One day, I would like to meet a Wikipedia enthusiast willing to work on the OKC page and the Spatz page, in exchange for access to a large amount of data (from the already closed belgian/french trials) that could significantly enrich the legal timeline, as well as many facts that are completely unknown to the public.

Unfortunately, adding content to Wikipedia when it is done under the name “OKCinfo”, our Wikipedia account — which allowed us to demonstrate that the main editor of the OKC page for 17 years was none other than the general secretary of the OKC sect — is far more strictly controlled than when it was the sect itself editing its own page and that of its guru.

In fact, it is very difficult to find people to collaborate with so that added content is not systematically classified as biased or lacking sources. This is all the more difficult because it is almost impossible to provide “proof” in the Wikipedia sense, since no media outlet follows this case over time. Whether it is Le Monde, Mediapart, or others, no one really cares about this case, either in France or in Belgium.

As a result, the existing articles are extremely thin, even though we have a large amount of documentation, including original sources coming directly from the sect.

How can you create properly sourced links on a case that interests almost no one, apart from a handful of journalists — two, in my opinion — who have actually worked seriously on this file?

Today, the OKC page almost presents the sect as being caught in a legal “turmoil” despite itself, and an entire part of the legal content has been removed or moved to the guru Spatz’s page, as if he were the only person implicated.

The OKC Wikipedia page does not at all reflect the complexity of the legal and technical reasons that led to the recognition of a form of “irresponsibility” or “influence” affecting the OKC leadership in various rulings, without in any way clearing them — far from it.

In reality, if the OKC leadership was not convicted, it is not for the reasons presented on the page. If they are “free” today, it is largely because they helped shape, over more than twenty years, the absence of meaningful legal outcomes: by taking advantage of investigative shortcomings, the silence of victims, and the expiration of reasonable time limits. In that sense, OKC, just like Spatz, has shaped the outcome of this case as much as — if not more than — the judges and prosecutors who have handled it over the past forty years.

But nobody cares.

Un jour, j’aimerais rencontrer un·e passionné·e de Wikipedia prêt·e à travailler sur la page OKC et la page Spatz, en échange d’un accès à un grand nombre de données (des procès belges-français aujourdh’ui terminé) qui pourraient enrichir considérablement la chronologie juridique, ainsi que de nombreux faits totalement inconnus du public.

Malheureusement, ajouter du contenu sur Wikipedia lorsque cela est fait sous le nom « OKCinfo », notre compte Wikipedia — qui nous a permis de démontrer que l’éditeur principal de la page OKC pendant 17 ans n’était autre que le secrétaire général de la secte — est bien plus soumis à contrôle que lorsque c’était la secte elle-même qui éditait sa propre page ainsi que celle de son gourou.

En fait, il est très difficile de trouver des personnes avec qui collaborer afin que le contenu ajouté ne soit pas systématiquement qualifié de biaisé ou insuffisamment sourcé. Ce point est d’autant plus complexe qu’il est quasiment impossible d’apporter des « preuves » au sens de Wikipedia, dans la mesure où aucun média ne s’intéresse à cette affaire sur la durée. Que ce soit Le Monde, Médiapart ou d’autres, le sujet est largement ignoré, en France comme en Belgique.

Par conséquent, les articles existants sont très maigres, alors même que nous disposons de nombreuses archives, y compris des sources originales émanant directement de la secte.

Comment établir des liens correctement sourcés sur une affaire qui n’intéresse presque personne, en dehors de quelques journalistes — deux, à ma connaissance — qui ont réellement travaillé sur ce dossier ?

Aujourd’hui, la page OKC présente presque la secte comme prise dans une « tourmente » juridique malgré elle, et toute une partie des éléments juridiques a été supprimée ou déplacée vers la page du gourou Spatz, comme s’il était l’unique personne mise en cause.

La page Wikipedia OKC ne reflète absolument pas la complexité des raisons juridiques et techniques ayant conduit à la reconnaissance d’une forme d’« irresponsabilité » ou d’« emprise » concernant la direction d’OKC dans différents jugements, sans pour autant la blanchir — loin de là.

En réalité, si la direction d’OKC n’a pas été condamnée, ce n’est pas pour les raisons présentées sur la page. Si elle est aujourd’hui « libre », c’est en grande partie parce qu’elle a contribué, pendant plus de vingt ans, à l’absence de résultats juridiques probants : en tirant parti des lacunes de l’instruction, du silence des victimes, ainsi que des délais raisonnables dépassés. En ce sens, l’OKC, tout comme Spatz, a façonné l’issue de cette affaire autant — sinon plus — que les magistrats et procureurs qui s’y sont succédé pendant quarante ans.

Mais tout le monde s’en fout.

Cult Dynamics at the Scale of Rogue Democracies

My ActivityPub “reader” aka the view where I can check my home timeline and also explore public instance timeline is ugly but it works and it has this feeling that I built it, so if I’m not happy with it, I’m the only responsible to improve it.

Still… its an odd feeling that this is my fediverse home now and there is no coming back !

Real-time monitoring and analysis platform for open-source intelligence The OSINTukraine initiative is a specialized endeavor dedicated to open-source intelligence (OSINT) pertaining to Ukraine. Its primary objectives are the collection, archiving, translation, analysis, and dissemination of critical information related to the ongoing conflict with Ukraine. Utilizing advanced OSINT techniques, the project offers in-depth insights into current events, potential security threats, and other relevant issues concerning Ukraine. This is achieved by monitoring numerous Russian telegram channels, followed by meticulous filtering, categorization, and archiving of data streams. These efforts are further enhanced by various OSINT analysis projects incubated within the initiative." Current sub-projects War crimes archive Drones research Location related alerts system

Chardons Bleus is a non-profit association created to raise and manage funds so that people victims of the Ogyen Kunzang Chöling cult and its criminal leader Robert Spatz can effectively access the justice system. The association exists to pool resources, cover legal and procedural costs, and provide a collective framework that makes long and complex judicial actions financially possible. It also acts as a point of coordination between contributors, legal representatives, and supporting professionals, with the clear purpose of enabling accountability through lawful proceedings that individuals could not sustain alone.

BuzzWorkers is a long running personal project dedicated to curating, preserving, and publishing independent electronic music and DJ mixes spanning Techno, Electro, Trip Hop, Acid, and related experimental genres from the 1990s to today. Over more than twenty years, I designed, operated, migrated, and maintained the full technical stack behind the platform, evolving alongside the web itself. This included working with multiple generations of hosting, audio tooling, content management systems, databases, automation scripts, streaming and download infrastructures, and more recently federated platforms such as the fediverse and Funkwhale. Beyond music production and curation, the project taught me long term system design, data preservation, platform migration, interoperability, and the tradeoffs between centralized and decentralized architectures, while managing large media collections and making them reliably accessible on the web for community and educational use.

OKCinfo was launched at the end of 2015 as a desperate last minute attempt in a 20 year long existing trial launched by the Belgian state against the OKC cult in 1997. The 23 of us – supported by more than 40 other former OKC-born young children – have since been supported by talented lawyers ready to champion our cause. The Belgian chapter of the justice battle against OKC was concluded in 2022, the pedocriminal Robert Spatz was condemned to a 5 years suspended sentence. The victims decided to engage a new Justice battle in france under the banner of Association Chardons Bleus
