brilliant interview with Amir Taaki
http://www.maxkeiser.com/2014/10/kr661-keiser-report-spaghettios-of-terror/

second half

How do you know Amir Taaki is making this Darkleaks thing?
Also is darkwallet still in development? Will it make Bitcoin usage totally anonymous? I remember reading about how it would still not be fully anonymous, at least not as anonymous as Monero.

DarkLeaks is a FANTASTIC IDEA .. beautiful application of the blockchain. Thumbs up to the devs!

What is so fantastic about it? Disclosing information for money sounds like extortion to me. Like stated above, the difference between being a whistle blower and a sell out is the fact you share the information for the money or out of esthetics.

On the other hand it would secure the whistleblower financialy, giving some backup to compensate for the whistleblowing and losing a lot of personal freedom.

Its good in some aspects and not in the other. I think verifying the information would be the biggest problem about it.

In my opinion, the fact that whistleblowers will be immune and free to share information that is vital to the well being of the general public, far outweighs the potential consequences any possible misuse of such a system.

The immunity and freedom to share information is guaranteed on other platforms as well, as is the backcheck of the information if the information is truly worth it.
With darknet information gets a value before it is checked and the chance you end up with trash is very high. The psychology is in work that when you pay a fair amount for your data(movie, book, drugs or whatever) you have a good product at hand, so people will be lured by a fake trust and pay the money only to be backstabbed.

The bureaucrats can come up with all kinds of crazy definitions, what matters is the truth. If it has to be sold, so be it. Maybe honest people can sell info for very small amounts just to facilitate the exchange.

Explain to us how Edward Snowden would be a traitor?

From the article:

“When you’re selling information you’re not really a whistleblower under the legislative legal definition in almost any country”

Selling state secrets and/or intelligence is considered treason pretty much everywhere, plus if you watch Snowden's interviews he talks about this, it was not about money or fame, it was public service.

You don't think that a citizen selling his country's secrets to the highest bidder should not be considered a traitor?

Edward Snowden and Julian Assange would be free men today.

Why would they be free man?

Edward Snowden would be a sell out traitor instead of a whistleblower and Assange whould not have fucked that chick?

The other side of the coin, is of course the almost limitless amount of illicit material which will find plenty of buyers. How would you like to buy some nuclear weapon launch codes for Bitcoin

How about people ISIS buying these type of information...

What does that has to do with anything?

I think organizations like those, who would benefit from exposing stuff would obviously be the people buying it.

I am in full agreement, the Bitcoin Foundation needs to go big time. http://www.btcfeed.net/news/bitcoin-foundation-must-dismantled/

very talented, intelligent bloke imo

"""Is Bitcoin being corrupted right now?

In some ways, yes. The Bitcoin Foundation is trying to establish itself as a central point of Bitcoin through which it can fund and steer development, while at the same time working together with the state and Wall Street. What’s going to happen, is that governments will use the Foundation to pressure Bitcoin development in certain directions."""

I saw it coming, people need to be careful about this bitcoin foundation, who decided to create it in the first place? why this need to always create a central governance? as time goes by i can clearly see where this is heading and it's bad news..they will try and create problems that bitcoin doesn't have and use this foundation to solve these problem

we better move on to another cypto now, the freecoin

no foundation, no roundtable,no regulated exchange,no wallstreet nothing just math and decentalization

Just curious. Where did you hear that?
Bitcoin is open source and decentralized. You could also make a foundation. The more the better. But I have never heard anything like that at BF and the people there are venomously anti-centralization.
