You know what Julian is up against

You know why we must fight for him

You know he fought for us

I know he'd be thrilled we've exposed a plot to harm some of the most effective activists fighting for him

As many of my followers will be aware, @_taylorhudak has been experiencing cyberstalking and threats by shadowy (cowardly) accounts for several weeks now. These accounts have also targeted me and some of her other friends.

We have the goods on who is likely to be behind it.

"Julian’s warnings of duplicitous men in activism movements are ringing in my ears. Seemingly unrelated events, with the benefit of hindsight, soon can be seen to contain common threads

Even in the silence of his unjust & brutal incarceration, his foresight echoes through years"

Talking on speaker to a group of WikiLeaks activists this year, who I've done my best to support, I was puzzled when some guy I'd never heard of jumped on the phone, confronting me about his petty, irrelevant vendetta against @_taylorhudak

All I could think was "Who are you?"

In subsequent months, I would learn the answer to my question.

I'd also learn that it wasn't just @_taylorhudak that he was going after.

It was an entire group of pro-Assange activists in the United States.

I frequently counsel activists *not* to try to expose infiltrators, as it's a massive time-sink & usually unpredictable.

Except when the hard evidence piles up & the sabotage is escalating at a critical time.

Also, when doing so will stop ongoing harm to vulnerable activists.

Killer clowns, threats that time is running out, that we'll soon be "destroyed" and photos of girls being attacked in bed are just some of the disgusting content that @_taylorhudak and I have been subjected to, by forces that are clearly seeking to harm WikiLeaks supporters

5 fantastic women put their heads together and started digging on who was doing this to us.

Clues in the pictures used by the stalker accounts and quotes in the profile banners, led us straight to a supposedly pro-Assange male recently ('19-'20) associated with our movements

But his penchant for Stephen King and horror movies was only the tip of an iceberg.

Other clues unearthed his obsession with the deeply misogynistic author Ayn Rand, and further tied him to the cyberstalker account which used a line from his favourite book 'The Fountainhead'

I spoke to 6 people affiliated with the group @action_4assange. All 6 went on record and provided witness testimonies about their IRL and online experiences with the suspected cyberstalker.

They told a consistent and corroborating story of his systemic attacks on their movement

They told stories of very, VERY serious things - things that could be used as pretexts for raids, arrests & jailing activists: such as the suspected cyberstalker having tried to get them to agree to hypothetical situations like killing Julian Assange's extradition trial judge

It's impossible to overstate the seriousness of what is being reported by these activists.

That someone who engages in such dangerous activity and presents as being so unstable has been stalking one of our best indy journos is frankly frightening and warrants serious concern.

Australian military whistleblower @MurdochCadell spotted the targeting of @_taylorhudak for what it was immediately - a textbook intelligence-agency style Information Operation

In my 2019 article 'Freeing Julian Assange Part 3' I wrote an 'Activism Survival Guide' outlining common methods of attacking activists & movements & how to counter them.

The infiltrator's activities align precisely with the vast majority of the techniques & tactics I outlined.

I don't out saboteurs for fun. I don't like doing it. I far prefer to study systems of oppression than low-level chumps perpetuating it.

But I do want Dack's misogynistic attacks on female activists to stop. I do want his victims protected. The light of truth is our best chance

Apparently the cyberstalker is already issuing tweets claiming he hasn't read the evidence-packed article & is pretending it is of no consequence.

But because he's a narcissist, you can bet he's read every single word.

Everyone who does read it will know the undeniable truth.

After receiving threats in DM's from the cyberstalker throughout the day & evening, the threats suspiciously stopped at the precise time of me publishing this article.

It will be interesting to see whether they continue & in what form

You can bet if they do, we'll document it

It took two x 16 hour days to put this article together, a sacrifice well worth it if it saves even one woman from being stalked in the future.

I'm exhausted & going to take a well deserved rest
