This will be okay, forget hushmail; security forces now know about me and others involved, it turns out, and Gmail should be secure enough.

Yes, we've been involved in Egypt for nearly a week now. We're distributing our Guide to Protecting the North African Revolutions among our Egyptian contacts. If you can use IRC, log on to irc.anonops.ru, #opegypt. We have EGyptians there you can speak with. Go to #optunisia for Tunisians. 



I was asked by al-JAzeera to write an op-ed on all of this last week, which I turned in to editor; editor asked for more details, which I provided; but I haven't heard back since, which makes me wonder if Qatar royal family is unhappy with the momentum. I didn't think so at first when other Anons speculated to that effect but the evidence is leaning that way now.

This fellow will speak with you: csxd@live.com. He can give you his name if he likes but be mindful of security. I'm asking permission from others before providing their contact info as well but again, if you check into IRC and say I invited you, more will be happy to speak to you, and can get you in touch with police and army in Tunisia, etc. If you're having problems connecting, send someone in your stead and have them relay questions/answers.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you but I've been extraordinarily busy with our new recruits from North Africa. My people with PRoject PM are currently finishing up our plans to establish a secure wifi darknet across urban North Africa and other means of allowing populations to organize and communicate, and I have a film treatment due Friday to boot. But you're a priority so ask any further questions you like and I'll answer them. You can also log on to irc.freenode.net #projectpm for a glimpse of what's going down. Nothing that goes on in there is "secret" or useful to any government agencies; everything of that sort is discussed through secure mediums.

Good luck.

have you been keeping up with any of the egyptian protestor / activists? i've got a few contacts but if you know any of them who would be willing to meet in person that would be great.

Go ahead and set up a hushmail account and contact me at transistor@hushmail.com. I've got some things for you.

Great, thanks much Barrett. Good to meet you, too. Are any of your contacts in touch with people in the military or police? That may be something better discussed through hushmail- let me know.

And Mike- thanks for putting us in touch.

best,

Babak

Babak-

Good to meet you; actually just met with another Persian this morning regarding some things. Let me know what I can help you with; I've got a lot of people in-country who are either active Anons or who are working with me and my org, Project PM, on related efforts. I also have  a stream of info coming in. You can call or e-mail at any time and I'll get it immediately. Having said that, e-mail me at my secure address, transistor@hushmail.com, and try to do so from another hushmail account or similarly secure e-mail server.
