I think that if it helps people know more it is good journalism.

Know more of what it's true yes. I agree with you on that.

this story was the greatest embarrassment in 81 years of newsweek. when there is a quest for a hidden person and a journalist comes up with such a thin story dragging out the wrong guy to the world public it is the opposite of "good journalism"

they could have at least asked "is this the real satoshi ?" instead they pretended they had something, but they had nothing.

I love conspiracy theories. Mine is that this whole thing was cooked up by someone in the IC to draw Satoshi out of hiding, which seems to have worked since he logged into his P2P account.

He didn't.
He didn't sign his msg.

It was probably a BTC supporter with some skills.

Well, your probably isn't really any better than my probably. We're all just guessing. Do you think there we'll ever figure it out?

I think it would me more "sorry" donation than 'thanks'! Btw if he is true Satoshi he has a lot of coins and no need in another ones a lot .
For some reasons I think he is not Satoshi , just a guy who had got into troubles cause of mass media and wish donation would make it less difficult to continue his normal life

I don't think Newsweek did any irresponsible journalism.
Journalism needs to instigate curiosity, research, quest, inquiry...
Journalism is to help people know more about the world.
If it helps in that it is probably good journalism, even when people that don't like it for some particular reason say it is irresponsible.
Did you study journalism, Andreas? I think you should read some books and study it a bit more in order to make these kind of frivolous accusations. A bit of 'journalism deontology' won't hurt. Have you read any book about journalism, at all?

Did you read any books about human rights?

Look at mass media in the "first world" (you know, the one obsessed with sports, glamour, Hollywood, etc.), this is far from a violation of human rights.  Irresponsible for releasing personal details, yes, but if you want to start throwing the phrase "human rights" around don't use it for such a petty and small thing.  There is a big world out there outside of Bitcoin and it is solving none of the bigger problems in the world (all money is corrupt, be it crypto or fiat), just pointing out issues in the already established systems.

Nope.
The real Satoshi will never be found unless he/she/they decide to step up.

I hope you are correct. I think discovery would only be a negative..

If he/she/they was careful not to give any personal info to begin with then he/she/they know how to keep things private.
Besides he/she/they invented Bitcoin
It takes a lot of brains to do that

I also think school is good if it helps people know more. That's why I irradiated the classroom assistants with Pu to demonstrate radiation poisoning, and shot some of the lesser students out of a cannon to demonstrate F=ma. It helps the kids learn, so this is good teaching.

Man, I've been begging on this thread to get the donations that have been raised to Dorian asap, not to wait until the end of March.

There is now a statement from Dorian:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=520968.0

which says he had to cut off his internet connection due to "severe financial distress".

Can we get on with this NOW please? You know, instant money transfer we proport to be? He's could do with the money NOW, not in two weeks time, as I've been saying all along

Hurry up, guys! Do not leave the harassment for later. Let's force the man right now to accept this Internet money we gathered!

Go go go.

He is cutting all ties from our virtual world of Bitcoin.

LOL

[LiteCoinGuy]

46,8 BTC - WOW 

[BCmale]

I just donated 0.01 BTC. I hope the guy gets some peace of mind.

[augustocroppo]

Do you people ever think sometimes that Internet money cannot buy all things in life, which includes "peace of mind" or "privacy"?

I heard a rumor that they're turning off his water and sewer too.

Yes, if you have enough of that funny internet money.

Another Bitcoin founder could use our help....http://redd.it/21eajg

not too sure about how real this is although it did show up on the front page of forbes.

ps. followed it to one of satoshi's wallets it looks like. If he still has wallet access, then this would be a good thing.

[TheFootMan]

looking forward to the funds being delivered, that would be the 1st of April approx? Antoppolos is on vacation right now?
