Wikileaks Still Matters
Three weeks from now we turn 20. A couple of weeks ago (or less) Wikileaks turned 20.
The founder of Wikileaks is now a free man and is building back his life with his wife, Stella. He lives in Australia and his site, Wikileaks, is still online.
Wikileaks is a symbol of endurance and perseverance. People who expose crimes, provided they are willing to "fight 'til the end", will end up on top. Victims of crimes are victims of crimes, no matter the PR campaigns and gymnastics in logic (to somehow invert the narrative).
It was never sustainable a strategy to keep calling Assange "rapist" - a mere projection by the way - or to paint him as a vicious person who "tortures cats" (he loves cats) - again a clear case of utter projection.
I am still hoping that Wikileaks will have new publications some time in the future (not mere "tweets" in a MElon-run site).
The wife of Julian said he was in the lengthy process of recovery; that's totally understandable. As long as Wikileaks is still widely known and is technically online, there's definitely room for resumption (new activity, newly-leaked material).
The site called Cryptome - a sort of precursor (to Wikileaks) - is still online, i.e. it has outlived its founder, who died of old age.
The world needs more sites like these. █
