This story is not about linux directly, but it is about
openness in speech, and use of technology that is likely foss
technology. More importantly, it is a topic of great value to all
journalistic sites. It is also very interesting from an informed
individual.It is an interview with Julian Assange of wikileaks. Really
shames government representatives (with calls for illegal murders,
failures of due process, attack on first amendment rights, etc)
while encouraged that silent majority is in fact getting organized
slowly but surely. Sets record straight on misinformation on
wikileaks and how many more good journalists are at a greater risk
because of how they normally manage their anonymous sources. Even
mentions how he did not know Private Manning until he made the news
and how problematic is how he is being treated. Mentions EU and
world having serious doubts about US approach to justice, etc. Also
states how the US meets the definition of terrorist rather than
wikileaks.

Internet, free speech, and civil rights.
