Wikileaks releases three pre-commitment keys

This is getting very interesting.

"A way to visualize a commitment scheme is to think of a sender as putting a message in a locked box, and giving the box to a receiver. The message in the box is hidden from the receiver, who cannot open the lock themselves. Since the receiver has the box, the message inside cannot be changed—merely revealed if the sender chooses to give them the key at some later time.


Interactions in a commitment scheme take place in two phases:


the commit phase during which a value is chosen and specified
the reveal phase during which the value is revealed and checked
In simple protocols, the commit phase consists of a single message from the sender to the receiver. This message is called the commitment. It is essential that the specific value chosen cannot be known by the receiver at that time (this is called the hiding property). A simple reveal phase would consist of a single message, the opening, from the sender to the receiver, followed by a check performed by the receiver. The value chosen during the commit phase must be the only one that the sender can compute and that validates during the reveal phase (this is called the binding property)."

@wikileaks

Julian Assange's internet link has been intentionally severed by a state party. We have activated the appropriate contingency plans.

if wikileaks had this information all along and really thought they had such great bombs s, why did they do such a ty job of organizing their releases? the mass dumps are so burdensome you really dont think the average voter is going to get anything otu of it

[TheSanityAnnex]

Disagree. They are well timed and give the weaponized autists enough time to sift through them and pull out the goods. Each release has been more damning.

The severing of the internet connection itself should be considered damning enough... in other words, if the allegations were false, then why go through the trouble of trying to silence Assange or prevent further "leaks"?

What?

Ducks is on a mission and doing a fantastic job of parsing and explaining the relevance of every leaked email.

If they did. If Assange has nothing to offer, this could just be an excuse.

They should release whatever smoking gun that's going to turn this election around on Nov 7 and cut Trump's twitter at the same time, so he won't tweet at 3AM again and it up.
