Anonymous vows to take leaking to the next level
http://articles.cnn.com/2011-02-23/world/wikileaks.anonymous_1_wikileaks-world-s-most-dangerous-website-daniel-domscheit-berg?_s=PM:WORLD

WikiLeaks could have one foot in the online grave.

It's been months since its last major leak, and its staff members -- former and current -- say it's so thinly staffed and broke that it can't dissect a massive file a whistle-blower handed over, allegedly naming rich and influential global players guilty of tax crimes.

Founder Julian Assange, described as a megalomaniac in a tell-all book by the group's former spokesman, is facing extradition to Sweden on sex crime charges. Many observers predict he'll face extradition to the United States next

That could mean time is running out to pay for Assange to appear at your dinner party (via video message), but it's a reason to purchase a "Free Assange" T-shirt, now available from WikiLeaks' online store.

4. Agreed.
Make it all part of the public record before anyone can destroy it.

9. I agree!
Throw it up on bittorrent, let people download and see for themselves. I'm sure there's lots of people who would enjoy pouring over it and seeing what's what.
