This is what Wikileaks was supposed to be/ originally was. Since they've changed gears a site for en masse data collection of value would be interesting, sadly the "wikileaks rivals" have no interest in this... so it's probably a good plan.

- shii 15y agoRight, that's what those[1,2] Wikileaks-specific sites were intended for. I'm imaging one for general use to dump by anyone that doesn't get filtered and screened by Wikikeaks. Also, I don't think Wikileaks would go along with the release of so much personal info. They also have their hands quite full with the cables affair which is ongoing and not near completely released yet (as is my understanding, correct me of wrong).

- canadaduane 15y agoThey changed gears because it turned out that passive reporting of giant fact dumps did not garner attention nor have significant impact on the world. As soon as they began taking on the role of curation or reporting on top of their cache of data, that's when things really took off (according to Assange).
