Recently a judge shut down a website called Wikileak because a cayman islands bank asked him to.  Wikileak provides a website for those individuals who have whistle blower information against corporations, banks and the federal government.  And the judge shut them down.  Wikileak has posted articles such as a military manual for the operation of the detention center at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.  I'd like to know that!  I'd like to know how people are being tortured in the name of American safety.  All I can say is I hope that this goes to a higher court and gets overturned.  If this isn't "abridging freedom of speech" I don't know what is.  This is even speech that can protect people and expose the bad guys.  It makes me sick.  Heres the complete article http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/20/us/20wiki.html?ref=technology  and according to the article you can get to Wikileak still with this http://88.80.13.160/wiki/Wikileaks.  And you can.
