Wikileaks big cablegate Leak was leaked - Polidicks

[URL]http://gawker.com/5716034/wikileaks-big-leak-is-leaked[/URL] [quote]Wikileaks' crown jewels—the 250,000 classified diplomatic cables that it is releasing in a slow drip, with just under 2,000 out so far—[URL="http://www.heraldsun.com.au/ipad-application/newspaper-gets-wikileaks-cables/story-fn6s850w-1225975253650"]have been leaked to a Norwegian newspaper[/URL]. The Norwegian daily Aftenposten says it has the full database, despite Wikileaks' efforts to keep access to the cables limited to the [I]Guardian[/I], [I]Der Spiegel[/I], and [I]El Pais[/I], all of which signed strict nondisclosure agreements and have been coordinating their reporting on the cache. It's not the first time the cables have been shared outside the inner circle—the [I]Guardian[/I] secretly handed the database over to the [I]New York Times[/I] prior to publication. While the [I]Times[/I] has generally kept pace with the other legit cable recipients and hasn't dumped them en masse, it's unclear whether [I]Aftenposten[/I] will be as discreet: "We are free to do whatever we want with these documents," the paper's editor said, according to a Google translation of [URL="http://translate.google.com/translate?sourceid=mozclient&u=http%3A//www.dagensit.no/article2048020.ece"]this story from a Norwegian paper[/URL]. [I]Aftenposten[/I] says the leak occurred "without the consent of Wikileaks director [URL="http://gawker.com/tag/julianassange/"]Julian Assange[/URL]." But it happens to have come at a time when Assange's coalition of media partners is fraying—just yesterday, [URL="http://gawker.com/5715682/julian-assange-throws-another-newspaper-under-the-bus"]he had a hissyfit about the [I]Guardian[/I]'s coverage[/URL] of rape charges pending against Assange in Sweden. So maybe he's throwing copies around just to rob the [I]Guardian[/I] of its ongoing exclusive.[/quote] [U][IMG]http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/879/xzibit.png[/IMG][/U]

Inb4 wikileaks gets mad "NO, [B]WE'RE[/B] SUPPOSED TO BE THE GLORY WHORES, NORWAY!!!"

I'm still waiting for the insurance file's key to be released; Assange said it'd get sent to the world if he got arrested.

:irony:

[QUOTE=tinhead50;26895443]I'm still waiting for the insurance file's key to be released; Assange said it'd get sent to the world if he got arrested.[/QUOTE] yay extortion.

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;26895520]You want freedom of the press, yet bitch about it when they put a black mark on you even though it's still news...?[/QUOTE] While wikileaks is a good thing, and the people behind it are pretty cool, Assange is an enormous jackass.

[QUOTE=Regulas021;26896261]While wikileaks is a good thing, and the people behind it are pretty cool, Assange is an enormous jackass.[/QUOTE] He is indeed. I like Wikileaks. I do not like Assange.

I heard you like leaks, so we leaked the files which you leaked.

[QUOTE=ExplodingGuy;26896507]I heard you like leaks, so we leaked the files which you leaked.[/QUOTE] :psyduck: But it's unknown whether they'll leak the leaks that were leaked, however.

You know, I have yet to see even one of these diplomatic cable leaks that's detrimental to national security. I hope it remains that way. I'm all for freedom of the press, but I don't want anyone endangered.

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;26896356]He is indeed. I like Wikileaks. I do not like Assange.[/QUOTE] This is the new PC facepunch bandwagon - saying you like Wikileaks but not Assange Last year it was saying you were agnostic without knowing what that actually means

[QUOTE=Zeke129;26896747]This is the new PC facepunch bandwagon - saying you like Wikileaks but not Assange Last year it was saying you were agnostic without knowing what that actually means[/QUOTE] If you're referring to me personally, I never claimed to be agnostic.

why do people shove "gate" in front of everything as if it's a sequel to watergate?

[QUOTE=Zeke129;26896747]This is the new PC facepunch bandwagon - saying you like Wikileaks but not Assange Last year it was saying you were agnostic without knowing what that actually means[/QUOTE] Shrug, just my opinion on it. He acts like he's some usurping revolutionary hero, thinking he's holding the entire world hostage with his little "killswitch". To me he just comes off as a prick with an over inflated ego who devalues his entire movement.

I wants ze insurance file password. Where do I get the insurance file? NVM, TPB.

[QUOTE=Pace.;26896834]why do people shove "gate" in front of everything as if it's a sequel to watergate?[/QUOTE] News stations do it to make it seem more dramatic.

Wait what did Assange do to make him an asshole? just wondering. [editline]22nd December 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=Regulas021;26896863]Shrug, just my opinion on it.

[QUOTE=Zeke129;26897161]I think he's earned the right to be more smug than the average person.[/QUOTE] Regardless of whether someone has the "right to be smug" or not, it doesn't make him look less of a dick.

:smug:

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;26897206]Regardless of whether someone has the "right to be smug" or not, it doesn't make him look less of a dick.[/QUOTE] personally see it. you act like you know the man but i never had a "this guy is a dick" feeling when hearing him on the news

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;26897206]Regardless of whether someone has the "right to be smug" or not, it doesn't make him look less of a dick.[/QUOTE] He doesn't appear to be a dick to me. He appears to be a man with a lot of shit on his plate, who's dealing with it.

Wikileaks leaks sound pretty scary too me.

I think calling Assange an asshole is a way of not completely supporting wikileaks. because you dont want to be judged by the people who hate Assange and think he should be killed but you also like the idea of wikileaks and dont want to be on the bad side of its supporters.

Hurry up and kill Assange, I want that damn password.

[QUOTE=Zeke129;26896747]This is the new PC facepunch bandwagon - saying you like Wikileaks but not Assange Last year it was saying you were agnostic without knowing what that actually means[/QUOTE] Hahahaa. Well said.

[QUOTE=SgtMethane;26896879]I wants ze insurance file password. Where do I get the insurance file? NVM, TPB.[/QUOTE] What the Christ, why do people even bother downloading the damn thing. What do you honestly believe you will find that will benefit you personally. If the key is released and there is actually something in the file, it'll be all over the news anyway.
