WikiLeaks (The Most Dangerous Sites In The World)

Background Thought Assange

Not a few parties who alleged that Julian Assange with his WikiLeaks just want to disrupt the world. Many countries had a chance to panic due to leaked secrets published WikiLeaks. United States as a superpower, the world's premier ruler, appears to be a special target of WikiLeaks. Does WikiLeaks want the United States to collapse? So what kind of world order do they want?In response, Assange is accused of inserting anarchy, in some sources mentioned that he did adhere to anarchism. Anarchism is a political philosophy that considers that the state is undesirable, unnecessary, and even detrimental. Instead, anarchism promotes a society without a state, or anarchy. It seeks to reduce or even eliminate power in the conduct of human relationships.Assange once quoted Gustav Landauer in one of his writings. Laudeuer was one of the foremost theorists of anarchism in Germany in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Fellow Assange at Icelandic WikiLeaks, Birgitta Jonsdottir, also has anarchist political views. In addition, Assange seems to have no loyalty to a country, he is always on the move and even says he will never live in one place again.On December 3, 2006, Assange wrote an essay entitled Conspiracy as Governance at www.iq.org. In the essay, he dismisses a kind of manifesto, which seeks to apply graph theory to politics. Assange writes that an evil government will conspire to protect secrecy and work to harm the people. There he argues that when the internal line of a regime's communications is disrupted, the information flow among conspirators will shrink, and as the information flow approaches zero, the conspiracy breaks out. Assange then proposed a leak as an information war tool.In essence, the essay of Conspiracy as Governance can be broken down into three main sections. First, Assange explains what a conspiracy is and how the process is formed. Second, why this conspiracy is undoubtedly dangerous. Third, the leak is the optimal weapon to dismantle the conspiracy.At the beginning, Assange reminded that the regime does not want to be changed. Therefore, it requires clear and courageous thinking. According to Assange, in changing the regime, we must study the ways our predecessors have used, and then find technological changes that provide new ways to act. Assange invites to always act while witnessing injustice. "Whenever we do not act while witnessing actions we feel unfair, we become part of the injustice. Those who are passive many times in the face of injustice will soon find their corrupt character to be a slave character, "wrote Assange.Furthermore, Assange explained that conspiracy is a kind of cognitive device that acts on the basis of information obtained from the environment. Therefore, the distortion or limitation of this input will disrupt the conspiracy performance. Computer programmers call this effect "garbage in, garbage out." Usually it works the other way around, the conspiracy itself that is the agent of the restrictions and fraud of that information.In the United States, the term programmers are sometimes called As the "Fox News effect".Based on that view, Assange proposed the need to create a leak in the flow of information between conspirators. As soon as the information leaked out, it was no longer held tight and no longer valuable no longer a resource for the conspiracy network. The network no longer has an advantage. Now, the network can detect leaks, and will act to preserve the information. In this case, the network undergoes a kind of fission. He will break the leaky and breakaway communication chain.The more secrets a regime keeps or the more unfair a regime, the greater the leak will generate fear and paranoia among its leaders and planning groups. In other words, leaks will make it harder for them to run a malicious conspiracy.Assange finally stated that new technologies and knowledge of the psychological motivations of conspirators could provide a practical method to prevent or reduce key communications between authoritarian conspirators, trigger strong resistance to authoritarian planning, and create strong incentives for more humane forms of government.With that in mind that Julian Assange founded WikiLeaks.

The life of Julian assange post-wikiLeaks

      An investigative journalist in a case of defamation, he was alleged to have undermined the name of Swedish industrialist Hans-Erik Wennerstrom. The owner of the monthly magazine of the Stockholm-based Milennium was sentenced to three months in jail. That's the risk faced by Mikael Blomkvist. Indeed, as a large professional life is defined to reveal and report suspicious transactions, specialized in banking and business. He displays the image of the moral guardian of the business world.      Blomkvist is a fictional character set by author Stieg Larson as the main character in the Millennium Triology with Lisbeth Salander. As a widower with one daughter, along this trilogy Blomkvist has many lovers, including a brief relationship with Lisbeth Salander.      The readers of this trilogy may be surprised to see how much the story resembles with the life of Julian Assange. The founder of Wikileaks is like one of Larsson's computer geniuses who outlaws criminals and powerful people of the world. Or the younger Mikael Blomkvist, with an Australian accent. Our amazement will increase if we compare the hacker alias name in the trilogy with the hackers in Assange's life. In the Underground book written Suelette Dreyfus with Julian Assange, there are hacker characters named Prime Suspect and Mendax. While Larsson has a hacker named Wasp, Plague, and Mandrake.Larsson died seven years ago. But is it possible that the author of the Swedish criminal tale ever met Assange? Assange first visited Sweden in the 1990s and Wikileaks was hosted by a major server in Sweden, where the identity of confidential sources is protected by law.       Of course, this did not prove anything, and Wikileaks just moved its main server to Sweden two years ago, after Julius Baer Bank tried to close the site. However, to satisfy this curiosity, an Australian journalist, Nikki Barrowclough, sent an e-mail to Eva Gabrielsson, widow of Larsson's late, to ask if they had ever met Assange. After telling the story of the Underground book, Barrow-clough explained to Gabrielsson that Underground has a large interest in Sweden.      "About Julian Assange why did not you ask him?" Gabrielsson said in his reply. When Nikki Barrowclough gets a chance to meet with Julian Assange in Malbourne, he asks the question directly to the person. "I never met Stieg Larsson," Assange replied.
