Wikileaks cables reveal US pressuring Canada on IP enforcement

"Embassy Ottawa remains frustrated by the Government of Canada's continuing failure to introduce - let alone pass - major copyright reform legislation that would, inter alia, implement and ratify the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) Internet treaties." That's the opening line of a United States embassy dispatch sent to Washington, DC in February of 2008, now published by Wikileaks.

Anonymous vs. HBGary the aftermath

The RSA security conference took place February 14-18 in San Francisco, and malware response company HBGary planned on a big announcement. The firm was about to unveil a new appliance called "Razor," a specialized computer plugged into corporate networks that could scan company computers for viruses, rootkits, and custom malware - even malicious code that had never been seen before.

WikiLeaks alternative OpenLeaks goes live

OpenLeaks, the alternative whistleblower site created by WikiLeaks defectors, has officially gone live, though it's not yet fully operational.

Tweeting tyrants out of Tunisia the global Internet at its best

Even yesterday, it would have been too much to say that blogger, tweeters, Facebook users, Anonymous, and Wikileaks had "brought down" the Tunisian government, but with today's news that the country's president Zine El Abidine Ben Ali has fled the country, it becomes a more plausible claim to make.

How Wikileaks killed Spain’s anti-P2P law

Spain last night killed a controversial anti-P2P bill that would have made it easier to shut down websites that link to infringing content. The move was a blow to the ruling Socialist government, but it may be of even bigger concern to the US, which pushed, threatened, and cajoled Spain to clamp down on downloading. And Wikileaks can take a share of the credit for the defeat.

CIA’s WikiLeaks Task Force WTF, indeed

It s literally a WTF operation.

Czech version of Wikileaks will turn to The Pirate Bay for help

It appears that the Czech Pirate Party's attempt to set up its own Wikileaks site isn't going as smoothly as the group hoped. The CPP (Ceska piratska strana) announced the inauguration of its "PirateLeaks" information service earlier this month, to be officially launched on Tuesday. But now the organization says that there will be some delays due to security issues.

Sweden fights Assange bail as Michael Moore offers to host WikiLeaks

Controversial documentary director Michael Moore has offered up his help to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, both in the form of cash and other resources.

Operation Payback changes course, may be fizzling out

Operation: Payback, the Anonymous effort to conduct denial of service attacks against a wide range of targets has experienced something of a setback and is now changing course. Yesterday's arrest of a Dutch teenager has caused some difficulties for the group as well, as he was apparently the operator of an IRC server coordinating the attacks. The result: a change in course and what appears to be diminished enthusiasm on the part of 4chan denizens who make up the Anonymous collective.

OpenLeaks to mimic WikiLeaks – minus the political agenda

The alternative whistleblower site created by WikiLeaks defectors may launch sooner than later, according to Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter (DN). The project is being referred to as "OpenLeaks" and is reportedly on track to launch this coming Monday. Though the newspaper didn't name its sources, it's clear from the group's goals that the founders essentially want to be the anti-WikiLeaks.

First arrest made in WikiLeaks revenge attacks

4chan vigilante group Anonymous is used to getting away with its DDoS attacks and other Internet shenanigans, but that's not going to be the case this time around. An arrest has been made in 4chan's revenge attacks on PayPal, Visa, and MasterCard, begun after the companies stopped providing services to WikiLeaks. The first to go down is a Dutch 16-year-old boy, who has been arrested by the Dutch High Tech Crime Team and is being held for interrogation.

WikiLeaks mirrors multiply as main funding source gets cut off

The Internet may be working to take WikiLeaks offline, but the site's contents aren't going to disappear, thanks to hundreds of mirrors that popped up over the weekend. But even though more than 200 sites around the world now host the controversial leaked documents, WikiLeaks may face an all-too-familiar funding problem if it wants to continue publishing new leaks.
