Everyone talks about wikileaks these days, especially as their top spokesman/leader Julian Assange was arrested in the UK. They unveiled / made public several hundreds of thousands of cables and international secret telegrams, papers, letters, emails, etc. Many of these impacted the relations between countries and shook up goverments. USA, of course, wants the website dead, so they “killed it” – their hosting company refused to host it anymore. More than that – paypal, VISA, and MasterCard, among other online payments processing companies, refused to take any payments that would help wikileaks. Strangely enough, it looks like at the moment MasterCard online payment processing has some serious problems – no payments can be taken(at least at the moment) – the hackers that support wikileaks put the website and their online services down.
What’s going on? Who’s the good guy and who’s the bad guy? Sweden because they want Julian Assange on a ridiculous charge of rape? USA and the other superpowers because their real intentions and attitudes were revealed in these cables / documents put online? The hackers who kicked wikileaks out of USA? The newspapers and radios and news medias who are pros / cons the wikileaks? The hackers who DDOS attacked MasterCard and other online payments processing companies? The rest of the wikileaks people who continue to publish leaked documents via wikileaks? USA who bans any discussion or mention of wikileaks for people who want to work for them? The newspapers like guardian who analyze the cables and periodically put out some analysis regarding the relations between the countries and the ambassadors / foreign affairs ministers? Wow, talking about the world becoming smaller – via these thousands of leaked documents you can see some state secrets / secret operations that took place in the war…. all of them for free. I have no idea what’s going on… but wikileaks definitely placed a bomb and now, the rest of the world…
