Not sure if this has anything to do with them promising to post 5GB of BofA data, but the timing of it does make one wonder of course about the possible connection.

Moral of the story is that in the land of "Free Speech", you are not free to piss off well connected people. Such actions may result in false rape allegations and one being persecuted around the world while many media channels will paint you as a criminal.

Amazon was hosting them and dumped them. Wikileaks is a hot potato, that's for sure.

I dearly love those WikiLeaks guys, though I think they have gone too far. I'm just trying to free us from the Realtor(R) cartel and debt-slavery. Julian Assange is trying to free us from elite monopolization of power in general.

The accusation that the founder of Wikileaks just happens to also be a rapist is not credible. It really looks like some powerful people are out to get him at any cost.

Please tell me if the BoA data gets published. I'd love to be able to tell other people where it is.

I actually support Wikileaks. Most of the data they published is just gossip and stuff everyone already knows.... The Karzai government is corrupt: This should only come as a surprise to those who live under a rock.

It's too late to stop wikileaks, efforts to shut it down and perscute Assange will only backfire, further eroding the credibility of the authorities and MSM.

I hear he's a Communist rapist, which is even worse! Honestly I would be very surprised he's even brought to justice. When they catch him they will toss him in a room and throw away the room. The only reason they even bothered with the rapist charges was to make him easier to catch, now that every airport and border crossing agent will be looking for him, it's only a matter of time before they catch his ass. Maybe Osama bin Laden has some extra space in his cave for a roommate.

Much agreed Patrick.
