Not everything is about protest, some of these events are actually about discussing the contents of WikiLeaks and the media service itself. Several events and protests are scheduled for Australia, Canada, Austria, the UK, Germany and the US. There should be far more than there are currently. I robust, open, discourse about the information that Wikileaks is putting out will prevent the governments of the world for squashing your right to know what they are doing because they won’t be able to stop us all, nor should they try. The more they push against Wikileaks and the information, the more guilty they look. Presently, the US looks pretty damned guilty to me based on its actions.Reprinted from WL Central
