Wikileaks Releases A Massive "Insurance" File That No One Can Open

Posted by samzenpus on from the just-in-case dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Anti-secrecy organization WikiLeaks just released a treasure trove of files, that at least for now, you can't read. The group, which has been assisting ex-NSA contractor Edward Snowden after he leaked top-secret documents to the media, posted links for about 400 gigabytes of files on their Facebook page Saturday, and asked their fans to download and mirror them elsewhere."

    Yep, I'll be downloading it with my annoying co-worker's computer after he goes home for the night. Come to think of it, I'll do it again from my boss' machine.

    What makes you think real americans are after said principles or have a grasp of declaration of independence?

    What makes you think Real Scotsmen don't exist in a superposition of both true and untrue?!
