A decision has been made by the same judge that ordered the site be taken down, to allow it to continue. The judge is quoted as saying, after the decision was overturned, “I took an oath to uphold the Constitution.” So it appears freedom of speech is alive and well in our society! But is this site really about Freedom of Speech? On the obvious level, yes it is, but it includes sensitive information that maybe the people that own it don’t want available to the public. For example, would you want your bank details posted on the site, just because somebody found them and thought everyone should have them? Of course not. Would you want to know if a bank had been ripping off their customers because of a leaked memo? Of course you would.

Hopefully the collective conscience of wikileaks.org will find it in their heart not to post anything that may invade the privacy of the individual. [SHOW ME]
