Month: November 2014

update as of 11/10/2014 7:00pm PST:

The post below was written before learning of the IGF incident & Twitter’s censorship of @Nero¹ (I will not discuss here, but the information is readily available via pro-#GamerGate sources on Twitter and via Google). I wrote the post below without knowledge of these specific events; however, both incidents make anti-#GamerGate’s position EVEN WORSE. The events EXACTLY illustrate the actions of corrupt establishment spitting in the faces of whose who dare challenge them, including those who directly/indirectly PAY THEIR BILLS. Make no mistake, friends–

Between the corrupt IGF & Twitter’s censorship of @Nero, anti-#GamerGate just ensured will not only continue, but GROW & INTENSIFY. Their actions continue to show us that #GamerGate & @WikiLeaks are right about their corruption.

WikiLeaks’ support of illustrates anti-#GamerGate’s flawed logic. How do the corrupt silence whistle-blowers? PR & character assassination.

But EVEN IF the whistle-blower is proven to have done wrong, does it automatically invalidate or even diminish the info leaked? In reality, ABSOLUTELY NOT. But in the PR/propaganda world, yes, you shouldn’t listen to the whistle-blower anymore. So if the allegations against Julian Assange are proven true, is all the info he leaked suddenly to be disregarded? If you seek truth, you should be able to separate the two. But if you’re interested in telling a PR narrative, of course it will be an excuse to ignore what was exposed.

So anti-, you tell me, is WikiLeaks supporting us because we’re crazy conspiracy theorists, whining about things that don’t matter & have no economic implications, & no implications for when consumers are misled? Or is Wikileaks supporting us because anti- exhibits the exact behavior of corrupt media establishment suppressing & controlling information to allow their activities to continue?

Because if is truly this hysterical hate group conducting illegal activities, PR isn’t needed. The authorities would arrest & prosecute us. The public would see our activities, & the outrage at something so clearly illegal & harmful would demand immediate action. But why does anti-#GamerGate require constant censorship & PR campaigns to condemn us? Why is it that months later, we’re still here, & we’ve INCREASED our consumer boycott power?

Because anti-#GamerGate has nothing. Absolutely NOTHING.

If you saw a crime, reported it & provided all the evidence, case closed. We’re all publicly tweeting. IPs are logged; it’s not hard to find us. We’re not hiding anything. We’re still here because we’ve done nothing. But you want so badly for you to be the heroes & for us to be the villains, that you’ve tried to PR your way out of this. But no. You’ve got nothing but talk, & this talk is based on lies. The truth will win.

We don’t need your approval. You & your friends are the corrupt establishment covering for each other. You can call it drinking the kool-aid, conspiracy theory & all the names in the book to try to discredit us. But the more you act like corrupt media companies trying to silence consumers’ opinions, the more we’ll keep going. If you want to start acting like the supposed industry professionals you claim to be, & address your consumers’ concerns, IMMEDIATELY, then we can all move on. If you want to keep doing what you’ve been doing, our resolve and activity will INTENSIFY. As a gamer and a consumer, that is a PROMISE.

will keep going until the corrupt have no influence. @WikiLeaks knows consumers are exposing truth. Whether you believe it or not.

We’re not playing politics. We’re not into gloating about “winning”. Forget all the chest-thumping from either side, & even from me. It’s all just talk. Listen to our core MESSAGE, which has been filtered out by all of our frustration and anger. Listen to WHY we have to boycott.

We want this to be fixed so we can play games & not worry about it. If you work with us to help fix this industry, & display honesty & a serious commitment to cooperative change, gamers/consumers will set aside all the rhetoric/posturing & truly  support you. If not, we will continue with or without you.

Games media & its influence over the industry & consumers will NOT go back to the way it was. Gamers will not allow it. Consumers will not allow it. #GamerGate will not allow it. The end.

Original Reddit AMA where Julian Assange was first asked about the media’s censorship of #GamerGate (ironically by an allegedly shadowbanned user who was supposedly unbanned temporarily so he could ask this question–I’ve never made sense of that situation, though I have several theories, but the end result is that the world knew that Julian Assange followed #GamerGate and encouraged us to follow it all the way to the top).

A NOTE ON MY SOURCES & RESEARCH: This is my opinion as simply a gamer & consumer, which is based on publicly available information & a few non-public sources. I cite my public sources above. Readers should verify and research this information for themselves before forming their own opinions. While I do have added insight on this issue (more than the average gamer/consumer) which informs my opinion, I am a consumer advocate, not a journalist.

A Note on Skynet Watch and #OpSKYNET: This site, Skynet Watch, was created before the usage of #OpSKYNET on Twitter. While I may cover #OpSKYNET as it relates to tech / gaming news, this site is in no way associated with #OpSKYNET and does not explicitly cover #OpSKYNET-related events. The similar usage of “Skynet” is purely coincidental.
