…and Barrett Brown intends to do just that in return for being sent to prison for 63 monthsand the requirement he pays ‘restitution’ of almost a million dollars for his “crime”, which consists of journalism, sharing a link, hiding a computer, and telling a fed to fuck off.Excerpt from his post-sentencing statement:“Good news!The U.S. government decided today that because I did such a good job investigating the cyber-industrial complex, they’re now going to send me to investigate the prison-industrial complex. For the next 35 months, I’ll be provided with free food, clothes, and housing as I seek to expose wrongdoing by Bureau of Prisons officials and staff and otherwise report on news and culture in the world’s greatest prison system. I want to thank the Department of Justice for having put so much time and energy into advocating on my behalf; rather than holding a grudge against me for the two years of work I put into in bringing attention to a DOJ-linked campaign to harass and discredit journalists like Glenn Greenwald, the agency instead labored tirelessly to ensure that I received this very prestigious assignment."
