Assange defends publication of Clinton emails

[abaris]

He claims they had no access to any Trump data and could only publish what he had. I tend to believe him, actually. But he doesn't ask the relevant question. Why's an idiot's campaign so much tighter than the one of a political professional? Honi soit qui mal y pense, as the old saying goes. I'm usually not in the conspiracy camp, but it seems rather obvious that the leak was in a convenient place rather than in a balanced one.

He also said his organisation had no information about Mrs Clinton's presidential rival Donald Trump that "fufills our editorial criteria."

Lol, Assange didn't help himself at all with his behavior this year.

He didn't help himself for quite some time now, I would say. He only had one shot at 15 minutes of fame in 2007. Since then there's virtually nothing of value coming from his general direction. The embassy mails? Well, yawn. It's an open secret that diplomats aren't as diplomatic when they don't expect to be observed.

arrogance.

Why did the 'professional' have her own email server?
why did she keep using it after it had been hacked 9 previous times?
What did she think she was going to happen?

On the other hand what you call an idiot the rest of the cognitive world calls a billionaire. Billionaires are always under attacks from competitors and have learned to 'safegaurd they sh*T' Otherwise they would not be billionaires..

That is why trump calls career politicians stupid. They flipantly deal with highly sensitive infomation without a clue as to technology they are dependent on to keep their secrets secret.

This is why your moron had a private email server that she was using to keep out of the view of congressional over cite. She honestly thought that her private efforts would be as secure as the national governments, which ironically is was.. (meaning hacked) But not as secure as Trump's.

This begs the question when has government ever done things more efficiently than private industry? Never. So then why the surprise that her info is all over the place?

Seeing as how trumps system was willingly plugged into Pravda, I can hardly imagine why it would matter to you that hillary's system was hacked.

Well considering that Assange's (or should I say Putin's) editorial agenda was "tell any lie to get Trump elected" I wouldn't be surprised if he is sitting on stuff. Stuff that will be revealed the next time the US confronts Russia.

I'm sure it won't get revealed. But maybe there will be a friendly phone call hinting at what could be reavealed. An offer Trump can't refuse. You know how it is between Dons.

I'm usually not into this kind of stuff, but the timeline gives me just a little bit of pause. Trump saying in one of his rants that maybe the Russians should look into the missing 30.000 mails in July and a few months later Assange getting his package.

If Trump has learned to safeguard his shit, why did his hotels get hacked twice in six months?

Hackers laugh at the private industry just as much as they do the government.

Trump hotels are only the latest addition to an increasingly long list of hacked companies. In the last two years, hackers managed to steal payment data from Albertson's, CVS Photo, Home Depot, Michaels, Neiman Marcus, P.F. Chang's, Staples, SuperValu and Target.

And we're supposed to believe he had no sensitive material breached?  I don't think so.

[Opoponax]

Never fear. Assange has stuff about Trump and all of Trump's cronies. And when that stuff comes out, even if it's unverified, no doubt Trumpkins will hold Orange Gasbag's feet to the fire. Surely they will hold him to the same standard as they did Hillary. No doubt they will express outrage at being lied to.

I wonder what's going to come out about Stephen Bannon. That's gonna be the information equivalent of opening up your dresser drawer to find it crawling with ten thousand spiders.

[Divinity]

Assange isn't about transparency. He's about his agenda, and about being famous.
