Cryptome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Cryptome is a controversial website, hosted in the United States by John Young, that functions as a repository for information about freedom of speech, cryptography, and surveillance. Cryptome welcomes documents for publication that are prohibited by governments worldwide, in particular material on freedom of expression, privacy, cryptology, dual-use technologies, national security, intelligence, and secret governance -- open, secret and classified documents -- but not limited to those. Young reported being visited by two FBI agents from a counter-terrorism office and described having a casual discussion with the agents [4]. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Cryptome   (301 words)

The Cryptome Eyeballing Map Series - Map of the Month Young has a clear political agenda in creating the eyeballing map montages, to show people the places that the powerful do not want the rest of the community to know about or think about. Young has received no official comment or complaint about the nature of his mapping project thus far, but notes that eyeballing receives "quite an impressive number of downloads from official websites, in particular from the military". Part of the wider of agenda of Young's Cryptome project is to try to expose the actual workings of these virtual systems of security and intelligence through publishing documentary evidence on their structures, internal policies, statistics, budget details and other banal, but revealing, administrative materials of the various organisations involved. www.cybergeography.org /maps/maps27.html   (2981 words)

Comments on 2236 | MetaFilter John Young of cryptome discovered that the redacted text was not really gone -- by cancelling the PDF rendering at a certain point, the hidden names were revealed. Young has since heard that other people also noticed the flawed redaction and has concluded that the information is therefore public. Young sounds like he is basing his decision to publicize the names on the fact that other people are less ethical than him (i.e.: "If the flaw is known, then it's been exploited by someone.") Making this assumption about other people, he feels free to sink to their level. www.metafilter.com /comments.mefi/2236   (1705 words)

CIA Report on Mossadeq Overthrow Cryptome discovered during reading the report that edited portions could be read by freezing the page during loading just before the digital overwrite occurred (this was possible on a slow computer but not a fast one). Young also makes the mistake of concluding that, since some people know about the problem associated with PDF files (although he apparently stumbled across the problem rather than discovering it through any great skill or knowledge), there is no reason he shouldn't serve it all up to everybody on a silver platter. Young's reasoned response would be welcomed -- is that disseminating the report with all names intact contributes absolutely nothing to answering the question of whether such operations should be undertaken under certain circumstance or never at all. cryptome.sabotage.org /cia-iran.htm   (8749 words)

Boston IMC: newswire/19911 Cryptome is run by a 68-year-old radical activist, who happens to live in a $2 million New York apartment and to have worked for Laurence Rockefeller. The kitchen, and possibly the working area of Cryptome and Young's architectural practice, are beyond the living room as you walk towards it, behind a door in the corner of the living room. Cryptome offers this fillip to hawk the CDs: "Information on the CDs could be used to harm the United States." This line supposedly comes from an FBI agent who visited Young. boston.indymedia.org /newswire/display/19911   (1928 words)

Cryptome Cryptome Email Change: To avoid the 2,000+ spams coming daily to jyaATpipeline.com, that 12-year-old email address is being abandoned. To combat rogue bots which waste about 25% of Cryptome's bandwidth, siphoning hundreds, even thousands of files at a time, repeatedly, bypassing means and methods of blocking them, the collection is seeded with a few hidden trojans and viruses -- which cannot be downloaded by conventional access to files. Cryptome is attacked several times a day, like many other sites, nearly always by rogue bots, or bots set by default to siphon everything, including deep links, until a new user learns to trim the wide mouth suck. www.dvd-copy.com /documents/1817-cryptome.org.html   (2757 words)

Discourse.net: John Young, Man of Mystery I was thus very pleased to see that John Young was scheduled to lead a BoF (birds of a feather session) at CFP at 10pm Thursday night. Several times over the years I've attended conferences where John Young, the proprietor of Cryptome, was registered to attend, but no one ever picked up his name tag. Earlier, a CFP talk proposal on Cryptome's updated report on field testing of DC-area intelligence facilities security had been rejected, so I figured I was dead to the opinionshapers. www.discourse.net /archives/2006/05/john_young_man_of_mystery.html   (624 words)

Not Quite a Blog 2.0 - Secondary Chilling Effects: Cryptome Chilled by the FBI The Associated Press report yesterday by Tom Hays quoted Cryptome on the "chilling" effect of the FBI visit in November 2003.
