A different perspective...........It is dispiriting and upsetting for anyone who cares about the American tradition of a free press to see Eric Holder, Hillary Clinton and Robert Gibbs turn into H.R. Haldeman, John Erlichman and John Dean...........[url=http://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2010/12/the-shameful-attacks-on-julian-assange/67440/]The]The Shameful Attacks on Julian Assange - David Samuels - International - The Atlantic[/url] Shameful Attacks on Julian Assange - David Samuels - International - The Atlantic
I do have to agree, it is kind of hard not to notice that things suddenly got a lot more serious once he announced he had info in the banking industry.
Yep. And it is allegedly wired to several journalists. And just because the Guardian...............stop laughing.......
No............stop laughing..................
Ok, stop. Just stop. I'm trying to be serious. Effort should count...
So, stop laughing. So, the Guardian...........what? No really, Stop.
Thanks. Stop giggling. I see you. Yep. Stop.
When it hits...........you will see what the bitchin' has been about, in advance. The cool thing is that denial will be corp bread, passing it off as corn bread.
Since nobody has the password yet, you must be referring to the previously-leaked info. Which by definition would be nowhere near as damaging as the info that serves an insurance policy.
What I want to know is if this guy can create a file code that is impossible to crack, why can't the government? If all this information is so "top secret," why wasn't it better protected?
This is very carefully planned & controlled.
TSA at airports, train & bus stations. Maybe we now need to control information via the Internet?
Republicans went on the attack again Wednesday against Genachowski's latest proposal. Robert McDowell and Meredith Attwell Baker, the two Republicans on the FCC, said they could not support the proposal. McDowell said Genachowski's effort "to adopt sweeping regulations of Internet network management" is an "ill-advised maneuver."
And two top Republicans on the House Commerce Committee, Joe Barton of Texas and Cliff Stearns of Florida, sent a letter to the FCC chairman asking him to explain where the agency gets authority to mandate net neutrality.

It makes me wonder if the government ever heard of the "Read Only" setting that private companies use all the time including my own company. In my job I have access to sensitive information that my company would rather its competitors not get. It is all "read only". I can see it on my company laptop while connected to the company network or wireless VPN but I cannot make a copy of it, print it, download it or even do "print screen" or save it to any device including my own computer. I wonder why the government cannot do likewise.
