the thing about WikiLeaks they bring out the information which is in the public interest but it's not in the interest of the government
for example governments all governments do all sorts of funny things than the intelligence and if everybody knew what they were doing there would be a much greater control over them because they wouldn't be able to get away with what they want - so I've always supported the idea of Freedom of Information and open information and WikiLeaks have a part to play in that and they still frighten big governments because governments don't want everyone to know what they're doing
