Main Page - WikiSpooks Leaky World: a playable theory Our Preface Julian Assange's short essay is an intriguing theory of conspiracy (as opposed to conspiracy theory) that effectively and concisely describes the drama of transnational power in the information age. It's an obscure, strategical text from 2006 that assumes a new relevance in the light of the massive leaks of 2010. However, we believe it has several flaws: 1) It is a byproduct of the leftist idea of class consciousness achieved via enlightenment. 2) It is informed by hacker culture and shares with it all the shortcomings of a technocentric thought. 3) It abstracts the concept of authoritarian power too much, ignoring intra-capitalist tensions and the conflicting national and corporate interests that are arguably the main reason for secrecy. Said that, we are firmly against the criminalization of Wikileaks and its founder.

US diplomats spied on UN leadership | World news Washington is running a secret intelligence campaign targeted at the leadership of the United Nations, including the secretary general, Ban Ki-moon and the permanent security council representatives from China, Russia, France and the UK. A classified directive which appears to blur the line between diplomacy and spying was issued to US diplomats under Hillary Clinton's name in July 2009, demanding forensic technical details about the communications systems used by top UN officials, including passwords and personal encryption keys used in private and commercial networks for official communications. It called for detailed biometric information "on key UN officials, to include undersecretaries, heads of specialised agencies and their chief advisers, top SYG [secretary general] aides, heads of peace operations and political field missions, including force commanders" as well as intelligence on Ban's "management and decision-making style and his influence on the secretariat".
