    I don’t know what it means to mirror a site. I am low tech. No Twitter, no Facebook, I don’t even know how to send a text message. But that’s okay.
    I do know this sounds like someone is messing with the Insurance file. Trying to wipe it off the face of the planet no less.
    Half Past Human was terminated with predujice this past week.
    HPH is not Wikileaks but truth-teller or human message descrambler site (that’s what I think HPH is).
    Find some steel cans to store your electronics in this next week, or build some Faraday cages. I know ” as that sounds.
    My instincts tell me there is going to be an massive attack on all digital, electrical equipment. All electronics need surge or steel can protection. Its going to be blamed on the sun. See spaceweather.com and get ready for the massive attack.
    Whatever the case may be, the PTB have their fur up and their fangs out about something – could it be Foreclosuregate? and want to take our connections to each other DOWN.
    Yikes. I think this is the beginning of the electronic wars. Like China, shutting down sites, etc.
    If this is the last post I’m “allowed” to post on Cryptogon, its been VERY GOOD to be in allies with you all here! Truly!
    Sorry for my long posts.
    Gawdess bless.
    No one gets out of here alive.

    Eileen, months ago, WikiLeaks put out a very large file that was (and is still) encrypted. Anyone can download the data, but a password is needed to open the file. The password hasn’t been released yet.

    All WikiLeaks would have to do is release the password and anyone who downloaded the file would be able decrypt the material.

    Because the file is already widely distributed, this can’t be stopped. Whether .gov/.mil actually would like to stop this, or not, is a different issue.

    It is a bittorrent hash-file, just download it with a client and you are a mirror. With DHT (Distributed Hash Table, summarized a who-knows-somebody-network for hashes), this file is unstoppable. Just load the latest Hollywood flick if you were offline some days and you are very well reconnected within the DHT-Network. Very handy. Now I see why the NSA hates p2p so much!
