wikileaks

[thethingy]

i think there is a line between personal privacy and freedom of the press. freedom of speech should to some extent surpass most boundaries, while freedom of the press should not.

You know I don't think I would class wiki as the press or as journalists, say The News Of The world or the BBC or CNN published something about you and you had a grievance with it then you would have the right to redress from the courts, wiki you just cant get any redress as they are a bunch of outlaws (as in the wiki is not a company with accounts publicly available sense), if wiki were to make themselves legitimate then I think they should be granted the same freedoms and protections that the press has, but wiki is just hiding all the donation cash for themselves (hope someone publishes there Swiss accounts), so wiki I think should be treated as citizens handling stolen property and selling stolen goods.
