Leak-o-nomy: The Economy of Wikileaks

,----[ Quote ]
| We have lots of very significant upcoming 
| releases, significant in terms of bandwidth, but 
| even more significant in terms of amount of 
| labour they will require to process and in terms 
| of legal attacks we will get. So we need to be 
| in a stronger position before we can publish the 
| material.

Wikileaks Funding Plan Could Be Risky

,----[ Quote ]
| The open-source whistleblower site, Wikileaks,
| which according to The National has âproduced
| more scoops in its short life than the
| Washington Post has in the past 30 years,â has
| temporarily and voluntarily suspended its own
| service.
|
| The staff of Wikileaks is making a direct plea
| on the Website for financial assistance, with
| a slogan proclaiming: âWe protect the World -
| will you protect us?â

WikiLeaks.org applies for $532,000 funding from the Knight Foundation -
for "local news" whistleblower leaks ?

,----[ Quote ]
| WikiLeakS.org has applied for a grant from
| the Knight Foundation a charitable
| foundation financed from the former
| Knight-Ridder US newspaper conglomerate.
|
| Do not confuse this with the recently
| revived 1980's fictional Knight Rider TV
| series featuring a supposedly artificially
| intelligent car, which starred David
| Hasselhoff.

Wikileaks is in trouble.

,----[ Quote ]
| Despite frequent press confusion, Wikileaks
| is nothing to do with Wikimedia at all â
| âwikiâ is a generic term for âmass-editable
| websiteâ and they use MediaWiki, but
| thereâs no connection.
