The anti-secrecy organization Wikileaks just releaseda treasure trove of files that for now you can not read. The group which has been assisting ex-NSA cotractor Edward Snowden after he leaked top secret files to the media, posted links for about 400 gigabytes of files on their facebook page Satureday and asked their fans to download the files and mirror them elsewhere. The reflection of cryptic post of Wikileaks/facebook is given above. The organization posted the same message about its "insurance" files to Twitter. You can download the files via torrentm but since they are encrypted- and Wikileaks hasnot yet provide key- you would not be able to open them. It is garner at least one thing of note from the file names alone: they probably have a very high level of encryption. The end of the files 'aes256' probably stands for Adavanced Encrytion Standard 256 bytes'. It is a way of locking up your files that even the NSA has approved for use on top secret data. What is in the files is anyone's guess for now, but there is already plenty of speculations.
