271 suppress these things and that's why 4019 02:58:16,460 --> 02:58:14,700 they arrest people like your guests you 4020 02:58:18,770 --> 02:58:16,470 know they do not want the truth coming 4021 02:58:20,870 --> 02:58:18,780 out about this or Vegas and 9/11 or any 4022 02:58:23,390 --> 02:58:20,880 of it and the minute that that story 4023 02:58:24,980 --> 02:58:23,400 came out of Emory's mouth it certainly I 4024 02:58:26,690 --> 02:58:24,990 mean number one I believe anything that 4025 02:58:29,930 --> 02:58:26,700 he says because I think he's very 4026 02:58:34,160 --> 02:58:29,940 credible but it just kind of made it 4027 02:58:38,841 --> 02:58:34,170 made so much sense it's like whoa well 4028 02:58:41,600 --> 02:58:38,851 and and we have everything about 370 4029 02:58:45,020 --> 02:58:41,610 with all of those questions that are 4030 02:58:47,870 --> 02:58:45,030 there okay there's home there's hundreds 4031 02:58:50,600 --> 02:58:47,880 if not thousands of unanswered questions 4032 02:58:54,801 --> 02:58:50,610 there there's that part but when we go 4033 02:58:59,680 --> 02:58:54,811 back to the Ukraine we have the plane we 4034 02:59:01,880 --> 02:58:59,690 have the records and it is in a 4035 02:59:05,270 --> 02:59:01,890 civilized part of this world 4036 02:59:08,870 --> 02:59:05,280 where you had two armies against each 4037 02:59:10,551 --> 02:59:08,880 other and so there's there is the 4038 02:59:14,620 --> 02:59:10,561 weapons on the ground there's the flight 4039 02:59:18,650 --> 02:59:14,630 data there is black boxes there are 4040 02:59:21,860 --> 02:59:18,660 radars we the ability to find out what 4041 02:59:24,770 --> 02:59:21,870 kind of missile and where and who shot 4042 02:59:27,470 --> 02:59:24,780 this plane down that all of this 4043 02:59:31,730 --> 02:59:27,480 investigation and journalism would be 4044 02:59:33,530 --> 02:59:31,740 easy to do and none of it was followed 4045 02:59:38,660 --> 02:59:33,540 through on none of it 4046 02:59:40,400 --> 02:59:38,670 it's that is a crazy crazy situation 4047 02:59:43,670 --> 02:59:40,410 where and the world was just willing to 4048 02:59:46,160 --> 02:59:43,680 just go whatever it was just you know it 4049 02:59:48,250 --> 02:59:46,170 just was shot down and crashed you know 4050 02:59:51,950 --> 02:59:48,260 it doesn't matter who did it whatever 4051 02:59:55,720 --> 02:59:51,960 and no ability to go to the crash site 4052 03:00:02,450 --> 03:00:00,470 and it seemed to be accepted and I was 4053 03:00:04,250 --> 03:00:02,460 very frustrated with that I would I 4054 03:00:06,380 --> 03:00:04,260 would have thought that there would have 4055 03:00:08,870 --> 03:00:06,390 been an army of researchers 4056 03:00:10,430 --> 03:00:08,880 investigators and organizations that 4057 03:00:13,460 --> 03:00:10,440 would have put up a fight and gone in 4058 03:00:14,440 --> 03:00:13,470 and tried to find out the truth but it 4059 03:00:17,690 --> 03:00:14,450 never happened 4060 03:00:21,290 --> 03:00:17,700 you know so why didn't it was it because 4061 03:00:23,360 --> 03:00:21,300 it was the same was it mh370 right was 4062 03:00:25,190 --> 03:00:23,370 it this crazy conspiracy theory that 4063 03:00:28,610 --> 03:00:25,200 people have been talking about well now 4064 03:00:31,310 --> 03:00:28,620 you know what we'll never know we never 4065 03:00:32,920 --> 03:00:31,320 will well let's not forget the CIA is 4066 03:00:35,630 --> 03:00:32,930 the one that created the terms 4067 03:00:37,280 --> 03:00:35,640 conspiracy theory so they get it for a 4068 03:00:38,511 --> 03:00:37,290 reason you know people who want to seek 4069 03:00:40,850 --> 03:00:38,521 the truth there's nothing wrong with 4070 03:00:42,440 --> 03:00:40,860 that but we're not allowed to it was 4071 03:00:43,940 --> 03:00:42,450 what we will on the internet we searched 4072 03:00:45,890 --> 03:00:43,950 and we searched but then you know we're 4073 03:00:47,690 --> 03:00:45,900 you know discounted with conspiracy 4074 03:00:49,341 --> 03:00:47,700 theorist but credible people like ferret 4075 03:00:52,160 --> 03:00:49,351 they arrest him and look what they did 4076 03:00:55,070 --> 03:00:52,170 to Tony Robinson so again you know it's 4077 03:00:57,950 --> 03:00:55,080 it is very frustrating you know what was 4078 03:01:00,320 --> 03:00:57,960 really cool tonight with Barrett now I 4079 03:01:03,591 --> 03:01:00,330 had no idea about 4080 03:01:05,960 --> 03:01:03,601 Barrett's UFO knowledge okay didn't know 4081 03:01:10,460 --> 03:01:05,970 and I've been looking at his life for 4082 03:01:12,910 --> 03:01:10,470 for for a long time and been a big fan 4083 03:01:17,530 --> 03:01:12,920 of not only his work but his fight for 4084 03:01:21,980 --> 03:01:17,540 for journalism and freedom of speech but 4085 03:01:23,960 --> 03:01:21,990 very refreshing to hear his take when he 4086 03:01:27,230 --> 03:01:23,970 is talking about he didn't mention 4087 03:01:29,420 --> 03:01:27,240 Project Mockingbird by name but that's 4088 03:01:32,180 --> 03:01:29,430 what you know he was today so he is 4089 03:01:34,430 --> 03:01:32,190 quite familiar with all of these 4090 03:01:36,801 --> 03:01:34,440 subjects and he was very comfortable and 4091 03:01:37,540 --> 03:01:36,811 going there I was very impressed with 4092 03:01:40,820 --> 03:01:37,550 that 4093 03:01:42,320 --> 03:01:40,830 mm-hm yeah the mini study picked up 4094 03:01:46,220 --> 03:01:42,330 Jacques believes look I get here to 4095 03:01:48,620 --> 03:01:46,230 surprise again so oh really yeah that 4096 03:01:54,470 --> 03:01:48,630 was cool I did I was like he didn't just 4097 03:01:57,051 --> 03:01:54,480 say Jacques Vallee did he he said Brook 4098 03:01:59,301 --> 03:01:57,061 dude you know and you've got to uh 4099 03:02:01,190 --> 03:01:59,311 you've got to have a basic little 4100 03:02:05,060 --> 03:02:01,200 foundation to be able to go into those 4101 03:02:07,670 --> 03:02:05,070 zones and and talk about it very very 4102 03:02:10,610 --> 03:02:07,680 bright guy with his feet on the ground 4103 03:02:13,250 --> 03:02:10,620 and what what a great show tonight not 4104 03:02:14,780 --> 03:02:13,260 only for the fader nots but for myself 4105 03:02:17,750 --> 03:02:14,790 too as well that was just an amazing 4106 03:02:20,780 --> 03:02:17,760 conversation I'm glad he's on our side 4107 03:02:23,190 --> 03:02:20,790 Oh 100% account and then he said cueing 4108 03:02:26,219 --> 03:02:23,200 on I was like oh here we go 4109 03:02:28,469 --> 03:02:26,229 you know and I did I I just thought 4110

with the pursuance 4113 03:02:40,710 --> 03:02:37,360 project in his new book you know my 4114 03:02:44,130 --> 03:02:40,720 glorious defeats and and everything that 4115 03:02:47,400 --> 03:02:44,140 he's got going on in his life to say 4116 03:02:50,310 --> 03:02:47,410 these things right in a row he he is 4117 03:02:53,400 --> 03:02:50,320 well-read and he is on top of the on top 4118 03:02:55,230 --> 03:02:53,410 of the world as far as research up on 4119 03:02:56,880 --> 03:02:55,240 top of some of the rhetoric - and let me 4120 03:02:59,750 --> 03:02:56,890 just say in closing
