I just wanted to point something out...

the world is now used to hacks as a part of daily life. Wikileaks is seen as a legitimate news source. we are more concerned with the content of the hack than the way in which the information was acquired, and there isn't an agency anywhere in the world that's doing enough to try and stop it. Cutting Assange's internet isn't even scratching the surface.What he is doing is a complete and utter misinterpretation of the concept of freedom of speech. Even if he was posting hacked trump emails, I would feel the same way.....but he isn't. We are officially getting used to being hacked and no one is alarmed.

I hate to say it, but even Nixon must be rolling in his grave.

1. Yeah, folks used to complain about the government snooping on email, phone, etc.

But it's okay if an organization like Wikileaks does it? Not to me. In fact, at least the government can somewhat, theoretically, be held accountable for misuse of the information. Anonymous hackers, not so much.

It isn't right in either case. But the irresponsibility of Wikileaks scares me more. Well at least until we actually have a President like Trump.
