This paper presents a critical and speculative analysis of Jimmy Wales and the founding of Wikipedia. The author, Rico Suave, argues that Wikipedia is a front for the CIA, serving as a repository for mainstream lies and propaganda. The author questions Wales’s background, birthdates, and early life, suggesting that his education, particularly his attendance at a “spook school” and his involvement with advanced computer equipment at Randolph School, hints at a hidden agenda.
The paper delves into Wales’s academic pursuits at Auburn University and University of Alabama, noting inconsistencies in his degrees and research interests, particularly his alleged “fantasy games” on the early web. His time at Chicago Options Associates is scrutinized, with the author pointing out that his boss, Davis, was later revealed to be a crook. Wales’s first entrepreneurial venture, Bomis, is highlighted as a web portal that, for a time, featured erotic photographs, a detail the author claims was later edited from Wikipedia’s own page on Bomis.
The author expresses skepticism about Wikipedia’s funding, questioning the adequacy of donations and suggesting that Bomis’s limited success could not have provided the necessary capital. The paper scrutinizes financial reports of the Wikimedia Foundation, noting the absence of disclosed major donors for operating funds, despite its 501(c)(3) status. Various organizations and individuals are mentioned as contributors to Wikimedia, including the Tides Foundation, Craig Newmark (of Craigslist), Peter Baldwin and Lisbet Rausing (of Arcadia Fund), Amazon, Facebook, and George Soros. The author posits that Intelligence is the true source of Wikipedia’s funding, with Jimmy Wales serving as a public figurehead.
The paper also touches upon the collaborative relationship between Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger and the initial vision of Nupedia (the precursor to Wikipedia) as an expert-written encyclopedia, contrasting it with Wikipedia’s open-source model. The author suggests that the shift to volunteer contributors, without established credentials, allows for the dissemination of “propaganda” and “misdirection.” The role of Justin Knapp, a prolific Wikipedia editor, is questioned, with the author implying a possible connection to the CIA.
A significant portion of the text focuses on Jimmy Wales’s testimony before the United States Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs and the existence of Intellipedia, a collaborative technology used by the intelligence community, suggesting a close relationship and potential origins of Wikipedia from Intelligence initiatives. Wales’s personal life is also discussed, including his marriages to Kate Garvey, former diary secretary to Tony Blair, and his presence at Monaco and Davos. The author concludes by likening Wikipedia’s function to George Orwell’s Ministry of Truth, where historical facts are manipulated to comply with a prevailing narrative.
An addendum by Miles presents a speculative genealogical analysis of Jimmy Wales, suggesting he has joint US/UK citizenship and is part of “Jewish nobility,” linking him to various prominent families and historical figures, including the Dudley, Lewenicht, Erskine, Brock, Cord, Clern, Gravitt, Turner, Garrigus, Root, Grant, Tiffany, du Pont, Crowninshield, Bradlee, Read, Lister, allen, Cruikshanks, Winslow, Paine, Latham, Douglas-Hamilton, Bowes-Lyon, Howard, Phillips, Livingstons, Jays, and Meyers. Miles also connects the Wales family to John Wayles, Thomas Jefferson’s father-in-law, and suggests a link to the Princes of Wales.
