http://www.huffingtonpost.com/zeynep-tufekci/wikileaks-erdogan- emails_b_11158792.html Jason, your analysis is insightful and well written. But I disagree with this paragraph. The above article gives a clear example of the problems with a "release all information" approach. Releasing government information that has no relevance to security (EG the amount of money spent on coffee and biscuits for government employees) might be harmless, but releasing information on citizens can be dangerous. Releasing the addresses of most women in a country has an obvious risk of facilitating stalking and rapes. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/ _______________________________________________ Free-software-melb mailing list Free-software-melb@lists.softwarefreedom.com.au http://lists.softwarefreedom.com.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/free-software-melb Free Software Melbourne home page: http://www.freesoftware.asn.au/melb/
