Wikileaks is only dangerous if you are not telling the truth.

I support the fourth amendment, and I think releasing classified information or private emails is abhorrent.

The lessons to be learned are that you need to keep private things private, and secret things off from the internet. The world kept rotating smoothly all of these years without the internet.

We taught our kids that ANYTHING you type onto an internet connected computer can show up on the front page of the newspaper tomorrow.

And strong passwords. Make sure you have very strong passwords. Not “password.”

I wonder how these “smart” people can be so stupid.

Add to your comments the lesson that our national Internet and offices must have secure software. If we are being hacked this easily, it is because someone somewhere has not been using the most secure methods and technology! If the most up to date is not secure than our brightest need to develop better. It’s a lesson we MUST learn.

And if you do use the word password for password, don’t discuss the secret things you do to children.
