Why does the news increasingly sound like the lore of Cyberpunk 2077?
Yeah, everyone knows that people who have the courage to blow the whistle when they see awful shit, are likely to kill themselves before they can share that information with anyone… Makes complete sense.
Same with Aaron Swartz.
Alright… is there something I don’t know. I was not aware that Aaron Swartz’ death was a Boeing suicide.
Very similar story to the guy above. I mean, very similar!
Except Aaron was being prosecuted for pirating open scientific papers. He was being heavily pressured by the FBI and was facing serious fines and jail time.
It’s less surprising that he took his own life in that situation. I know less about the OpenAI whistleblower, but it seems much more suspicious from here.
Balaji’s parents claim to have evidence from their independent investigation, such as ballistic evidence from the private autopsy, which they claim shows a downwards bullet travel path that would be impossible by a self-administered gunshot. Balaji’s parents also claim that a tuft of wig hair found at the scene that did not belong to Suchir represents unexplained evidence.

Also, the fact that he had the balls to blow the whistle seems to imply that he had no intention of ending his life before he could actually follow through.
This shit is just so obvious.
Just America things
Yeah, killing people, the American exclusive
if you plan to whistleblow something, always plan it thoroughly so you cant be silenced by being murdered.
And make it abundantly clear to everyone that you’re not suicidal. Record videos with date stamps. Send date stamped letters by mail to friends, with instructions to retain the letters indefinitely, and perhaps which are clearly marked “to be opened in the event of my death”. The letters should say something along the lines of “I am not suicidal. I do not want to die. I am not going to kill myself under any circumstances. If I die, it was not by suicide. I want to live. I have ABC reasons to live. I have XYZ plans for the future.” Etc.
Keep multiple copies of the information in multiple locations, and make sure multiple people know where a copy is. Ideally, have a dead-man’s switch set up, or someone you trust to do it, to automatically send all the information to all the major news outlets if you do turn up dead, along with a statement akin to the letter outlined above to make it clear you were murdered.
I’m not sure it’s in those exact terms, but I think there were a few cases with high levels of preparation. Ended up being ruled as suicides anyway by the courts and the media. Not saying they’ll always win, though. But their idealogical power is not to underestimate.
A minister in my country was deemed to have committed suicide by drowning in a 50cm body of water. Strangely enough, all witnesses have committed suicide too just before being heard by the courts.
And it worked. Everybody know it wasn’t a suicide, but it changes nothing for those responsible of the murder.
Didn’t the boeing guy pretty explicitly state that he was not suicidal to family and friends right before he died?
Yes he did
They think we are so fucking stupid, don’t they?
It’s a great idea, though in practice I fear you’d seem like Snowden and everyone would eventually coalesce around the idea that you’re a traitor because you didn’t get assassinated or put into a dark hole to be forgotten.
Isn’t Snowden, like, actually a dipshit though? He released info that got our spies killed.
Some was important to know. Some just got people murdered
What info got spies killed exactly? Aspersions were cast but no actual information ever came out about that, and presumably if they’re already dead then it can be released.
If that had actually happened, the government would have been howling from the rooftops about it, we’d all know their names.
But the reports on what damage it did were entirely redacted, and the worst thing they could say was “likely to have lethal consequences”, which presumably means it hadn’t had lethal consequences. Pretty weak shit, and even then we’re just supposed to trust them when they relay the contents of blacked out pages to us?
Also they’re bitching and moaning about how it will weaken their ability to do spy shit and like… good. Why do we want them to do that shit? Everything we know about what they do is basically universally evil, so maybe Snowden is a hero actually.
Nah, it’s bullshit, they’re just trying to assassinate his character and it sounds like you fell for it.
…Yea I’m not buying it.
Yep, he definitely got suicided. It without question was a staged murder setup to lead investigators to deem it as such…
And American cops are all too happy to take one less murder case if there’s any room to say it was a suicide. They’re not looking to add unsolved murders, especially ones that implicate he most powerful companies and men in the world.
Devs was a fun show.
You’ve heard about a Boeing suicide, no we have new age OpenAI suicide.
People love mocking Russians when their “leaders” fall out of windows, but where are these people when corpos kill plebs within US?
Weren’t there two boing suicides? Or the second one was something more creative, I think.
Second one had enough plausible deniability to permit neo lib regime whores to label it as a “conspiracy theory”
They will pretend that the first one did not happen or that it was a fluke in the system of “democracy”
America’s version of fell out the window
Sir, this is a “Democracy”
Can someone fill me in on the missing info here…
How is it that Zuck has been busted (basically) for training his ai on 80TB of pirated materials via torrents and it seems to be getting swept under the rug, yet this poor guy points out Sam Altman doing the same and he’s suicided?
How many times did he shoot himself?
I mean there is a pattern to these things.
If Putin doesn’t like you, you shoot yourself and then jump out of a building.
If the Clintons don’t like you, you shoot yourself twice in the back of the head before driving your car off a cliff.
If you have dirt on powerful people, you hang yourself in prison.
