Wikileaks....more

In my latest article on The Periscope Post I write strongly in favour of Wikileaks and an open accessible society
Wikileaks has done a lot of good work and irrespective of whether releasing US diplomatic cables is a mistake, organizations like Wikileaks gives power to the people and governments and corporate houses should only try to counter them legally and not by freezing their accounts or putting presure by other means

The problem if any lies with the ways and means of information access and although I have some restrictions on whether private and secret information should be exposed, even within an open society, wikileaks has done nothing wrong and the website is working completely within the legal framework of journalism
