proof cap still beats the russians plotting to defend us against the forces of nature to the creation of a multi million dollar concept. but next our special report on the founder of wiki leaks julian this such. the website. tapping. the last. name is chili and such felt better i think that that adults who were detained at guantanamo bay which exist under attack. he says he has a dream a world without secrets the first step in the fourth of the institute to get information out of the real world today anyone can find out what information the government the military and bankers of kept under lock and key secrecy is the biggest. going to be a rock or a city is wiki leaks the dream of an idealist or

a tool to manipulate global politics through his words on and on anger. what motivates julian assange does he want to change the world or is he just seeking fame does he act on his own or is someone else behind wiki leaks and will its whistle blowing revelations change the world forever. coonass january twentieth a city with millions of residents descends into chaos thousands of protesters take to the streets in downtown genius to demand the immediate resignation of president ben ali who has ruled the country for over twenty three years after several days of tensions resulting bloodshed then ali had to flee the capital on january the fifteenth this. the events that took place in the north

african country in january were immediately dubbed the jasmine revolution of the choosing and coup also has another name for the wiki revolution. this man is a professor at one of the universities in tunis. as a political activist he prefers to be known by his nickname. he didn't take part in the attacks on government buildings but he said to be one of the main driving forces of the revolution. after registering his web site to leaks he began posting material concerning choosier from diplomatic cables in arabic and french the cables were made public by julian assange of twenty ten. at the first time with the first seventy seven thousand documents and then we've got others. the sensation as i said it was surely ferdie very very interesting to note the true facts that the us government is waiting. to leave the us

government was. really not supported benelli for a human rights violation. discontent with a president who would look good in power for too long had been brewing into his ear for quite some time public anger erupted after students mohamad was easy set him self on fire and publish stories of runaway corruption eroding the top echelon of the trinity and government. after when the. i came the hummingbird says he did what he did. i think tradition was made sure to. just start to change what's happened in tunisia and also in egypt and it's happening in a few other places these diplomatic cables for the people. they were actually right and not trusting the government in thinking that there was something that was

corrupt. can you don't steinberg showman's the public spotlight he's going to stay in the shade although in actual fact he's just as much a godfather of the wiki leaks project as julian assange. yes my name is daniel smith this is julia sunday and we're here to make a short presentation about the we can extract what we do daniel don't steinberg could be described as co-creator of the internet's most scandalous web site sit together he understands took the idea of creating a site where any person can safely post secret information anonymously and made it a reality that we view weeks i heard about wiki leaks in september two thousand and seven and in november with all the seven when i first got in touch with julian. he was already working on weekend except that i'm going to my soul i asked if they needed any help. and started working on a couple of topics john young registered the wiki leaks daughter will become

a name in late december two thousand and six although young had already created something similar to wiki leaks several years before previously he used the cryptome site for publishing classified material secrecy is the biggest. enemy of democracy. it is way over done and so threats to democracy are coming from your side of the from the secret keeper. they need to be exposed during the first few years if we can leaks the resource was treated as a project created by internet fringes we can leaks lives off donations and they were inconsistent at the time and for twenty years we were one and a half against me tried to build up weekend as a project we published a lot of documents we try to get funding and it was very difficult so we have all put in our private funding into the project and tried to sustain it but that really didn't work out so well at least not an infinite amount of money and.

this is nuclear shelter you built during the second world war and modernized during the cold war so we have reconstructed it with data centers of welcoming or in light of show you the facility and this bunker in stockholm was built to protect swedish army personnel from a nuclear attack tell tell reminders of its original purpose can be seen all over the place. were digitally this type was actually in submarines and so they or german submarines from the beginning and the alarm in case of trouble of the alarm starts alarmists. or. today behind nice thick walls and heavy doors there are services carrying thousands of websites some of them store wiki leaks data.

this is the cabin up on you feel to see. these two particular servers swedish laws provide better protection against attacks on weekly leaks than the bunkers malls or a security system. through the roof becoming one your most favorite feel they must be. to make it a material therefore we are told that the. assumption is team and to be very careful about the security of this service after this video was posted on that site traffic to safety. there are. back in two thousand and seven american army servicemen were caught on camera shooting dead a reuters reporter and his driver in a baghdad suburb after they mistook them from terrorists three years after the

tragedy when he leaves publish the video sparking a massive international rao one and shows you errors in the internal judicial mechanism and its military shows you that reports about war who is insurgent and who is not an insurgent but appear in the media following the bit where people are killed cannot be trusted several months later in the summer of twenty ten the site and its partner outlets published the afghan dossier was. wiki leaks itself called the afghanistan war diaries they contained eighty thousand on the spot reports about the course of the campaign to zone said they had received the classified information from a man employed at the u.s. department of defense. it covers a six year period of war and ninety two thousand reports at all noise every instant serious incident there with go through. it with authority and location

overkill as soon as the afghan dossier was made public the sones and his team sorts to instant frame but scathing criticism soon followed the most common accusation was that the names of afghans collaborating with allied troops and details concerning american agents had not been redacted from the reports the taliban were quick to pledge to kill all those who had helped the u.s. economy. it was appears the mostly period you're pretty up for being where we're looking at finishing seriously. and hold back and think how the reports are for them because they hadn't thought of but occasionally it's if they've made it they can get it through if urged the white house was there resistance here and we'll get your way or we publish the white house and north if that race. every week once

a week we're getting in this cafe here's the party leadership we've just had a half day meeting says we're under the leadership a little barry has taken over the party leadership. we're wrapping up breakfast and discussing how to move on for the next couple years. swedish internet pirates have no office of vero and that's why they meet in this cafe in stockholm the movement has helped wiki leaks greatly by sharing its knowledge on creating a growing network of mirror sites as well as decoding and processing information. when we step in to support we collate in august of last year they will not us know as they all know today they have received aid from thousands of thousands of people so they are not. our aid doesn't make as much difference today as it did know that said however it was still the swiss pirate party then. brought wiki leaks the wiki leaks domain online and went offline during the hectic week of

information was. similar projects have been launched around the world including russia. most people in russia don't speak english that's why we wanted to make wiki leaks documents available to all russians online so we set about spotting reports of interest to people living in russia and countries of the commonwealth of independent states such reporters are either fed to translation web sites where the people themselves translate them after receiving them via email russian pirates of launch the similar site called leaks in largely mimics what assumptions been doing it with the leaks a few leaks have already been made public. i thought a lot of informers will post their reports on the internet site we will know absolutely nothing about them we see the whole thing as a black box churning out documents from time to time but there's also

a big question though is how are they going to send their stuff. recently in the summer of twenty ten a song together the circle of accredited journalists for wiki leaks these people were supposed to get the news before it would appear on the site and by doing this wanted to secure the leaks and give them greater exposure. the first russian publication to disclose wiki leaks data was the magazine russian reporter of the same time other magazines and newspapers had also received such invitations but decided against getting involved in wiki leaks risky business. it is clearly the newspapers running a triple risk first they may have suspected that they might get involved in somebodies gamble considering that the material had not been properly assessed second they may have had their doubts about how that would affect relations with the us embassy and third they may have been worried by the uncertain prospects of

relations with the russian leadership the historical material which chiefly concerned russia was published by russian journalists in parallel with the site the first week so a record number of visitors people were hungry for a sensational scoop. additions rush hour frankly when we saw the first set of documents since in response to our request we didn't know how we should go about them at first glance many of them were unlikely to arouse interest you have to breed them very carefully to find something anywhere near a scoop i think some in our audience have been looking forward to wild stories about u.f.o.'s or people devouring children when they found nothing of the car and so they simply turned away from us. after the publication of the afghan dossier we can lease web site and its founder a song to become the world. may newsmakers the australian spent most of his spare time travelling giving interviews and taking part in different seminars with those words again welcome to stockholm and the fourth yes.

it's unlikely the julian assange on speaking before the journalists of this seminar in stockholm could have full seen that in a few months he would be in jail nor would have imagined that his close companions would desert him although this visit to the swedish capital would lead to his downfall. culture is that so much of an oldish visitors share the power of. the market as the arab spring continues to sweep the arab middle east where does this leave your around with a new engine aquatic regimes in the region now deceased and. the world. bringing you the latest in science and technology from around

russia. we've got the future covered. by aug twenty ten q in a song for become the world's most popular media figure the wiki leaks founder savor the glory of being alone finder and the soul adversary to the world superpower all attempts by the us authorities to known for prosecution against mr ozon proved unsuccessful and wiki leaks founder had tried to be legally irreproachable until he decided to attend a seminar in stockholm in august twenty ten. investigators would later establish them during his visit to sweden mr saunders met two young women. and spent the night with both of them a short while later both young women accused the wiki leaks founder of sexual assault. they went to the police. primarily to discuss with the police to tell the police what they have been through

and to get advice or try with you and when they tell their stories both of them separately from each other and they tell the stories the police the police officer realized they're telling a story concerning a crime. according to daniel don't shout beg persones has always had a weakness for women we were at a conference and would have passed and he told a lot of people at our conference that he has children on every continent swedish authorities put the songs on the international wanted list by which time the wiki leaks founder who landed in britain many described the criminal prosecution against him as politically motivated swedish lawyers claim that it was a routine criminal case. it's nonsense it has nothing whatsoever to do with the wiki leaks actually my two clients are very much in favor of the weeklies that's why they were attending the seminar or the lecture from seoul and they still are

for it is unfortunately a rather common case of sexual abuse we have these cases all over again in sweden and everywhere in the world and this is a case like any other with the difference that we suspect the person would be doing songs. at the same time tensions inside the wiki leaks team rose to the surface songes friend and colleague daniel burke said he could no longer work with him he withdrew from the project along with many others it was all i'm really very sorry to see the project winding up the problem is that julian is intent on cracking down on any dissenters as a matter of fact now he's one of the kind of people that we've been trying to oppose so i quit at the right moment after that negative trend had emerged within the wiki leaks team. aside from ideological differences burhan hassan also had a personal conflict when berg introduced the sons to his future wife. disapproved

of his choice. i fell in love i'd immediately and i told my friend about the only thing at the requirement was that i should try to find as much on her as i can get so that if she is me something in my hands again. and that was a really weird recommendation for the loss of half of his team was not the most serious consequence of the split for us. much more important was an archive of free thousand unpublished secret materials which burgundy other defectors took away with them for bad this data is a form of insurance daniel had all the reason in the world to fear a stone he was enraged by his betrayal so much had even threatened his former friend. he wants that if i ever put in danger. you would hunt me down and kill me. and he even repeated that threat

a couple of times towards others that asked them about it. on december the first twenty ten into polish and a warrant for a soldier's arrest and we later the wiki leaks chief voluntarily showed up at a police station where they arrested him and weeks later he was released on bail to look for him and all charges against him were never dropped. but thank you. for all the people around the world. record it i see why a week away. shortly after he was bailed the son shocked the world with a statement that it was now the turn for the banks to share their secrets he announced the publication on wiki leaks of huge volumes of information on private accounts in swiss banks on january the seventeenth two thousand and eleven a former employee of the julius by a bank window film a publicly handed over to

a sony two discs with information on personal bank accounts but i want to do it and know what the wiki leaks like it again. in order. to investigate it and making a decision on it. yes bromberg works as a journalist for the financial times specializing in the subject of bank information faffed he investigated the two thousand and seven purchase by the german government of disks with information from anonymous sources on german citizens hiding their money abroad. there are seven hundred or seven hundred seventy german names on it some of our go to court all of them had to pay money back in the year two thousand and eight the german state court because of this of the more than one billion of europe. the method proved to be

effective even depositors whose names were not on the just field possible criminal prosecution thousands of germans who preferred not to wait for a subpoena paid their taxes in twenty ten and the limo goes government months again purchased from anonymous sources another disk with similar information on deposits of german citizens in swiss banks and helped her to return almost two billion euros to the state treasury many consider these tax stories to be a direct consequence of looking leaks affect. a pretty comparable because on one side the people sell that are to us or lots of money or millions of money on the other side you have wiki leaks and so this is nonprofit so there are people who their intention is different but exposing the bank secrets subsequently transformed wiki leaks into a completely nontransparent organization in financial terms but songs is the only

person who knows everything about the whereabouts of the huge donations made to the organization. but there were other money trails where no one knew actually other than julian where it came from and what it was used for and i think there's a natural if you're working in a team of maybe five or ten people at that time there's no need to have secrets you know at least in fields like that. and when you ask someone what's happening to the money in australia and how much money is there really and the person tells you or you don't have all. after his rift with the songe berg wrote a book titled inside wiki leaks and launched his own website called open leagues would beg site is different and will operate according to the black box principle the website will receive material from anonymous informers but will dispatch them to traditional media outlets for further publication it will be impossible to enter

the website and read the information first hand. everything is simple and transparent they want to ditch spying schemes publicists and the south advertising which is sound seems to like so much this image is what religion created because it characterizes. our. somewhere between a hacker and the freedom of information and the james bond of modern times and this is very appealing you know this is what you think they should donate to so this is exactly one of the reasons why we left the project because it has become more about this all games. then all of the actual information. that there are. five. of ministration was introduced at all universities in china zero after the

revolution but students didn't have time to attend classes in the first weeks following the coup that they were too busy debating how to protect the progress made in the january revolution. you're afraid that over evolution you didn't succeed in all its goals. your participation and your steep thinking that this is being everything about the new government help me and you and you will meet our business. it's just that see if you did it was. each of the students took part in the overthrow of the ben ali regime many of them took to the streets after they had read information on corruption scrupulously accumulated on the website kenya leaks. you can see that when early in the regime of. the first victim. of this to

critics astrobiology his friend an assistant. or the ones who had prepared the ground for that revolution they went to war in the old port town of desert pirates and used it as a stopping place hundreds of years ago and she makes founder's like in themselves to such pirates of centuries past. pirates but maybe because words from. freedom for transparency and so for human rights. or democracy both internet activists agree that julian assange invented a truly effective method of influencing real politics via the internet. links that have been published by and really. played the role we don't know we cannot. how big it was but it does help. in.

the corruption of the family had been ali and closed down but of the. sure we. are not for this and. certain things. later that same day the streets of community has swelled with crowds of people again. but this time around they were not protesting it was a celebration in egypt's president hosni mubarak has been forced to step down under the pressure from millions of people another internet revolution to keep its goal the revolution tsunami that rose in tunisia has already swept across several countries and it's anyone's guess who shows it may reach in the near future.
