Risk Page #3

Synopsis: Filmed over six years, Risk (2016) is a character study that collides with a high stakes election year and its controversial aftermath. Cornered in a tiny building for half a decade, Julian Assange is undeterred even as the legal jeopardy he faces threatens to undermine the organization he leads and fracture the movement he inspired. Capturing this story, director Laura Poitras finds herself caught between the motives and contradictions of Assange and his inner circle.

the servers that twitter runs,

And all but two of them

were blocked by te data,

And this meant that twitter

was not able to be used.

yeah.

But specifically,

I have data...

- It's extremely dangerous

to talk with

Inaccurate information

in such matters.

Oh, I have accurate data.

So, I mean, we could also talk

about the propaganda

Sms sent by the mobile

phone providers.

We can get to that later.

I have data-

Independent data from egyptians

and I gathered myself,

So while it might be dangerous

to have this conversation,

I'm happy to talk about it,

because it's truthful.

For example,

did someone hold a gun

To the heads

of your engineers and said,

"block these sites"?

Because noor

did not do this blocking.

The noor isp did not do this.

So why did te data collaborate

with the mubarak regime

And block these sites

and try to stop the revolution?

- Jacob-

- you want to build the future?

Will you agree to stand

against all censorship

Will you abide by

the egyptian constitution?

- I ask you-wait, wait.

Please.

I ask you right now,

since you're here.

Every person-

vodafone, nokia,

Who collaborates

with the iranian dictators

And apparently mubarak

for a year.

So I'd like to know,

will you all agree to stand

Against censorship

on the internet

And to abide by

the egyptian constitution?

Will you do it? Vodafone?

Is that a yes?

- Just a minute, please.

- Will you agree

to stand against censorship?

- I will come back-jacob,

will come back to the panel.

- He's got the microphone.

I'd just like to ask-

- Jacob, I will come back

to the panel.

- It's okay.

He can say "yes,"

Because he believes in the right

of the egyptian people.

- We'll come back to the panel.

We have a question there.

Okay.

- These remarkable

trove of documents

That have been released

in the last year.

The iraq war logs,

The afghanistan war logs,

And the u. S. State department

documents.

Why does it matter so much?

- It has been

my long-term belief

That what advances us

as a civilization

Is the entirety

of our understanding.

What human institutions

are actually like.

And at the moment,

we are severely lacking

In the information from big,

secretive organizations

That have such a role

in shaping how we all live.

Institutions-

the most powerful institutions,

From the cia

to news corporation,

Are all organized

using technical young people.

What does that mean,

when all those

Technical young people

adopt a certain value system,

And that they are

in an institution

Where they do not agree

with the value system.

And yet, actually, their hands

are on the machinery.

Light them all up.

Come on, fire.
