Wikileaks & Julian Assange

There is a lot of commentary on the web about Wikileaks and its founder, and you can spend days reading stuff and watching videos. I did that. Here is selection of, in my opinion, some of the best videos and links that will make you instantly well informed on the topic – its background, motivation, vision, technology, affairs, legal issues, consequences, freedom, rights…

Background information: Wikirebels (documentary in 4 parts – one hour total)

U.S. Lawmakers Discuss Constitutional Issues Raised by WikiLeaks (3 hour video from CSPAN)

Julian Assange responds to accusations

A bit of humor for the end:
Why Mark Zuckerberg is Person of the Year

And don’t forget, “Freedom of speech: priceless. For everything else, there’s MasterCard”

Bonus reading: his blog,

Do you want to know what I think about Julian and Wikileaks? Watch Michael Parenti’s The U.S. War on Yugoslavia and you will understand why I think Wikileaks must survive, and many other sites with similar mission need to show up. It is essential that government dealings become transparent and accountable. Same is as much true for mass media, banks, and other important institutions.
