Two points. These are true if Assange is just who he claims to be and the file posted contains real information.

First: While it is highly unlikely that anyone will be able to do it, deciphering the data and making the results known would void the 'insurance' and could well endanger Mr. Assange's life.

Second: Part of deciphering information is knowing when it has been successfully deciphered. If my life depended on the data, I'd make sure it was encrypted at multiple levels, Russian-doll-style. Someone with really good computers might successfully decipher the first level. But how would they know they'd done so when the result just looks like another stream of random bits and not some recognizable words or document signature? And what if the attacker doesn't know how many layers of encryption are present? You can see that the problem is mind-numbing. The complexity goes up exponentially with the layers of encryption.

I'm totally with you on the battle going on at high levels Posted just that in the thread about how is WikiLeaks not a threat to national security. Something these leaks might prevent could be an even bigger threat, you know? Or they could just not care.

You can't SAY that the file is 1.4 gig so it must be video.

It is ENCRYPTED. No one has any idea of how much padding might be in it.

There was an operation strawman about the mob, there's the strawman memory model (C++)

Since all the wiki files are in that same directory, prior to this, it is probably not that important. It probably has SOMETHING to do with logic or programming though.

www.philosophicaladvisor.com... is a powerpoint recently done that includes all 3 words in logic fallacies. It's probably not related, but it was a darn good read. lol

Am I just old or does anyone else remember the EARLY days of hacking, where the information itself WAS the prize, that getting and exposing truth and corruption were a way up the ladder of the hacking mertitocracy? That putting time and effort into "power to the people' projects like providing open source software - and intelligence - was a noble pursuit?

Assange really does seem to hold those principles in mind. I remember them. Remember the Hacker's Manifesto?

Consider every time you've created a directory or folder... For me, I know no matter how general (or even cryptic) that directory name was, it was made for a reason...

So, what connects "straw and glass bottle" with the leaked docs and their accompanied encrypted file?

Not saying the connection is of any significance what-so-ever.. But whoever created that directory name, it meant something to them.. And perhaps through speculation, we can arrive at the previously stated conjecture regarding what reference it may have...

What else do we do on a conspiracy site if not arrive at conjecture?

I have a hard time connecting the "strawman" speculation with the directory name "straw and glass bottle".

It seems much more logical to me to draw a parallel between the straw and glass bottle DoD experiments, than to connect "strawman" with "straw and glass bottle". Just sayin'

IF the directory has been in use for a long while, with multiple documents being served from it, I don't think it is relevant anyway.
Unless there is something else linking this particular file to that, that I am not aware of?
