Editor's Notes
2.Disclosures and leaks are not new, but never before a non-state or non –affiliate group has done anything on the scale that WL managed to do. It’s a consequence of the dramatic spread of IT use, together with the dramatic drop of its costs.
4.What is new about Wikileaks is that it empowers common people that otherwise wouldn’t have the chance to pass relevant information to the public domain. People like Brandley Manning, or like you, and you and me.
3.This enabled a stronger Collective intelligence: the ability of virtual communities to leverage the expertise of their members. “No one knows everything, everyone knows something, all knowledge resides in humanity”
What does Wikileaks and Social media have in common?
