  It is interesting to see the ability that wikileaks has to move markets and its impact on the world of finance, where information is king. Is it possible that wikileaks could help huge financial firms because it provides information that was previously unavailable?

That Mr. Assange might shift his attention to a private company — especially one as politically unpopular as Bank of America or any of its rivals, which have been stained by taxpayer-financed bailouts and the revelation of improper foreclosure practices — raises a new kind of corporate threat, combining elements of law, technology, public policy, politics and public relations

WikiLeaks and Julian Paul Assange : The New Yorker - 0 views

www.newyorker.com/...100607fa_fact_khatchadourian

shared by Tom Zorc on 17 Mar 11 - No Cached

The edited film, which was eighteen minutes long, began with a quote from George Orwell that Assange and M had selected: “Political language is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give the appearance of solidity to pure wind.”
- Tom Zorc on 17 Mar 11
  
  And how fitting is it that Assange is concerned with political language, and how it is "designed." Maybe I'm just stuck on this idea at the moment... But the connotations language has upon its effect is incredibly powerful.

Saudi King Abdullah welcomed White House counterterrorism adviser John Brennan, S/WCI Ambassador Williamson, and Ambassador Fraker to his private palace March 15 for a 90-minute discussion focused on U.S. Saudi-relations, counterterrorism cooperation, the Yemeni Guantanamo Bay detainees, Iran, and Iraq.

Egypt Tunisia Diplomatic Cables Wikileaks Julian Assange

shared by Nicholas Adams on 19 Mar 11 - No Cached

Nicholas Adams on 19 Mar 11

The WikiLeaks founder says he believes the internet is not a technology that favors freedom of speech but rather spying. Assange disagrees with reports that Facebook and Twitter play a role in the unrest in the Middle East. He offers his reasoning why revolts cannot be started via Facebook, Twitter, or other social networking sites: they can all be used to round-up principal participants, so that they may be beaten, interrogated or incarcerated. Perhaps most disturbingly, he blames leaked diplomatic cables for the unrest currently in the Middle-East being that the United States had decided that in a necessary event, they would militarily back the Tunisian military over the political regime and would mobilize against neighboring countries if need be. There were further cables that also led to US disapproval of Mubarak in Egypt.

Nicholas Adams on 19 Mar 11

The subject of wikileaks has opened much debate as to whether the website has gone too far or whether they are simply picking up the loose end of an underachieving US Media, however, even as such organizations as Amnesty International award the webpage, they have faced continued animosity as they reveal revelations that the US Government simply did not want publicized. Shockingly and contrary to government reports, troops manning checkpoints or riding convoy shoot at innocent civilians or torture prisoners. In one report, 69,000 out of the 109,000 deaths recorded from Army checkpoints were civilians.

A slew of diplomatic messages from South America, where the United States has had testy relations with several leaders, reveal U.S. concerns over issues ranging from terrorism to a spat over oil between Argentina and Britain. But private messages released by WikiLeaks also highlight Washington's focus on the personalities on a continent largely ruled by leftist presidents, some of them European-style technocrats and others virulently anti-American populists.
