OpenLeaks. Openleaks (openleaks) Open Leaks – Wenn aus einer Idee eine Dienstleistung wird — Berlin Now! Berlin hat sich seit der Wende zu einer echten Weltstadt gemausert. Großflächige Bauprojekte wie der Potsdamer Platz und das Regierungsviertel haben das Gesicht der Stadt modernisiert und ihr neue pulsierende Zentren verschafft. Das Flair einer europäischen Metropole verbindet sich in Berlin mit der typischen lockeren Berliner Lebensart, die sich in der kulturellen Vielfalt der einzelnen Stadtviertel spiegelt.

Als Drehscheibe zwischen Ost und West hat Berlin auch an wirtschaftlicher Bedeutung gewonnen und übt als Business- wie als Bildungsstandort eine erhebliche Anziehungskraft aus, die weit über das brandenburgische Umland hinaus reicht. Dabei bietet Berlin eine hohe Lebensqualität, die sich nicht nur in einem reichhaltigen kulturellen Angebot äußert. Im Unterschied zu anderen Großstädten wie München und Hamburg sind in Berlin Mieten und Lebenshaltungskosten bezahlbar geblieben. Berlin hat sich als wichtiger Messestandort etabliert.

The news has been widely divulged by the press and reported on the web, but OpenLeaks’ launch – or at the very least its official online presence - should be finalised within this week. Presented as an alternative to WikiLeaks, founded by German Daniel Domscheit-Berg – who, under the name Daniel Schmitt, acted as spokesperson for the organization before being fired in September - the new platform is based on the same premise: allowing anonymous informants to provide sensitive information to the media, ensuring their complete safety throughout the whole process. Julian Assange’s former lieutenant agreed to enlighten us about his new project. When will OpenLeaks be operational? Everywhere, I’ve read that the site would be launched on Monday (December 13, ed), but it’s a big word.

We officially open the platform, but for now, it’s only to present our project. How many people will be working with you, and how will you operate? For now, we are ten, and the roles are not partitioned. WikiLeaks rival plans Monday launch after internal split, founders say. Daniel Domscheit-Berg, one of the founders of Openleaks.org, says WikLeaks founder Julian Assange (above) weakened his own organization. Openleaks.org says it plans to launch MondayAn ex-WikiLeaks member says Julian Assange's behavior was "dictatorial""The more, the better," a WikiLeaks spokesman says London (CNN) -- Arguing that WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has "weakened the organization," a newly organized rival to the website known for leaking official secrets says it will launch Monday.

The founders of Openleaks.org say they are former WikiLeaks members unhappy with the way WikiLeaks is being run under Assange. "It has weakened the organization," one of those founders, Daniel Domscheit-Berg says in a documentary airing Sunday night on Swedish television network SVT. He said WikiLeaks has become "too much focused on one person, and one person is always much weaker than an organization. " In an e-mail to CNN, Domscheit-Berg said the group hopes to launch its site Monday. Daniel Domscheit-Berg.

He is the author of Inside WikiLeaks: My Time with Julian Assange at the World's Most Dangerous Website (2011).[2] After leaving WikiLeaks, he announced plans in January 2011 to open a new website for anonymous online leaks called OpenLeaks. In 2011, he was named by Foreign Policy magazine in its FP Top 100 Global Thinkers, with Sami Ben Gharbia and Alexey Navalny. In his response to the Best Idea question for that article Domscheit-Berg stated Occupy Wall Street.[6] WikiLeaks[edit] Domscheit-Berg was highlighted in the Sveriges Television programme WikiRebels - The Documentary, released in the second week of December 2010.[11] OpenLeaks[edit] Book: Inside WikiLeaks[edit]

Daniel Domscheit-Berg – Inside Wikileaks : netzpolitik.org. Der Netzpolitik-Podcast Folge 102 ist ein rund 45 Minuten langes Gespräch mit Daniel Domscheit-Berg, der bis vergangene Woche den meisten nur als Daniel Schmitt von Wikileaks bekannt war. In dem Gespräch unterhalten wir uns über seine 2,5 Jahre Mitarbeit bei Wikileaks und natürlich die jüngsten Vorfälle, die zu seiner Suspendierung und Rückzug aus dem Projekt geführt haben.

Dass er nicht mehr dabei ist, konnte man vergangenes Wochenende bei Spiegel-Online und im Spiegel lesen. Im Netzpolitik-Podcast äußert er sich ausführlicher über die Hintergründe, die Meinungsverschiedenheiten innerhalb des Projektes, wie dort zusammengearbeitet wurde und wie der derzeitige Zustand ist. Wir unterhalten uns auch darüber, was mit den bei Wikileaks hochgeladenen, aber in den vergangenen Monaten nicht veröffentlichten Dokumenten und Spenden passiert und wieso die Plattform momentan nicht mehr funktioniert. Wir wollen netzpolitik.org weiter ausbauen. Former WikiLeaks Members Form "Openleaks" As WikiLeaks and its leader Julian Assange face mounting legal issues, key members of the project are reportedly jumping ship.

According to the Swedish news site DN.se, the new project, dubbed Openleaks, is going to launch Monday. An insider told DN.se, "The two organizations are similar in that aspect that both are focusing on providing means for whistleblowers to anonymously provide the public with information. " Where the two services will differ, it appears, is both from a management and publishing perspective.

There were reports of internal strife within WikLeaks even before Assange's arrest earlier this week. In October, The New York Times published a profile on Assange with some accounts from former members of the project. We don't know if any of those defectors are members of Openleaks, but the criticism lobbed against the controversial figure is the same. An insider told DN.se: "All editorial control and responsibility rests with the publishing organization.

The source continued: Openleaks - Daniel Domscheit-Berg / Presentation at 27C3 on December 30, 2010. Transcript of OpenLeaks video. Daniel Domscheit-Berg, formerly of Wikileaks and now working on the OpenLeaks project, recently gave a presentation at 27C3. Because the talk is dense and the video long, I had it transcribed today.

It’s long and, in the manner of long, complex talks, it isn’t a perfect, linear read. I haven’t cleaned it up, or read or analyzed it fully yet, but it seems important, so I am posting the transcript here, as raw material. Daniel Domscheit-Berg’s talk on OpenLeaks Hi. First of all, I’m happy to see so many people that have come, even though it’s on such short notice and in competition with the security nightmares talk. So it’s good to see you all and it’s good to see that you have an interest in I guess the topic I should have been talking about from the beginning on. Just one short correction.

So actually, now I realize that I do not have the slides on that screen here. So what is the problem? So there are a couple of reasons for that. Then, there’s the whole review part. There are NGOs. Is Openleaks The Next Haystack? As everyone who’s even half-awake knows by now, a bunch of people who used to work on Wikileaks have got together to work on Openleaks. From what I hear, Openleaks is going to be so much better than Wikileaks – it will have no editorial role, it will strongly protect people who submit leaks, it’s not about the people who run it, it’ll be distributed and encrypted. But where’s the design to back up this rhetoric? Where are the security reviews from well-known authorities?

They seem to be missing. This sounds very familiar indeed. Of course, Openleaks may be fine, but I strongly suggest that those who are working on it publish their plan and subject it to scrutiny before they put contributors at risk. As always, I offer my services in this regard. Share This. WikiLeaks Defector Explains What's Wrong With WikiLeaks And Why He's Creating A New Site Called "OpenLeaks" Anonymous retaliates against HBGary espionage. Aaronbarr (aaronbarr) Image eJBt. Em14R. Facing WikiLeaks Threat, Bank of America Plays Defense. Openleaks: Timid in the face of power? Sunday, February 27, 2011 WikiLeaks has announced it will pursue legal action against disgruntled former employee Daniel Domscheit-Berg, whose recently released book, Inside WikiLeaks, slams Julian Assange's leadership and character in a series of allegations.

Some of the allegations appear serious. Others are hopelessly trivial. Domscheit-Berg told AFP that Assange would "boast about how many children he had fathered in various parts of the world" and that Assange's "main criterion for a woman was simple. She had to be young. Preferably younger than 22. " He also accuses Assange of being power-obsessed. It’s important to note that Domscheit-Berg gives no evidence for these claims. "We used to be best friends, Julian and I," writes Domscheit-Berg. Domscheit-Berg also bemoans occasions when Assange would drink the last of his hot chocolate or eat his canned meat.

These claims also distract from more serious implications of comments made by Domscheit-Berg. From GLW issue 870.
