I read through the pdf and didn’t see anything particularly damaging. Doesn’t make it right, but still. They’ll get shut down in a heartbeat if they release anything of value because I guarantee our guys are already watching them.

Amazing that WikiLeaks appears to “specialize” in leaking mostly American state secrets. Unbelievable gall!

Los Angeles announced a similar system almost ten years ago. They said murders would cease immediately because police would be on the scene before the echoes died down. We all know that "gun crimes" in LA are now zero, and their success was so great that not only has no other city adopted it, but the LA pols seem to have forgotten about their great system.

Shut down by who? I don't even think they're in the USA. It looks like their main site is in Germany (see bottom of Wikileak site main page). Problem is, if the US Gov takes action against them, they can just move whatever US content servers they have overseas.

Frankly, I'd like to know how they got such materials in the first place. Someone with electronic access to sensitive/classified information is copying it over to unclassified/unsupervised systems. This itself is a violation of US Code 10--10 years in jail/$10,000 fine per violation.
