DD6 - Cryptome Archive

Welcome back to Deep Dives everyone!
The 6th edition of the Research Challenge has come to an end.
As noted in the original post, the Cryptome archive is a bit of a controversial collection. Nevertheless, we thought it deserved to be included as it's the oldest leak archive in existence, dating back to the mid-nineties.

In this bear market, posting rewards are down as well as general activity across the Steem blockchain, couple that with the somewhat controversial archive, participation in DD6 wasn't as lively as some of the previous editions. However, we're happy that there are a few hardcore researchers who continue to tough it out with us each and every time despite the smaller payouts. Much respect to you all!

On a brighter note, fewer entries means your chances of taking home some STEEM rewards is much greater!

There was a certain synchronicity to the research into DD6 Cryptome Archives with a focusing on dual use technology, surveillance, backdoors, NSA, consumer manipulation, and more. Reading these entries back-to-back definitely reminds us that there's much more going on below the surface than what we're being led to believe by government, big business, our friends at the military industrial complex and the intelligence industrial complex too.

Seeing as though we only have three entries for DD6, we've decided to split the reward between all three of our hardcore researchers for their hard work and dedication. Congratulations to each of you!

Wikileaks on the Horizon

The tradition continues with our upcoming announcement of DD7 as we'll be of course returning to the Wikileaks Archive for the next research challenge. Hopefully, that slacker @v4vapid will get his shit together and contribute to the Wikileaks deep dive!

My deep gratitude for the efforts made by all to uplift lost information and preserve it here on the block chain.
