- yohnstoppable, on 02/20/2008, -1/+136Anyone else discover this site purely based off the attempt to shut it down? These stupid attempts at censorship always blow up in someone's face.
- hermslice, on 02/20/2008, -2/+107Freedom of information!!!!!!!!!!!
- rebotfc, on 02/20/2008, -3/+89Can't stop the signal.
- thomoore, on 02/20/2008, -5/+49This is an example of JUST the sort of tyranny the web threatens so much. http://www.scragged.com/articles/disrupting-tyrant ... explains WHY so many tyrants are reluctant to buy thE OLPC for their school children. What would happen if millions of school kids had cameras with laptops and started taking pictures of what their governments were doing? WOW!
- uberchaoslord, on 02/20/2008, -0/+34I had head of wikileaks before, but you can't buy this kind of publicity.
- mrcoderga, on 02/20/2008, -2/+35You can only stop those who would stop the knowledge.
- Elwood19k20, on 02/20/2008, -2/+31Good for them! Stuff like this makes me happy inside.
- inactive, on 02/20/2008, -6/+29They will keep trying, but we have to teach them a lesson. I never heard of wikileaks before this week. We need this info to spread as quickly as possible. teach them that when they try to censor important info we will only spread it further and strenghten our duplicity. What they should have done was just call wikileaks a "conspiracy" website....ya JFK assasination, didn't happen, WTC 7 never heard of it, USS Liberty, it was an accident, Larry Mcdonald...conspiracy nut who had a tragic accident.
- tossayo, on 02/20/2008, -0/+23What happens on the Internets stays on the Internets...
...FOREVER! - slym2k, on 02/20/2008, -0/+21I know. I read it on Wikileaks as it was happening.
- Hellbacon, on 02/20/2008, -2/+21Dugg again, because this is important.
- hoppdawg, on 02/20/2008, -7/+26i playz hot potato with your memo
- MtheoryX, on 02/20/2008, -0/+16Um, yeah, actually. I saw a dick cop picking on a 14 year old skateboarder. Had it not been for the video, he would be off the hook.
Is that enough of an example? - Enfenestrate, on 02/20/2008, -0/+16Yeah, I had never heard of the site before yesterday either
- kargur, on 02/20/2008, -0/+16here is a link to the wikileaks page
https://wikileaks.be/wiki/Bank_Julius_Baer
lets go there and streisand effect it - dasoca, on 02/20/2008, -2/+17The page also is accessible on http://88.80.13.160/
- KataLieb, on 02/20/2008, -0/+11I had heard of them, but these news got me to find out quick if I could get the whole mirror of Wikileaks. So now I got the whole site mirrored locally and im helping seed it on bittorrent too.
Good luck with your censorship! - TTURabble, on 02/20/2008, -1/+11Apparently Julius Baer can...Zing!
- fuzzynyanko, on 02/20/2008, -0/+10Looks like a job for the EFF

The internet is serious business. - NikoKun, on 02/20/2008, -0/+9Wikileaks IP address, for anyone that wants to visit the site!
88.80.13.160
edit: more direct link:
http://88.80.13.160/wiki/Wikileaks - kamikaze87, on 02/20/2008, -0/+8Yes, that's how I heard of it. In fact they have a name for these types of occurances:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect - ZaNkY, on 02/20/2008, -0/+8You can grab the page via ip address (since it's only the DNS that was taken down): http://88.80.13.160/
OR
Alternate domain: http://sunshinepress.org
Both work and lead to the same site.
Enjoy :) - bryik, on 02/20/2008, -0/+8What makes a man turn neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality?
- hexcr03, on 02/20/2008, -0/+8Yeah i never heard of this site, but now that i have i go to it atleast once a day!!!! go wikileaks.be!!!!
- PhillyMJS, on 02/20/2008, -1/+8"unflattering and apparently internal documents from the Swiss banker Julius Baer"
I hate these filthy Neutrals, Kif. With enemies you know where they stand but with Neutrals, who knows? It sickens me. - fuzzynyanko, on 02/20/2008, -1/+8wikileaks.be, wikileaks.de, and wikileaks.cx
According to the article. However, their servers seem pretty loaded right now - Kurlumbenus, on 02/20/2008, -0/+7This is wikileaks, not wikipedia, you stupid *****.
- jimT, on 02/20/2008, -0/+6read the article and you will know !
or go to wikileaks.be as suggested by kargur. - Kisama, on 02/20/2008, -0/+6While I agree with your statement, we must look and see this isn't about prying. This is about information that has already leaked and someone is trying to suppress it. That's a scary precedent too.
- yunus, on 02/20/2008, -0/+6First RTFA Second read all articles before you comment on them
- StGhurka, on 02/20/2008, -0/+6That would have to be +2 to even it out.
- NikoKun, on 02/20/2008, -0/+5http://88.80.13.160/wiki/Wikileaks
- Kenzan, on 02/20/2008, -3/+8Why do I get the feeling that some of the people associated with the Bank and this issue are going to *disappear?*
- jbird32275, on 02/20/2008, -1/+6If you read the article you would know.
- mnemy, on 02/20/2008, -0/+5Another case of old crusty judges w/ no understanding of technology making uninformed decisions. Block the whole site? For a handful of documents? Durrrr
- Kurlumbenus, on 02/20/2008, -0/+5Your freedom and liberty stop at the point where you can no longer defend them.
- Hellbacon, on 02/20/2008, -1/+6duuuurp durp duuuurp
- Kurlumbenus, on 02/20/2008, -0/+4Even worse. THEY'RE DEAD.
- inactive, on 02/20/2008, -0/+4That could not be more lame if you tried.
- dupswapdrop, on 02/20/2008, -1/+5Ok noon tomorrow protest at the lawyers office! And wear your geek outfit!
- nicholai, on 02/21/2008, -0/+4"The Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it."
Perfect - MisterGnome, on 06/13/2009, -1/+5Stick it to the man.
- InfodivaMLIS, on 02/20/2008, -2/+5SNS The Power of Web3.0 The Semantic Web!! Like Pirate Radio. Take over the Internet.
- Samurai77, on 02/20/2008, -0/+3Just in case, here is a link to all of the cover names you can use for wikileaks if for some reason you don't like IP addresses:
https://wikileaks.be/wiki/Cover_Names - bitbytebit, on 02/20/2008, -0/+3or via IP here http://88.80.13.160/wiki/Wikileaks
- UtahApocalyse, on 02/20/2008, -0/+3I ma have vaguely heard of it, now though I am reading... and saving all of it. I have it book marked and will help keep it alive.
- bbqsalad, on 02/20/2008, -1/+4Funny how until they stated they owned the doc's nobody had real proof it was authentic. They just screwed them selfs in that sense and as a bonus they just made the digg community and many many others aware of the situation.
- carrtoonist, on 02/20/2008, -1/+4Like trying to get pee out of a swimming pool.
- NikoKun, on 02/20/2008, -0/+3Someone needs to create a free anonymous distributed website hosting method, just to make it near impossible to censor and shutdown this kind of thing!
