Details here. Cryptome has a history of making publicly available documents and information that governments would rather keep secret. Comments on Slashdot (if that has not been closed yet by US state terrorist conspiracies). I'd say they can't cover all the bad stuff up but they certainly try.

However there are still many mirrors, such as

http://cryptome.quintessenz.org/mirror/

Typical comment: "Cryptome has been an indispensable ally in many wars against secrecy, ineptitude, corruption, and evil-doing conspiracies all over the place. John [Young] mirrored a couple of separate batches of stuff I had a minor involvement in, and in both cases the world was made (in a tiny way) a less crappy place by his actions.

It's also a sad day in it's message that there is now, ultimately, no genuine free speech left on the net. If the state really really wants to suppress your message, it can do so. It's slow, labour intensive, and expensive for them to do this, so they don't usually bother; but when they need The System to function, it does."

IMO: I hope these cryptome mirrors, at least, will continue, most people do not want to be ripped off and a lot of the stuff on Cryptome seems to just have been dull sensible truths..
