George Knapp finally has a very well done website and it's a Must see

This is nothing short of awesome, because it has so many "oldies but goldies" and although I have seen a few things of what is offered, it leaves mountains of historical stories and videos of interviews I have never seen that are very valuable, especially because many of them confirm just how often the public is lied to by officials.

It's very disappointing to hear that the UK/EU authorities have instituted the squashing of rights for the public there to even view the web site. They have crossed the big red line IMO.

Use a VPN, even if it is only the one in the Opera browser...and you're in.

For those EU members that DO want to browse the site, as fromtheskydown said, just install Opera browser, it has a built in vpn that works for sites like these.

Opera's VPN doesn't work with all sites, as some still identify the traffic as coming from an EU country, but I can confirm that it works with this one.

Another tip, use startpage.com. Search for the site, then click the Anonymous View link on the search result.

You're welcome 😄

Edit: Dammit, that didn't work. Curse my smugness! Back to expressvpn for me then. Sorry!


Edit 2: Actually, I'm kind of right. Go to startpage.com. click the settings button top right then select Only connect to US servers. Go back to the search and follow instructions above. Presto - it'll use a US proxy 😄

upon first look, very impressive. I will be back to give it a more thorough going over again soon.

It also says "Our European visitors are important to us".

Probably just some silly bureaucratic burp or error.

Cant see why information presented by George Knapp would be restricted in the EU and the UK.

Hola Chrome VPN seems to be working from my end(UK).

It's not the most reputable VPN all the same.

a reply to: Springer

That’s great! I have bookmarked it. I see many things I will enjoy on there, thanks!

GDPR
Read up on it.
Only EU countries , Indian , and Canadian websites are sort of exempt internally.(they have already implemented the protections as outlined for them .)
All other countries have to enable a various , costly amount of protections or pay an egregious fine for each violation.

The stating "Our European visitors are important to us" is put in place by nearly all websites that are not compliant as a token of appreciation until they decide to implement EU GDPR restrictions on foreign communication .

Cheers for the info, i did not know that.

The last few minutes of this recent BBC documentary on 'Russian UFOs' shows Knapp discussing his visits to Russia and some documents he got from a guy named Sokolov. I'd sure like to see those, if he posts them on his website.

Perhaps we ask too many awkward questions. (That was a joke - in case this post is looking deep into the 'thread drift' bucket.)

It sounds like a fascinating site - could someone copy and paste a small sample of what Europeans/Brits are missing out on?

Thanks in advance.

Obviously LOTS of people don't understand what it takes to launch a global website these days...

The EU has, rightly or wrongly, created LOTS of restrictions on the data in and out of a web viewer's browser within the EU.

NextStar, the company that owns MsteryWire.com, is trying to get it right, GIVE THEM A MINUTE, they literally launched in the U.S. a week ago.

George has NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS Technical aspect, HELLO?

He is an investigative journalist, not a web engineer or a lawyer.
sigh...

It takes LOTS of money and even more TIME for legal teams to get the clearance for the EU's grander restrictions on websites...

CHILL.

Just spent the last 30mins mulling around and I've got to say, it's very good, really easy to navigate from the outset and their search function is pretty good too. An absolute plethora of info on all things UFO and paranormal / military projects and all things in between - WOW!

You should put a link to his page on our home page and vice-versa, worthy first addition IMO.

Either way, good stuff, really glad you bought this to our (my) attention.

Cheers

No collusion No obstruction ! lol

Ima check it now!

It seems I was in violation of the T&C - if so, I'm sorry and apologize. I don't know HOW I was in violation thereof though, all I tried to do is protect the interests of everybody, including those of mr Knapp.

The issue I tried to bring afront was that mr Knapp is unintentionally risking being sued over this. It is not sufficient to block users based on their IP addresses. If a person from the EU accesses mr Knapps site - which he can, using a VPN or otherwisely spoofing his IP address- he still is a EU citizen and therefore is protected by the GDPR. And in that case, the EU can indeed take steps to sue mr Knapp. Yes, sue mr Knapp, not the techies that work for him. The mere fact that mr Knapp has hired people to do work for him does not necessarily relief him of his responsibilities.

site is not available for Scotsmen! thats a conspiracy in iself

Hopefully once we leave the EU thatll get rid of this GDDPR nonsense.

a reply to: JimOberg

I've seen the whole collection it's pretty intense stuff. More intense (to me anyway) is the fact George smuggled classified SOVIET documents out of the country, if he'd have been caught with that stuff I'm pretty sure he'd have been in a Gulag and not winning Emmy or Murrow Awards.

I know he plans to put most, if not all of the "Russian Saga" up eventually, it's a big story, I'll ask if he's going to put the actual docs up or not...

a reply to: ForteanOrg

George doesn't own the site or hire the techies, the company he works for does. They are a huge media company (they own hundreds of TV stations in the U.S.) with a legal staff, I'd bet they're on top of it.
