WikiLeaks set to launch new online system
- nextparadigms 15y agoWhat would be his alternatives for getting donations this time? Bitcoin? Flattr? Anything else that doesn't imply cash by mail?
- kiba 15y agoI think flattr is out of the option but bitcoin might be something to use. Of course, it would bring more heat on the bitcoin network.
- wbhart 15y agoI will personally be surprised if Wikileaks launches a new submission system tomorrow. According to a recent Wikileaks press release: "WikiLeaks is building a state-of-the-art secure submission system. Constructing the system is very complex. Due to the deteriorating state of internet security which directly impacts the ability of sources to communicate with journalists and human rights activists securely, WikiLeaks has decided to postpone the launch initially scheduled for Monday 28th 2011 [sic] in the interest of source protection."

- gwern 15y ago>Part of the problem stems from the acrimonious departure of Daniel Domscheit-Berg and other WikiLeaks volunteers in the summer of 2010. In his subsequent book about his time at WikiLeaks, Mr Domscheit-Berg accused Mr Assange of treating submissions with insufficient care and security, writing: “Children shouldn’t play with guns.” In the book, DB mentions that before the departure the 'Architect' had been working hard on a new system which was really cool in some respect, but he took it with him (presumably for use in OpenLeaks).
