À l'évidence, des centaines de millions de personnes ont déjà compris qu'en attaquant Assange, les tenants du pouvoir et de l'argent attaquent aussi les citoyens et leurs droit inaliénable à l'information... TOUTE l'information et tout spécialement, celle que les gouvernements leurs cachent.
Voici un message d'appel à la solidarité pour défendre Assange, une sorte de "sorcière des temps modernes"...
- WikiLeaks petition and news
This is not about copyright per se, but I think it's very much related and is likely to be of interest to members of this group.
From the preamble to the Avaaz WikiLeaks petition:
"The vicious intimidation campaign against WikiLeaks is wrong, dangerous and undermines the rule of law. Top US politicians have branded WikiLeaks a terrorist organization, suggested assassinating its staff, and urged corporations to shut it down.
The future of our freedoms and the Internet is at stake. Let's urgently take a stand to ensure governments and companies act with restraint and due process, not escalate this fight."
It's gathering signatures at a rate of over one per second.
The campaign to silence WikiLeaks mirrors the attempts to abuse copyright to limit legitimate artistic expression. Amazon even used the ownership of the leaked documents - copyright - as their excuse for suspending the WikiLeaks account, When in fact the US government does not hold copyright in documents it produces.
WikiLeaks Central follows and summarizes news and blog posts.
Il faut que Julian Assange sache qu'il n'est pas seul alors faites-vous entendre!
