- andrewcooke 16y agoAs I said in http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1965184 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1965184 I don't understand what's happening - they are visible at http://wikileaks.ch http://wikileaks.ch (and also at http://213.251.145.96/ http://213.251.145.96/ and http://88.80.13.160/ http://88.80.13.160/) and that name is being provided by EveryDNS according to whois.
