Did he brag about it to you? Or do you just have such faith in Adrian Lamo and army investigators that it's a forgone conclusion? Can you imagine young idiot hackers ever bragging about high-profile hacks they didn't commit? This is my point, so far we've only heard from his accusers; we've heard nothing in his defense. With anyone accused of a crime, if you listen exclusively to his accusers, he'll sound pretty damn guilty. This is why we have trials, so both sides have the opportunity to be heard out. He hasn't plead not-guilty, they're not that far along in the process.

And of course I'm not saying that patriotism is a vice. But just that I would expect someone who is patriotic to appreciate the protections granted to prisoners and the accused under the bill of rights. Even if he is found guilty, this sort of unnecessarily cruel and seemingly vindictive punishment would be a violation of American principles.

I'm definitely not asking you to be ashamed of your country, or to see the release of those documents as whistle blowing rather than an intelligence leak. I'm only asking you not to pre-judge someone who hasn't spoken in his own defense. And not to support the mistreatment of prisoners awaiting trial.

Hello there, Adrian.

Just noticed you amended your bio though I don't know how long ago. I've really enjoyed the dancing around the mystery.

Think I'll indulge on some cake and bacon now,...small village was first thing already this mourning.

Adrian Chen, is that you?

@Asmo, @Gallowflak
1. Why lead on the groupies we fuck to believe we care about them, and then knowingly lie that their accusations originated from the Pentagon?
2. As the head of an organization, isn't there some responsibility to not be an asshole to our subordinates, even if they're powerless to do anything about it except quit our organization?

The idea that journalists shouldn't keep people honest if we happen to like the person seems to go against the idea of a free press.

I'm a big fan of Kubrick and count him among the great masters (like Fellini, Bergman, and Polansky).

I remember watching this film late at night on cable as a kid... and how it transformed my mind.








Adrian Lyne's "Jacob's Ladder," too!

Adrian! Adrian!
