Secrecy is the problem, not leakers - Opinion

WikiLeaks is now at the centre of a global battle between media and those in power but what's new about what Julian Assange is doing? http://sofiaecho.com/2010/12/23/1016331_secrecy-is-the-problem-not-leakers

In fact, other tech companies may also have received similar WikiLeaks-related requests. But what is unusual in this story is that Twitter resisted. Which raises an interesting question: Assuming that Twitter was not the only company to have been served a secret subpoena order, why was it the only company that fought back? The answer might lie in the figure leading Twitter’s legal efforts, Alexander Macgillivray (right), an incredibly mild mannered (really) but sharp-as-a-tack cyber law expert.

Wikileaks, The Pirate Party, And The Future Of The Internet

How to save Julian Assange's movement from itself. American diplomacy seems to have survived Wikileaks’s “attack on the international community,” as Hillary Clinton so dramatically characterized it, unscathed.

Dear Government of Sweden ...

December 16th, 2010 9:17 PM By Michael Moore Dear Swedish Government:
I attend a lot of conferences on media and technology -- indeed, they might actually be the biggest growth sector of the media -- but the one I attended this past weekend was one of the most fascinating I've been to in quite a while. Entitled " A Symposium on WikiLeaks and Internet Freedom ," the one-day event was sponsored by the Personal Democracy Forum and was moderated by the group's Micah Sifry and Andrew Rasiej. The WikiLeaks story is an ever-shifting one -- witness the latest twists of the Air Force blocking its personnel from accessing more than 25 news sites that have posted material released by WikiLeaks, and the shocking treatment of Bradley Manning, the U.S. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/arianna-huffington/the-media-gets-it-wrong-o_b_797436.html

The Today show interviewed WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange on Friday after his release from prison on bail Thursday afternoon. During the interview, he described his recent court appearances as "not the beginning of the end, rather it is merely the end of the beginning." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/12/17/julian-assange-interview-_n_798140.html

Le Web . I’m still unclear on the unique selling point of Europe’s “leading technology conference”, and yet here I am, for the third year in a row, hanging out in a snow-bound venue four hundred miles from the centre of Paris, watching a succession of American entrepreneurs being interviewed – in English – by journalists who have flown in specially from California.
