http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20101206/ap_on_hi_te/wikileaks LONDON – Julian Assange's lawyer was arranging to deliver the WikiLeaks founder to British police for questioning in a sex-crimes investigation of the man who has angered Washington by spilling thousands of government secrets on the Internet. Lawyer Mark Stephens told reporters in London that the Metropolitan Police had called him to say they had received an arrest warrant from Sweden for Assange. Assange has been staying at an undisclosed location in Britain. "We are in the process of making arrangements to meet with police by consent," Stephens said Monday, declining to say when Assange's interview with police would take place. The 39-year-old Australian is accused of rape and sexual molestation in Sweden, and the case could lead to his extradition. He has denied the accusations, which Stephens has said stem from a "dispute over consensual but unprotected sex." The lawyer has said the Swedish investigation has turned into a "political stunt." |

So what will happen with the dead man's switch (the insurance.aes256 file) he set up? I would be willing to bet that if everything goes as planned it won't be released. If this is a tarp it will be released. More importantly how exactly did he set the file up, what prevents the holder of it from just releasing it? |

As far as I know, the keys need to be released for the file to be unencrypted, surely he isn't the only one with those keys. |

So basically this whole plan involves what I would assume is 2 other parties at the least? One with a key and one with the data, if those persons were compromised this guy would be SOl? |

I am sure all kinds of alphabet soup agencies are zeroing in on them.

He's full of shit. He's an anarchist, he would release the most damaging stuff he could get his handso n. |

The insurance file was posted on the wikileaks site and is available to be torrented, so I'd assume there's a group of people who have the key. |

If he releases the names of the informants, he isn't going to have anyone willing to tell him shit. |
