WikiLeaks Statement On Edward Snowden’s Exit From Hong Kong
Sunday June 23, 13:00

Mr Edward Snowden, the American whistleblower who exposed evidence of a global surveillance regime conducted by US and UK intelligence agencies, has left Hong Kong legally. He is bound for a democratic nation via a safe route for the purposes of asylum, and is being escorted by diplomats and legal advisors from WikiLeaks.

Mr Snowden requested that WikiLeaks use its legal expertise and experience to secure his safety. Once Mr Snowden arrives at his final destination his request will be formally processed.

Former Spanish Judge Mr Baltasar Garzon, legal director of Wikileaks and lawyer for Julian Assange has made the following statement:

"The WikiLeaks legal team and I are interested in preserving Mr Snowden’s rights and protecting him as a person. What is being done to Mr Snowden and to Mr Julian Assange - for making or facilitating disclosures in the public interest - is an assault against the people"

Talking about leaks of inappropriately collected and released information, while I have no social media accounts (Why would I need to sit on the crapper telling somebody about and sending a picture of the burrito I ate earlier is just beyond me... an ego thing , evil incarnate.)

It appears Facebook's been fishing (phishing, LOL) for additional private info and probably passing it along to a whole lotta folks of whom users don't approve ....

Keep in mind Facecrap is also an arm of the big data collection entity... think of the hype, the idiot, the movie, etc.  Betcha your not so secret friends is deeply inside that one, too...

Thanks for the link, knuks.

I have a Facebook account ~ not to send pictures of exiting burritos, as I figure most people interested in such things can usually 'roll' their own - but to keep easily in touch with disparate friends and relatives.

Having said that - I'm always amazed by people who give these sites access to their other accounts' contact lists. Do I want Facebook having access to all my contacts? Er, duh, NFW.

And ... for being too fuckin' lazy to actually engage your so-called friends and relatives in person (which is now the only privacy you have, as long as your phone isn't in voice or camera distance).

SMG, Wikileaks has been compromised at least once (Daniel Domscheit-Berg, who deleted the Bank of America expose files WL had promised would take down BofA, and also a complete copy of the no-fly list.)

I want to believe Snowden is real, and if he indeed is, putting his trust in Wikileaks was a bad, bad move. He'd be better off working with Greenwald and any other trustworthy reporters he can find directly. I am quite sure that not only does Wikileaks continue to be compromised, but that communications are carefully monitored as well.

Put bluntly, it's been established that Wikileaks is as much of a black hole for leaked information as it is an exposer of truth. I have no doubt most of the WL staff believe in the cause, but I equally have no doubt one or more Daniel Domscheit-Berg's lay in wait of orders from various spy agencies; if Snowden is real, it's a trap, and if he's not, they'll work to make it look like he is. So the Wikileaks choice is disappointing.

One of these days the governments of the world will have to back down and understand that humans as a whole are all together in this mess, and that letting people as individuals decide what and whom they transact with is the only way to prevent intrusions of the military kind.

NidStyles's picture

Sure, but the problem is that humans have this idea that they are the governments. If "we" were the government then "we" wouldn't be starting wars in countries most of "we" can't find on the map. Governments are imaginery friends, and ridiculous notions that silly people have to give other people the power and ability to organize our lives for us. In laymans speak, a government is a fabricated entity that some people that tend to be delusional take a bit too seriously and end up fucking up the lives of the rest of the populace for grand notions that aren't even real.

Gold is real, bullets are real, death is real, and so is life. Governments are not real. They are figments of imaginations.

I use the word human, because it's unpolite for me to make the scientific distinction between myself and those that believe in the idea of government.

 

Feel free to believe what you wish, just quit forcing me to accept your terms and you and me can get along just fine.

This ties up with other reports that "diplomats from the country where Snowden has sought asylum will be meeting him at Moscow airport" to assist him getting his connection flight...

He is known for attempting to blackmail Banco Santander's Chairman, Emilio Botín in his infamous letter:

 

Querido Emilio,

Please give me the money I requested.

Irrespectfully,

This has to be the most courageous act of humanity I have seen in a long time.....Instead of...And his name is tyler durden, it is definitely....And his name is edward snowden. Assange, Manning, Snowden, Schwartz, Hastings, Breitbart, take note my friends, these are the REAL HEROES, not some soldier sent to a third world country to support corporate interests and shoot brown people. These guys are like the new martin luther king getting roughed up in a jail cell or killed, because the reptilian parasites at the top do not like the light of truth being shown on their nefarious schemes. People in congress whom denounce these guys simply make me laugh, think about it for a minute, DO YOU REALLY THINK THESE GUYS WANT TO GIVE UP THEIR COMFY LIVES TO BE HUNTED LIKE RATS? On the contrary, they are quite aware of this current den of vipers called government that we have.

There is a power grab going on in upper level D.C.

NSA loses power and money.
