that smear campaign was to pay which he leeks as a sorry, again, or a friend for austin power. i rush to moore and report which investigated the trump russia saga and found no collaboration between the trump campaign a and russian exonerated wait 2 weeks. so there is 0 evidence that russia provided any weights or information to wait 2 weeks. we should also be clear that wiki weeks published over 700000 files on russia itself, would've been dear, what 2 weeks of julian to the, from the, one of the arguments we hear about why doing a song should be targeted from those who believe you should is that key somehow put people at risk, but what we've seen in more than 10 years now is a complete failure by the us government to present any evidence of any concrete
9:43 pm
9:44 pm
states never is as tight as i'm one of the most sense community best. in most all sense and up the, in the 65 to 5 must be the one else holes. question about this, even though or we will bend in the european union. the kremlin media mission, the state on rochester routing and split the r t spoke neck, even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube. the question, did you say stephen twist, which is the the test? so i usually generally speaking, these needed to copy math from the,
9:45 pm
from the projection. so it would say around june was they needed something to distinguish, isn't i couldn't really get one except before the how they felt. i felt opponents when he'd been rebec, according to being a more country position court in the final weeks. he had this material in his position in the final weeks the got in the new york times. and the spiegel became involved in processing and sifting through this material and had a great on the joint launch, a guy that went back to this, the tried to put a hold to it for don't anyone have been anyone that said delay was drawing the font and i was wasting absolutely with him and i'll say this in any course, sydney, an american court. it was julian who tried to stop the release until that full reduction to being done from the 1st day to the early hours of
9:46 pm
monday morning to redact. the was with him and we were sharing the problem. he rejected a 10000 nice by himself, quickly released the state of the a lot of the on the main, not the sort of practice the listing. you know, less or to i am is as of a mix, so he will not, i am used to edit that was the, the fundamental works that the made the veteran each of the documents, fife. there was $96.00 medium boxes, carefully rejecting the cables and to david lee hang lew, causing publish the password enable. he had a great sense of responsibility for the material, for the souls who provided the material and for the material itself,
9:47 pm
he went to great pains. he contacted hillary clinton to ask for help in redacting names. he offered that to the us government and they declined the us military accounts of local informed was that they had the given in some data or if it was a little bit into your law, why could not wondering whether you have found all of those, whether you know, or they have, if they have a particular code, does it what kind of within that within the, what's the sizes or is it wasn't too hard. now that said, it is possible, maybe maybe it's 5 or 4 heroes fire and for their choice. and we are forced to make odd stories. nice hod choices. do we do best effort to minimize tom, which we have done with the understanding that this is an ex,
9:48 pm
extraordinary body of material capable of producing extraordinary reforms. so what i want to say to people looking up is how do you, if you break a sound as a traitor, he's a rapist, he's a nurse whistles, she's a hacker. i don't blame you because you have been the seat. and if you think you've nothing to see, that's normal because otherwise you wouldn't be such the what if everything we've talked with you about somebody was would we have some coverage to see through it with a fresh perspective? would we be willing to go on a new journey is understanding this story of deception. nice bravery risk. everything to bring to
9:49 pm
the store in the redmond diary likes it data, which is where we had those who the places and that's at the university of maryland . miss julian is a student who was sitting here, there's a couple of us, i mean, kind of went to the elections together. there wasn't many actually students that had the crossover between physics science, lod, someone's in politics and fluffy. sounds really lovely to engage with someone who was thinking about both of those things and how to marry up those kind of ideas of logic and political thoughts. but that ability to one thing clearly critically from original perspectives and to,
9:50 pm
to have no fear and communicating them to think outside the box to think from a different angle. here's is clear that he was incredibly at the depth of that t, as in computers, as mazda, head of i think, where most of us, where with what we were learning and in science. and actually, i think i had it on a lot of the computer science courses at the time as those at solar eclipse. and the off is to go through and south is drive like a narrow window through the well may hills of julian and on the night of alice a cramped into a car and we just went on the right. you joined. she had a whole bunch of is songs that did collected for modeling it with a bunch of amazing interesting science songs like homely or uh and then like once you buy it then and only take like the mix of scientific music, music people who are communicating science concepts really advanced physics concept, gas as low as, as lower black and linked and magnetism. you have an idea of when i, when i have the theme and radium adult and wonderful, incredibly nasty but um,
9:51 pm
but lovely to be experience to, to be introduced to an entry offering. we have conversations where we don't want to make anyone uncomfortable or embarrass anyone or call out something which will really identify audio cause some friction. but actually, julia was really feeling us with it. he had no compunction. i got, you know, julian because i was part of an early internet clean these here in melbourne. he was corky. a observer of people clearly very smart. he wasn't that interested in what people thought of him. part of that i think is a little bit of an autism spectrum and that he didn't notice it. one of the things that he became most interested in trying to address was the issue of corruption.
9:52 pm
you've seen a lot of corruption growing up in australia. he had lived in a small town in queensland during the joe b o t, peterson era, a time when people were passing brown paper bags of cash to police ministers. he is at heart deeply and intellectual deeply sink, or he was very interested in cor, route problems. so things where does the system fold down at the foundation? corruption being something that if it was fixed would have this kind of enormous flow on effect. it would reduce equity in society, poor people would be less poor. also there'd be just less of a sense of injustice across society. is such a super intellect that can funds for the information on, you know, i've never seen anybody so focused. if you would just stay up for a day, just sort of racing, you know, like a all day old and all not researching things. or the way he came in to form when he
9:53 pm
leaves was a kind of a iterative process over time. like wine making, you know, they had a lot of ingredients and to be fine tuned. he had white boards that he'd rescued from tips. so his house had white boards in every roof. some people of paintings or posters, football, and most of white boards were filled with things. sometimes they were equations. sometimes the equations were filled with just words and reflecting a mass medical language of a social phenomenon. and what he could see was the information was becoming transferable. coffee table at little to no cost in large quantities. and so that churning desire for the d for social change combined with these other overlays, enabled by technology i think just mentioned everything came together at the right
9:54 pm
moment for him. my 1st contact with his wife on june sent me an email describing, showing sent this project he had in mind working. so the idea was about synchronous classified secrets of coverage. and that seemed to me extremely unlikely that you could really circumvent the national security agency. what julian's idea was for wiki likes was that maybe we don't need to go through our mainstream journalistic channels. there's an ability that encryption can give you if it's done in the right way to allow protection of that information to say on a really valuable source are really valuable piece of information. it's a really courageous, powerful concept that the website could facilitate anonymity of sources that have information that could expire on doing by
9:55 pm
governments, corporations, whoever it might be. what we see makes did was not to create the citizens of the world like general, which is how the politicians treat them. they commit the crimes, they do miss deeds, but never in front of the general and don't let the trip go and find out what we're really doing. doing is to talk about the logo, vicky legs. when is it setting it up? and it's like an hour glass and this to well just one on the top and one on the bottom. the 1st swelled dripping down with leaking into the 2nd world. and he said, oh is this is, this is a little bit of, of what the world we could make up, a well informed by the lakes of the previous world of corruption. and if those lakes informed all of that we'd like to make it will make it a better place. and in some sense, you know, the l boss is there is some of the ability to it that people and they sustain
9:56 pm
corruption and wrong doing for so long before they, they feel a need to expose that. com. thank you very much. believed in the media is completely manipulated and controlled, and more so now than ever before. and so into this one game, we see leaks the disclosure about the single greatest route. expanding, rising, is you they're telling your friend what's up for peaceful fortune, and as for your phone, part of the law, just protecting your machine? well, the difference in the news,
9:57 pm
9:58 pm
out by the united states in both of the, in iraq during the rock. cool, the welcome to explain it straight to us. the problem of the shopping lama show us jamie process before you. so those 2 things good. as i mentioned earlier, is up just typical plan was not expressed here. submit item, so you may have met as a way can we cods no problem. you have no open up in the front and then for the test. and if i know for will be street, which is pretty much full time for who might seem a bit lower francisco from over proof of those types of stuff that
9:59 pm
are coming out of the lives of figured out by us all the same. and so the most is just the enough one to the it's almost the that the system uh the good english is and you know, the, we are in moscow standing in front of one of worth as most iconic symbols in bodies, greece elegans and articles on a grandiose scale theater,
10:00 pm
the town itself is firmly under the control of the russian forces. there are no sabotaged groups, there's no ukrainians or there's no ukrainians who left here and we decided to stay here willingly. the strategic city about the, the, it's taking as rush or non profit is exactly which schools of when did the korean troops who apparently left behind them and with the stride to american ships sailing in the gulf, a lot on the spot of the account, paying for guns out early of the goods crippled a british vessel and drowned and us drug brazil says it's of stuff that is rel, has declared as president for so in a non grad are for comparing the depths of severely and think of that to the whole
