Wikilosers

Wikileaks may have put lives in danger in China, and for what? The New York Times:

A Chinese intellectual, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he feared exposure, said the disclosures had left some Chinese who had had contact with United States diplomats “nervous” about the possibility of persecution by the authorities, who had blocked access in China to the WikiLeaks Web site.

Some people have been saying blithely that the era of secrecy in diplomacy is over. Too bad for the billions still living under tyrannical or authoritarian regimes such as those in Iran, North Korea, or China, where dissidents and other sources of vital information will think twice about trusting an American diplomatic or intelligence contact again.

A Good Message For Thanksgiving

A site called Wikileaks has released 500,000 IMs sent the morning of Sept. 11, including this one:
Honey wanted to tell you how much i love you. I was a little worried. I Don't want to lose you now that I got you back. You mean everything to me. You have my whole heart and life. I love you so much.
We don't know who sent it or if anyone received it. But we can still borrow it.
