re: #227 Fozzie Bear

You still don’t get it. He’s a rather unpalatable canary that, if literally chased off the grid, spells bad, bad things for the future of the internet.

Free, open, and anonymous communication is far more important than getting rid of Assange.

Perhaps the internet accelerates the dissemination of the material but the root cause is not entirely an “internet problem” nor encryption. The root cause of course was the security risk created by none other than Bradley Manning and the inter-agency sharing of classified information which in this case was retrieved at the Pentagon. Manning did not hack his way to this information he simply had direct access to it.
