loquitor---from what you've written, i dont see any evidence that you've read anything that assange has written....i dont see any evidence that you understand what assange and/or wikileaks understands openness to be about. you seem to confuse him with a whistle-blower of some kind. what wikileaks is about is smarter and more radical than that.

and that assange is not the whole of wikileaks is simply a fact. it's not so much a fact in the tactical context of character assasination. but that seems a line you want to pursue. so it makes sense that you'd prefer to pretend the opposite of the factual situation is the case. but that's really just a function of your tactical choices.
