Why did @stevesi.xyz email Jeffrey Epstein an article about Bitcoin's involvement with and similarities to CSAM while boasting of his gains?
From: Steven Sinofsk Sent: 11/22/2013 3:48:56 PM To: Jeffrey Epstein [jeevacation@gmail.com] Subject: Bitcoin and DC Importance: High http://www.washi ngtonpost.com/blogs/the-switch/wp/2013/11/21/heres-how-bitcoin-cha rmed-washington/ I'm up 50% on my BTC investment! Here's how Bitcoin charmed Washington BY TIMOTHY B. LEE The way the event was framed didn't augur well for Bitcoin. One of the conference's two sponsors (along with Thompson Reuters) was the International Centre for Missing and Exploited Children. A major theme of the second panel was the use of bitcoins to purchase child pornography. "Child pornography is like Bitcoin in some ways," said Andrew Oosterbaan, who prosecutes child pornography cases for the Justice Department. "It has intrinsic value to people who want it. The more valuable child pornography is the new child pornography. When you add an anonymous currency, you've taken individuals who are already incentivized to produce, given them a far more meaningful incentive to do so."

Wow. I did not know that. You're telling me now for the first time.

I'm saying both of them should be arrested, but for reasons likely unrelated to whatever is going on in France (which is still unclear)
None of this necessarily means that Pavel Durov should have been arrested and, say, Mark Zuckerberg—whose platforms are also full of many of the things that are on Telegram—should not. (To be clear, I’m not saying *either* of them should be arrested).

Peter, you've added nothing.
Two thoughts for today: 1. It is a *big deal* that a would-be assassin open fire on former President Trump yesterday, injuring him and killing at least one person. 2. As to “what it means for the election”, the only thing that I know *for certain* about the future is that it has not happened yet.

is it definitely a TLS thing? I would have guessed it was the www-redirect, or do you follow 302s?
