 		Seems as though they're on to me now. I finally got the standard warning email back from the France email,signed by future Declan.
Quote:
In light of the recent attacks, all communications are being monitored. As such, we know you have been exposed to confidential information about the UK division of FEA Global Biotechnology. We also know you have been in contact with known terrorist associates.


Your actions are in breach of the District 6 Memorial Act 2018 and the Sovereign Wealth Fund Trade Secrets Act 2015. Both of which can carry a minimum term of 35 years Debted Labour in Manx Prison.


However, we notice that this information has been accessed in the year 2014 so these laws will not apply to you. Not yet anyway. We do not want to take further action against you, but should communications continue, we will have no alternative.


You have been warned.



Declan Young,

 		Julie just emailed me.

I just received this email. Do you know who this man is?

I don't know what to think...

Begin forwarded message:

From: John Atkinson <jmauriceatkinson>
Date: 20 July 2014 14:30:21 BST
To: "juliejaneatkinson@gmail.com" <juliejaneatkinson>
Subject: Aimee

Julie,

Firstly, I wanted to offer you my condolences for what happened to your partner. I'm really sorry that it happened.

Anyway, you don't know me yet, but my name is John Atkinson. Aimee had been trying to track me down for the last few weeks. She'd sent several emails to this account, trying to get hold of me, but I'm ashamed to say, I ignored her.

That was until the other day, when she sent me an email stating that soon she would be in the hands of Abigail Whittaker. She'd never mentioned Abigail to me before, and until then I thought she was just somebody trying to lure me into a trap.

Abigail is a very close friend of mine. We've been working together, alongside our future selves, to try and build a bigger, more stable Resistance to the Tesseract. Together, we were always destined to be where the Resistance started, and given what we know of the future, we're doing everything we can to make sure that this time it doesn't fold. But recently, Abigail's communication from the future stopped. Unfortunately, there is only one reason that that would happen, and I knew that the Abigail I'm with, had no plans to be helping out anybody. Whatever plans Aimee had made with Abigail weren't legitimate. When Aimee told me she was going to her, she left me yours and another person's email address, just in case I ever responded. I've not been able to hear from Aimee (and I think we all know why) and I tried her friend first because I know how close you were to her. I didn't want to give you the added stress of receiving this email, during this difficult time. But I haven't been able to reach her friend either, so I'm sorry to have to reach out to you.

But I'm only doing as Aimee requested, and letting you know that I am out here. And I am doing all I can to make sure that the Tesseract campaign is derailed from the start.

You're not alone in this. If you want my help, or want to offer me yours, I'm here.

Again, I'm so sorry for your loss, Julie.

Sincerely,

John


This was not sent via the secure email address I made her open, but rather her gmail account.

It could be just because it was forwarded but Idon't trust anything anymore.

 		Wonderful Julie has opened a meaningful memorial blog post for Simon Orchard's victims. I, also, got almost the identical John Atkinson email that Julie got. (above)

Thought it was sent b/c I wasn't maneuvered into becoming one of Simon's quislings (sorry-not 100% sure of the English word) so reckon it's a valid email/avenue.

 		Tesseract House
Vote Tesseract sent me contact info for one William Nichols. Address shows up as a Cafe Nero S/SW of Regent's Park in London. Could be nothing, but that's apparently the location of "Tesseract House". I'm guessing Tesseract House is a Heinlein reference. ttfn

 		That's actually pretty interesting, because when I tap on the address link on my phone, google maps takes me to The Garage in London. Apparently it's a club/music venue?

 		That make's more sense than a coffee shop. I used google, too. It's probably not related, but after comic-con who knows, maybe we'll see more offline stuff. Anybody else get a remotely meaningful location?

I know I have to be careful, but I believe that if Aimee passed on your details then you must be one of the few who are genuine. I appreciate your concern.

Myself and Abigail are taking steps to ensure that our families are safe. Given what we know of her future, I've convinced her to flee the country, now while she still can. She's my oldest friend, and she's willing to die for this cause, but in the future she'll lose both her children at the hands of the Tesseract. That's not something I can see happen to her. She's taking her Lydia and Ben, and my wife and daughters with her. I'm staying here to see this through.

Until recently I was in contact with myself in the future. I'd been hiding out with Abigail after fleeing the FEA labs when I was discovered to be a Resistance plant. But I died, a month or so ago. I'd been ill you see, but being on the run, I couldn't check myself into any hospitals for treatment. One flash of my ID card and the Service would have been on me like flies round shit.

Anyway, I'm rambling now...but suffice to say, we're going to make sure Abigail is safe. She can't be lured into any future traps if she's not in the country. I'm only sorry we can't do anything for your friends Aimee, Zach and Chloe. My future self told me how important Zach and Aimee were to me, so even though I didn't know them in my time, I've kind of lost them too.

I can assure you that this going to stop as soon as I can make it. The Resistance under my (now in-the-know) watch, will be different. We won't fold under pressure and allow ourselves to be defeated. This time, we have a chance to do things right.


ETA: Have asked John to plse clarify how his ID card which he mentions above differs from his FEA "security chain" and am awaiting a reply.

In reply to my question John Atkinson (jmauriceatkinsonSPLATgmail.com) wrote:
Of course I can clarify that for you: From what I know from my future self, at FEA, all employees are given security chains, which is basically a way in and out of the building. Nobody gets in without one; it opens doors. FEA are careful to make sure that they have their own, high tech security system in place, which prevents any unwanted entry.

The ID cards however, are something people will be learning about soon. It's a new system that the Tesseract put in place, which eradicates all other forms of ID, in place of a simple card. The card tracks everything; from an individual's healthcare requirements, to education, down to what government services they require. Everything people do is recorded on their ID cards electronically. Perfect way for the Tesseract to keep an eye on everybody, don't you think? Complete control. If I'd wanted to get treatment for my illness they would have scanned my ID card at the hospital and that would be that. There's no way around it. At least not yet...maybe it's one of the things the New Resistance should work on.

I apologise if what I'm saying doesn't come across right sometimes, I don't realise how much different people know, so please call me out on anything that doesn't sit right with you. If I can clarify it for you, I will. We need to stick together as best we can.


EDIT: For the Penzu question below. It's working correctly with a new "Aimee" msg and the same PW (orwell)

 		Seems like it, since I can't access it to sync from the app on my phone.

i have finally procured a decent computer, so I am now at everyone's disposal for anything I can do.

I just realized today that the main page donottrustthetesseract.uk.com has TELEK POISON written inside the source code by noting the bolded letters, for example.

anyone want to take some time and sit down with me in the IRC chat or any other messenger and go pawing through everything from the beginning to make sure nothing was missed?


ALSO:

ask John about Jessop, Amandel? And Luke, too.

 		That's a real pity, then. The account must have been changed subsequent to my very recent login. Also, Julie has a meaningful blog update titled In the mail…
