Wikileaks not Wikipedia. Those two come up linked quite a bit but are not in anyway related in development or organization.

All they share is the Wiki name.

:up:

The storey continues,

The Bank of America has recently been buying up disparaging domain names , like bank-of-america-blows.com, apparently in preparation for the upcoming bank-leaks next month.

It would appear that they have something to hide.

On the Canadian front, the U.S.A. was upset at our lenient trade policies towards Cuba. Who would have guessed?

I'm very interested to see what 'leaks has on them.


Our tax dollars hard at work, I see. :rotfl2::-?

Thanks for the link, that's one of the clearest looks through the all murk of Assange's current situation - plus we now all know that he enjoys crayfish parties.

I would imagine that Wikileaks will avoid releasing anything embarrassing to government of Great Britain for the next little while.

Bergstrom's involvement certainly seems to be politically motivated. It will be interesting to see whether the Swedish prosecutors actually proceed with the charges or whether the questioning and investigation will see them dropped once again.

I think the deleted tweets and blogs a quite telling though in terms of the clumsy attempt to clean up evidence. Surely they know you can't erase anything from the internet once it's in the public domain.

:woot:Merry Christmas BTW :woot:

The point that jumped out at me was that the first warrant for his arrest on rape was issued only 15 min. into the initial interview with the two women - who at that time had only wanted to compel Assange to be tested for STD's. I guess it's no surprise that no effort, fair or foul, will be spared to punish him.

I'm hoping that Assange's extradition fails, because it seems that Swedens laws around sexual behavior are quite ill-defined at this time. That warrant had 3 charges for something that is best translated as "unfreedom"

Regardless of his fate, it looks like the cables will be released successfully. If fame was Assange's prime motivation, he has certainly achieved it.

Me too. From my perspective as an outsider, it amazes me that the American government takes all the flak for the current economic collapse while the banks skate away unscathed - at least that's how it reads in the papers up here in the Great White North.


Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (among others) is reporting that the full 250,00 cable package is now in the hands of a sixth news paper, Norway's Aftenposten; "a development sure to heighten U.S. government fears that the public release of some uncensored diplomatic cables could endanger informants' lives". :roll:

At least it's nice to know it's all about getting the truth out and not the money...oh wait http://au.news.yahoo.com/a/-/world/8...-5m-book-deal/

Follow the money :yep:

The plot has a lot of thickening to go through yet I reckon :hmmm:

So they wouldn't release anything like this then.

Web wars! :rock:

Always interesting to other news angles, but unfortunately, old news, but thanks for posted, :salute:

Well, I guess it must be true that some people in Wikileaks really don't like Julian.
