Anonymous is mobilising to support Wikileaks.
Don't know if there's a thread yet on this, but download the insurance document, put them on CD's, thumb sticks, etc. If Wikileaks or Assange are taken out, then there's a whole bunch of people out there that will distribute the key to unlock the file.

Assange is a target. Authorities world wide are trying to "destroy" Wikileaks by shutting down and/or attacking servers.

The torrent is the cablegate/warlogs/wikileaks site, encrypted. If Assange and his team are shutdown or arrested, the method for decrypting this file will be released so people can continue hosting it.

Interesting that since that ginger pingpingpingping in Canberra was called out publically, the AG is now insisting that Assange is welcome home anytime and will get consular assistance. Fuck you Gillard you smelly pingpingpingping hole.

Until Assange is absolved of his current charges, it's most definitely too early to call it a victory for the Internet, dude. If Assange goes away then it will be a helluvva blow to Wikileaks and to the future of free speech and unfiltered internet.

Being able to torrent+download the information just proves a point; we need Wikileaks to be around in the first place to release the information first.

The thing is, the UK knows where he is, he told them. He has been co-operating with them wholly. The "charges" are minor offences only applicable to Swedish law, and are just small fines.

If anything were to happen to Assange, it will create an even bigger shit-storm than if he just released the documents without hassle - The world press would not let a journalist be knocked off because he was reporting the story he was given, especially now with the global attention he's recieving. I'm hoping this is the beginning of something huge.

They chew through more money in fending off lawsuits and counter-suits in a week than most of us make in a year.

The real threat here is that if they succeed in putting Assange away then it sets a (conceptual and actual) legal precedent whereupon foreign countries can charge you under another country's laws, you don't get a say in what you can do, and you don't get a say in how it pans out. Go to jail, do not pass go.

And don't count on journalists of the "world press" letting "one of their own" doing anything, either. They'll write a story on it and then move onto whatever new influenza strain is going to apparently cause the apocalypse, and most of the public is going to forget about it apart from a bunch of slacktivists on the internet... oh, and 4chan =P

Dear Prime Minister,

We note with concern the increasingly violent rhetoric directed towards Julian Assange of WikiLeaks.

“We should treat Mr Assange the same way as other high-value terrorist targets: Kill him,” writes conservative columnist Jeffrey T Kuhner in the Washington Times.

William Kristol, former chief of staff to vice president Dan Quayle, asks, “Why can’t we use our various assets to harass, snatch or neutralize Julian Assange and his collaborators, wherever they are?”

“Why isn’t Julian Assange dead?” writes the prominent US pundit Jonah Goldberg.

“The CIA should have already killed Julian Assange,” says John Hawkins on the Right Wing News site.

Sarah Palin, a likely presidential candidate, compares Assange to an Al Qaeda leader; Rick Santorum, former Pennsylvania senator and potential presidential contender, accuses Assange of “terrorism”.

And so on and so forth.

Such calls cannot be dismissed as bluster. Over the last decade, we have seen the normalisation of extrajudicial measures once unthinkable, from ‘extraordinary rendition’ (kidnapping) to ‘enhanced interrogation’ (torture).

In that context, we now have grave concerns for Mr Assange’s wellbeing.

Irrespective of the political controversies surrounding WikiLeaks, Mr Assange remains entitled to conduct his affairs in safety, and to receive procedural fairness in any legal proceedings against him.

As is well known, Mr Assange is an Australian citizen.

We therefore call upon you to condemn, on behalf of the Australian Government, calls for physical harm to be inflicted upon Mr Assange, and to state publicly that you will ensure Mr Assange receives the rights and protections to which he is entitled, irrespective of whether the unlawful threats against him come from individuals or states.

We urge you to confirm publicly Australia’s commitment to freedom of political communication; to refrain from cancelling Mr Assange's passport, in the absence of clear proof that such a step is warranted; to provide assistance and advocacy to Mr Assange; and do everything in your power to ensure that any legal proceedings taken against him comply fully with the principles of law and procedural fairness.

A statement by you to this effect should not be controversial – it is a simple commitment to democratic principles and the rule of law.

We believe this case represents something of a watershed, with implications that extend beyond Mr Assange and WikiLeaks. In many parts of the globe, death threats routinely silence those who would publish or disseminate controversial material. If these incitements to violence against Mr Assange, a recipient of Amnesty International’s Media Award, are allowed to stand, a disturbing new precedent will have been established in the English-speaking world.

In this crucial time, a strong statement by you and your Government can make an important difference.

We look forward to your response.

There's a fair chance this is going to wind up being a bit like the whole napster/limewire/pirate bay shenanigans but on a greater scale and possibly will have an effect on how organisations work. There's no way the authorities involved are going to track down every single person involved in making Wikileaks work. Wikileaks might get shut down but something else similar will pop up. As long as there's classified information to be had people will try and get their hands on it.

Things are classified for a reason and it's human nature to not like having things hidden from you.

The ABC is really getting behind this...


The global war on WikiLeaks and the demonisation of Julian Assange is troubling because governments are playing so fast and loose with accusations of criminal wrongdoing.

In so doing, governments have failed to make sense of gaps in the law and the need for law reform to adequately protect sensitive information.

As I have written elsewhere, it is hard to see how Julian Assange or WikiLeaks has broken any Australian law. It is even doubtful whether United States laws have been broken, although at best there may be an action for breach of copyright in US government documents.

While it is a crime for US government employees to unlawfully disclose confidential information, there would only be a case against WikiLeaks if it had induced or solicited another person to leak material. That might distinguish the conduct of WikiLeaks from other media (from the New York Times to the BBC) that have simply republished documents.

So far, however, the US has not provided any evidence of such conduct. Even then, it might be necessary to consider whether it was legitimate media reporting in the public interest. Different countries take different legal approaches to that issue.

Info pirates seek an alternative internet




After dumping thousands of secret US diplomatic cables in the public domain last week, WikiLeaks (http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg19325865.500-how-to-leak-a-secret-and-not-get-caught.html) ended up losing its web hosting company – twice – and its wikileaks.org web domain to boot as providers got cold feet about its content. But a plan being hatched by fellow travellers in the file-sharing community may shield the controversial data dumper from such takedowns in future.

There is multiple files around with different staff. The file available off of the "pirate bay" is just one file. So it contains a % of cables/documents contained by WikiLeaks.

All are heavily encrypted.

If Assange or any member of staff go down - they are to be extracted and information spread.

My understanding anyway. So none of the other files have become available yet.

Dan - It has leaked a portion of the documents, just not ALL of them that they have just gotten their hands on. Hence why multiple "insurance files" exist. The threat was that if Assange or any member of staff go down, it will ALL be leaked onto the net.

I am assuming that everything they get their hands on they don't just chuck up. But the stuff they have at the moment they probably haven't even looked through completely yet.

Mad_Aussie - momentum is huge yes, but doesn't stop things like that from happening.

End of the day, people are picking up speed and waking up, more documentaries are being pushed throwing theories in the air about how we exist, what really goes on, what the next steps are. More information is becoming available bringing forward an age of enlightenment. More people are consciously aware of what is around them... it is interesting times ahead...

Oh. My. God. The mainstream media are actually, and intentionally, pushing the truth on this one...
The term "whistle-blower" is usually used to describe someone within, say, a corporation or government agency who risks a career to speak out against corruption or fraud. It may just seem like a semantic issue, but how the media describe WikiLeaks can affect public perceptions. A whistle-blower is probably viewed positively, as an individual speaking out against wrongdoing.

The Cutline has described WikiLeaks as an "online whistle-blower" in some previous posts. But perhaps if anyone's going to be described as a whistle-blower, it would more accurately be Bradley Manning, the imprisoned Army private believed to have leaked documents to WikiLeaks, because he allegedly committed the action while in the military.

The insurance file is out there, from reading online, even with a large P2P brute-force cracking network, the encryption would take years and years to crack. The thing is, like anything, the file WILL be cracked eventually and what is inside will be available to everyone.

This leads me to believe Assange plans to release the password regardless, so what is in the file? Is it a decoy? Or does it include documentation about the GFC and US bailouts that will expose and crumble the US for good?

I've even read the true conspiracy theorists stating that this is all a hoax similar to 911, giving big brother reason to censor & control the internet much like how 911 was used to remove civil liberties... Of course I think that is going a bit far, but the can of worms is definitely open!

I've even read the true conspiracy theorists stating that this is all a hoax similar to 911, giving big brother reason to censor & control the internet much like how 911 was used to remove civil liberties... Of course I think that is going a bit far, but the can of worms is definitely open!

The entire start-up of Openleaks just tells me that there's a bunch of losers wanting recognition, wanting to have their name known.

Um, well recently a shift from a Liberal government to a Labour government for instance? It's the whole idea behind democracy.

I would call yelling about killing people naive.

Definately not naive. In many ways, anger is power, unstable/unpredictbale power, but power nontheless. How did this country become colonised? pingpingpingpings came in, killed natives, made them slaves and built their fucking forts = Change

Assange is in jail, their bank accounts have been frozen and over all, a few secret documents hidden via encryption isnt going to change anything, the violence it causes after will though. His views, of change through non violence is honourable but misguided, its just the world we live in. Its the violence that these indiscretions cause that will be the foot note of change.

Im not saying its right, but since when has a group of activists standing around protesting peacefully ever changed shit?

The government (in any country) holds the power, and people that hold power dont just change their ways because someone says pretty please.

So much for learning from past mistakes.
Surely you can't seriously be sitting there with the thought 'war worked in the past, so it'll work again'... The world doesn't need war to change things. It just ends up happening because there's too many dumb fucks out there with the notion of 'words won't work, so bombs will'.

Fucking petty imo. Doesn't matter if Assange said sometimes was is needed - I don't think that's right at all.

I'm pretty sure before WW2, people were thinking the same thing, or along the lines of "lets talk this over".....for some reason I doubt it would've worked? Like NAZI Germany would've given a shit what anybody had to say.

I do not agree with the "wars" going on at the moment though.

Ahem, if you read my entire my post i clearly said it wasnt right. The world does not need anymore violence/wars, HOWEVER!!! because of said dumb fucks, violence is the only way things do get change. And you're a pretty naive person if you think otherwise. Go talk to the american government or even our own for that matter and you'll get told to politely fuck off, much like that fellow that is questioning the debacle with the radar detectors.

No-one likes wars/violence and its not the most ideal way to solve anything. But in current circumstances, its either, sit down and shut the fuck up or fight for what your rights as a human being.

Go take you peaceful protest and see where that gets you. Assange has opened a box of fireworks, this whole drama is going to blow up to greater proportions eventually.

My point is that promoting violent protests isn't helpful with what's happening at the moment. The more people spout about violence, the more reason the government has to condemn it.

At times, in certain situations. Call me naive but i think that the only way this will end with change is if change is forced upon them. By the american governments action regarding this problem, they must be hiding some juicy stuff, either that or they are just proud egotistical pricks, my bet is on both.

Sometimes, current heirarchys need to be dismantled. They're hiding things for a reason, and if theyve gone to these lengths to keep them hidden, id bet my life that they will go 10x further to stop them from being publically released or to punish those that were responsible for it. They have both the power and money to reign hell.

I just dont see this ending with a peaceful protest. Im not condoning acts of violence, if it can be solved peacefully then great! Besides, i think the american population (especially their government) needs a good fisting anyway, they're whole country is built upon lies, deceit and "sorry thats classified".

Go take you peaceful protest and see where that gets you.

1963 – The March on Washington.

A large political rally in support of civil and economic rights for African Americans that took place in Washington, D.C. This was the scene of Martin Luther King Jr’s historic "I Have a Dream" speech advocating racial tolerance.
Estimates of the number of participants varied from 200,000 to 300,000 people.
The march is widely credited with helping to pass the Civil Rights Act and the National Voting Rights Act.


2004 – 2005 – The Orange Revolution.

Ukrainians responded to corruption and electoral fraud in the second round of the 2004 presidential elections with massive protests. Thousands of hardcore activists occupied the center of Kiev, where they set up residence in tents and organized sit-ins, strikes, and various forms of non-violent protest to demand a revote in the run-off between opposition candidate Viktor Yushchenko and the ordained successor of outgoing President Kuchma, Viktor Yanukovych.
International reports of fraud and widespread public perception of intimidation and abuse by the authorities in favor of the government's candidate resulted in an enormous outpouring of support for Yushchenko and democratic change. Hundreds of thousands of citizens filled the capital, with the number of demonstrators reaching as many as 1 million on November 27, 2004. Mass strikes and rallies took place around the country. As a result of the protests the election results were voided and a revote was ordered by the Ukraine Supreme Court at the end of December. Yushchenko won 52% of the vote in the new election to become the third president of the Ukraine.



Oh...and a little something called the Fall of the Berlin Wall.

Violence isnt convenient for everyone. The effects of peaceful protest are evident. Not all conflict can be solved with peaceful protest though. Im guessing the reason why these documents are confidential in the first place is because they will cause a rebellion, peaceful or not.

No-one is saying that violence fixes anything, but it brings change and change does not necessarily mean a solution. If you're dealing with an authoritive figure that will resort to violent measures, then i dont think a peaceful protest will suffice. At best, they'll say sorry, admit wrong doing, change government.
But you can't ignore that the reason that many government structures are closely built around the same principles is because that those principles over rule any other when it comes to leadership. When it comes to the stage that this whole thing blows over (and it will) we'll all go back to being everyday citizens while the american government continues doing what its always done, regardless of who is in office.

Oh right, breakthroughs that in no way are inhibited by drug companies who need to take their share in profits? We SHOULD be a lot further ahead by this day and age than we currently are.

You can't change a 3rd world country no matter how much money or people you send there unless you get rid of the people blocking the good stuff from happening, but too many people want to line their pockets.

Go on all you want about breakthroughs, the only one I am interested in, is the breakthrough and subsequent shift in human consciousness.

What am I contributing? I don't know yet. But I am hoping to find something soon. You?

Wars go nowhere, and will continue to go nowhere the way they are run currently. Unfortunately too many governments, if not all, are run by faceless leaders who use the presidents/premiers as puppets. There are wars though, worth fighting, that do go somewhere, but they are hard to come by. Most are only run on the view of sustaining them = more profits.

When you keep thinking like that, humanity will definitely get nowhere.

You have had countless inventors, among others over time who have had their work seized, funding stopped, or work destroyed - all to suit agendas as was needed. You can't go out there and create something that benefits people, the corporations out there won't hear of it.

Shit, what happened to the two Aussie guys in Queensland who created a magnetic motor that could run endlessly and power a house all day every day no problems - and it would have costed you just $5,000 to buy one?

The guy that created an engine that ran on water, got funding for further studies, yet died the next day "curiously" of food poisoning?

You can't do anything out there unless people begin to think differently. Shit, Toyota have 500 Rav4 EVs produced in 1997 I think, electric cars, ran up around 160miles per charge (again, from memory). Guess who owns the rights now? Chevron.

Immediately condemned him publicly, advising there would be no consular assistance and that in fact, australia would be assisting in his persecution.
