That's definitely the plan. We've been working flat out on this for the past few days, and the immediate priority is getting the documents preserved. [many of them were waterlogged, and have to be separated and dried in the presidential sauna]
But crowdsourcing is certainly going to happen
- sp332 13y agoCould you get some pics of drying the docs in the sauna? That would be amazing!
- danohuiginn 13y agohere are some in a speedboat: https://twitter.com/kgorchinskaya/statuses/437359849828261888 https://twitter.com/kgorchinskaya/statuses/43735984982826188... There's at least one photo from the sauna somewhere online, but I can't remember where

Found a bigger sauna picture right after this posted! https://twitter.com/gijn/status/439022212105134080 https://twitter.com/gijn/status/439022212105134080
- brador 13y agoWhat if some of the documents contain private information of non-involved individuals? Any steps being taken to protect their details?
- danohuiginn 13y agoGood question -- this is definitely an issue we need to wrestle with. For now, the vast bulk of the documents going up are business papers involving Yanukovich's companies and the management of his estates. I think those are fair game. But we'll get into murkier areas as time goes on. For now, if you see something that you think shouldn't be public, drop an email to yanukovychleaks@gmail.com and we'll look into it.
- nyrina 13y agoIsn't that a bit too late at that point in time? Once something has been on the internet...
- ctdonath 13y agoIf nothing else, this is a reminder that any "private" information you reveal to the state may or may not remain private. Hence the importance of "The right of the people to be secure in their ... papers ..., against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized." That includes bureaucratic compulsion under penalty. Maybe this will persuade Ukrainians to demand real privacy protections (as in: the government can't have private info).
