It's being 'uploaded' in chunks. Kind of like a zip file that is split up into 'dvd' size chunks. Not until you have every single file can you unzip it. 31TB is an awful lot of data. My computer only has a 1 TB hard drive and it's only 20% full. 31 Terabytes is 31,000,000,000,000 bytes of data. One dual-layer DVD is about 7,000,000,000 bytes. We're talking over 4,400 DVD's worth of data
Spreading the encrypted data out, maybe, with the eventual release of a key. Wikileaks had something similar. An encrypted file that was spread far and wide. The release of the encryption key was the dead man's switch. I'm not sure if anything ever came of that.
It it has been sending out data since his “death” why haven’t we seen any? I’m not being sarcastic - genuine question

It would be pretty damn stupid to release everything in one giant 31TB file w/o parity files to recover from bit errors and other corrupted data.
thanks for breaking it down fren
This is all a movie. It’ll be released when the plot demands it. We’re just clearly not at that point yet.
Get on with it, already! I'm out of popcorn, and I have to pee!!!
Exactly right. This nothing burger isn't the climax of the movie.

Allegedly it’s why Assange is still alive. Who knows though?
