This article discusses how Wikileaks could be in danger of shutting down. Barrack Obama has designated someone in control of all infiltration, someone to prevent more documents from being leaked, and the FBI as well as the Pentagon are investigating how these leaks were even possible. Amazon was wikileak's original network provider, but recently it withdrew its support, and denied users access to the page. Now, Assange is being accused of sexually assaulting two Swedish women last summer. A red alert, for the arrest of Assange had been released by Interpol in November, before the massive leak of secret documents. This crime might put an end to Wikileaks, which would make many governments around the world rest easier.
Many members of government see Wikileaks as a threat, admiral Mike Mullen said that Assange has hands stained with blood, he does not believe that the general public should have access to such sensitive material, because this material could also get into the hands of U.S enemies.
I think that Wikileaks is the result of a government that is far from transparent. If governments were more willing to reveal the terrible things they have done, as well as the good, the public would not have to resort to a whistle blowing website for the truth.
