      It's more than that. The fact that Gary was on a dial-up Internet connection and supposedly destroyed data on those networks, well we all know how slow dial-up Internet was in the day. The usernames and passwords they used on those compromised systems were generic any one could have worked it out so technically he didn't hack he discovered their usernames and passwords could simply just log in like normal. It was a set up, someone to make an example of, a game to them. Another point to make if he could of done as much damage as they said he did why couldn't he download everything that he found on Solar Warden. The whole case against him was bogus which should of sounded alarm bells for everyone else after him that the US DOD love to play these games gives them something worth while to do.

      Jesus Christ is the only hope in this world no other gods will lead you to heaven

      Today is the day of salvation come to the loving savior Today repent and do not go to hell
      Come to Jesus Christ today
      Jesus Christ is only way to heaven
      Repent and follow him today seek his heart Jesus Christ can fill the emptiness he can fill the void

      Today is the day of salvation tomorrow might be to late come to the loving savior today
      Holy Spirit Can give you peace guidance and purpose and the Lord will
      John 3:16-21
      16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
      Mark 1.15
      15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
      2 Peter 3:9
      The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
      Hebrews 11:6
      6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Considering he said that more than half of what he got into had no password. That's like having a fence around your yard with no signs posted and an open gate and someone drives through your gate and enters the property, it's totally legal until the owner asks them to leave, and if they don't leave immediately after being asked, that's when it becomes a crime.

      A person of a country governed by law is guilty of a crime when proof is levied against them and through civil process, like court, and that it is concluded that the proof substancuates the claim that the crime did-indeed take place by the person accused of breaking the law:
      The United States has no such proof, as mentioned in this video, and were only able to request extradition after a law was passed stating no proof was required anymore which if done without proof, and without fair trial, would violate multiple articles of the UK's Human Rights Act including Article 5, Article 6, Article 7, Article 9 and Article 14, with even more Articles possibly triggered if conversed in court.

No one ever said anything to each other like ' Hey how's it going? Found anything good? " He never knew what countries all those other hackers were from. They just all very politely kept on doing whatever they were doing. So the title of this video could also be " The Man Who Got Caught Hacking The U.S. Government. "

What I found is the RepubliCons are in all the positions of power in our 16 three letter intelligence agencies (if I name them they will remove my comment, but I'm sure you know of which I speak), also all of our military and their separate divisions. This is a huge imbalance, because they are using the reactive or primal part of the brain instead of the thinking part. That is why they wanted Gary to fry because he humiliated them just saying something innocuous. It's a miracle his mom and Teresa May were able to stop the crazy. Julian on the other hand is sadly stuck unless the U.K. Supports him, and so far we don't see that happening.

      @Floating.Swords 8 місяців тому

      Yeah, I also noticed that she skimmed over that critically important piece of information in this case. It wasn't just about hacking and "mocking" the U.S. government. The underlying reason why they wanted to extradite him is because of the information that his system's breach revealed, chiefly a list with names of purported "off-world officers" and the existence of a secret space program called Solar Warden, which according to his leak was being run by the U.S. Navy.
      Apparently, his "hack" included images with renderings of ships/craft that were being used by said officers. Is it real? Who knows. Unless the government comes clean with an official confirmation, it's just all speculation at this point. However, it's the only thing that really makes any sense in this whole case given the current state of affairs with the push for UAP/UFO disclosure in within the U.S. government. Why would they go to such extreme lengths at the time to prosecute and jail someone (decades in this case) for a crime so trivial as hacking?
      The skeptics will say that this was all just a case of an arrogant script kiddie looking for proof of aliens, and by proxy he inadvertently revealed that certain governmental organizations in the U.S. had zero security standards. They'll say that this was all just a big nothing burger. If that's true then why the full-court press from the highest levels of government to have Gary brought to the United States to face charges? Why push for an entirely new extradition treaty in order to get this one guy?
      The only logical conclusion is that empire of lies wasn't embarrassed about the hack and being mocked. They were embarrassed because he revealed an illegal, off-the-books, special access program that nobody at that time was supposed to know about.

      That's probably why the US wanted him so bad. He probably had classified information that they no way would trust him to keep quiet.

      Just some BS he made up, like all the alien stuff. Like the picture that clearly showed a UFO he hadn't downloaded but somehow seen the contents of. 🤦‍♂

      John 3:16-21
      16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
      Mark 1.15
      15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
      2 Peter 3:9
      The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
      Hebrews 11:6
      6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
      Jesus

    Some if not all of these "Delete Me From The Internet" types of services can actually lead to accidentally spreading all of your info even wider.
    To remove your info, you need to specify the very info you want removed - you need to provide it to the service. And then they have to do the same when serving requests to various aggregators. Some of whom may not have had your information beforehand, but may then be forced to keep it by law after it was provided to them to ask for deletion...

    Instead of going against Gary. Hire him to be on your team. You could learn what you don't already know.
