is a wiki leaks about to fall apart according to former wiki leaks staffers a domino chain of resignations is under way including the organization's second best known name daniel schmidt a spokesman now why the change of heart from members of the world's most famous whistle blowing site well according to these former employees julian asuncion has become somewhat of a tyrant even chanting the following he said quote i am the heart and soul of this organization its founder philosopher spokes person original coder organizer a financier and all the rest and if you have a problem with it piss off. that's true too now some former staffers were complained the pressure was so men's to release huge documents that not enough time was given to properly redact all the information to put others in jeopardy and with the upcoming october eighteenth release of documents from iraq if all goes as promised of course questions are beginning to arise could wiki leaks be done and if so why would that mean for whistleblowers and for the idea that information should be open to the public when joining me from san

that's a wiky. i welcome you to go to our wiky site it's nopnawi k i. org. jarry is our wiky manager he's the guy that sort of birthed it and has taken ownership. all of you could contribute. mo magic are in the western adition are the community convener they don't have a website we added their information to our website so people who are connected and want to look for tools or agencies that help them can get that information. so, pardon? >> the wiky the site is nopnawiki. org. we have the news letter and yahoo groups and website and wiky site. we fliers for all our meetings at our cafes and merchants. you can read about the events in the neighborhood. there is word of mouth that's the best way i think. talking to people is the best way to build communality. we do organize a lot of activities in our neighborhood. the reason why we are successful in organizing all the activities is we have a large shared leadership organization. all of us our volunteers and 11 board members we have over 60 volunteers in our neighborhood distributing on a parent's group or saf

leaks but wiki leaks is a foreign organization so does the men even apply to it. it's really hard to say. you can argue that the actions were taken in the united states that's often the case when people try to claim jurisdiction. for activities that occur over the internet where they take orders and the organization is in a foreign country but in fact wiki leaks is international it doesn't really have to take orders these guys are prepared to elude capture so it really seems to be just kind of a token symbol it doesn't have much meaning to wiki leaks ok so then if we can really you know gets off free let's talk about other websites then perhaps that might have this information i mean these days it's really hard to decide who counts as being a journalist these days when anybody can have a blog online and write about it so you know i mean does this meant meant infringe upon their freedom of speech could they be important danger now. for this particular. it would depend on how the courts would decide to return true this statement mass dissemination.

and perhaps most notably when it comes to gaining media and government attention we could look to wiki leaks and its co-founder julian signage as such people but while officials try to paint him as an exception as a single villain in the internet age the truth is that hacking culture is vibrant expands continents decades and even has a code of ethics first that all information should be free and second that authority should not be trusted and decentralization should be promoted but as we can see with the assigned drama people aren't quite sure if they should really think of these hackers as heroes or villains well joining me from our studio in new york to discuss it is peter ludlow a professor at northwestern university and the editor of crypto anarchy cyber states and pirate utopias he's also got an e-book coming out this week called our future in virtual worlds thank you so much for joining me i have to ask you this question because you know like i said if you maybe read the news if you've seen a lot of movies out there hackers are always portrayed as the bad guys they all they do is

a google wiki site. and you can password-protect those that would be able to sign in, which would be staff and commissioners, up load any size file documents, retain those documents on that cloud website for free, and commissioners could log in at any time from anywhere in the world and be able to access their particular information, and that would give those of us who still value the number of trees an alternative to driving down here and picking up a package. the only question would be if the security of that password protection would be satisfied -- would satisfy the retirements of the city. but that would be my suggestion because it's totally, absolutely, come pleatly free. >> ok. well, we will definitely ask about that and see if we can use that. it's these big humongous files. the other thing i wanted to mention was the minutes format. because we've been able to use this room and get these reported, we've been able to then refer people who are interested in seeing these meetings or having transcrip
