How do you know that we aren't hacking in order to steal their secret technology? Luminous Animal Jun 2013 #26

Because we're the ones that develop the technologies first. pnwmom Jun 2013 #32

So how does it help encourage more freedom to throw a monkey wrench pnwmom Jun 2013 #40

Any rational person will tell you that, as imperfect as the US is, it's far more free and open geek tragedy Jun 2013 #39

That's not the impression I've been getting around here lately. n/t pnwmom Jun 2013 #41

There's no reason they can't post pages in other languages. pnwmom Jun 2013 #46

Wikileaks is a Wiki, wikis are a type of web site/publisher that allows others... Humanist_Activist Jun 2013 #60

I know what Wikileaks is. And I know it's capable of publishing in languages other than English. pnwmom Jun 2013 #61

I don't care, I just find your criticism of Wikileaks to be extraordinarily stupid and petty... Humanist_Activist Jun 2013 #62

How was I criticizing Wikileaks? I was pointing out the relative closed-ness pnwmom Jun 2013 #63

it just makes no sense, how are we to believe what he said ? he is so upset about civil rights in JI7 Jun 2013 #44

True. Wikileaks can't get the info no matter how hard they would try. The leakers would be killed. moke720 Jul 2013 #64
