Gotta admit, soon after lolzing at Harry Harrison I scrambled to okcupid to make sure I'd deleted that profile that I stopped using 5 years ago.

Oh ok maybe you can set it in yr settings then cos mine isnt viewable logged out.

OK, it's been long enough that I'm starting to lose the thread a little. So this recent cache of cables - they all came from the same source, right? The Brad Manning moron? Did he leak the "collateral murder" thing, too? But someone else leaked the (unpublished) bank stuff, right? Just wondering, because it seems like all this Wikileaks stuff has originated from just one or two sources, and it is probably safe to assume not too many people are lining up to leak more, especially now that security has been tightened. Short of outright illegal hacking/spying on Wikileaks' part, does this mean the whole organization is bound to wither and die, absent complicit conspirators with access to good stuff, both of which must be in relatively short supply?

I'm not actually sure that manning is definitively responsible for the cables, actually. the video, yes, and I think that's why he's in jail right now. but I can't check, ON IPHONE.

brad manning, more like BAD manning

that moron

"absent complicit conspirators with access to good stuff, both of which must be in relatively short supply"

Not sure why you would assume that either of these things are true.

yeah. even if the military is tightening down (no thumb drives, etc), there's still loads of "interesting" and relatively insecure data out there for WL to publish. like, u know, the gawker database (heyo!)

I think it's logical to assume at this point there is a relatively finite amount of a) readily accessible juicy US government stuff that b) more than a handful of people are willing to go to jail to leak. Even if the US remains lax and less than vigilant, which is possible/likely, who is so righteous they'd happily suffer the US's wrath? Now, sure, there's tons of non-gov't stuff to leak around the globe, and in some ways that's more interesting to me (the bank stuff sounds tantalizing). But the government stuff is what gets the headlines. So far.

While I can definitely see your point, I also see the potential for this case to inspire a lot of people who now see the gov't as a free-speech-suppressing tyrannical empire and create a culture of thirst for transparency.

xp I think that except in rare circumstances people who see the government as a free-speech-suppressing tyrannical empire aren't the same people who get access to classified material

I think all the diplomatic cables and the Iraq stuff came from Manning. They've been pretty slowly releasing it and they can probably stretch it out for a while longer. Manning isnt the only leaker, just the most famous one.

hoo boy, tariq ali, yvonne ridley, john pilger... real a-list bros to have in your corner

Better them than Jonah Goldberg, Sarah Palin and Bill Kristol.

So, you're Julian Assange, released on bail: are you happy or sad to go free to discover SNL's arch, evil Bond-villain parody?

not sure we *have* to choose between hard-right and hard-"left" (yvonne ridley works for iranian state tv) but ok

not sure why assange's "supporters" are even relevant in any way whatsoever

he's also got Anonymous, 4chan, Ron Paul, etc. i don't really care tbh

can't believe assange killed richard holbrooke

so his livejournal leaked huh

just saw an allright documentary, "wikirebels":
"From summer 2010 until now, Swedish Television has been following the secretive media network WikiLeaks and its enigmatic Editor-in-Chief Julian Assange.

Reporters Jesper Huor and Bosse Lindquist have traveled to key countries where WikiLeaks operates, interviewing top members, such as Assange, new Spokesperson Kristinn Hrafnsson, as well as people like Daniel Domscheit-Berg who now is starting his own version - Openleaks.org!

Where is the secretive organization heading? Stronger than ever, or broken by the US? Who is Assange: champion of freedom, spy or rapist? What are his objectives? What are the consequences for the internet? "

couple of notable items in there: inside conflict assange vs domscheit-berg and wikileaks strategy to distribute the massive amount of information they have to optimize the journalistic work that can be done with this / protect innocent ppl from harm.
