      "Dangerous" 😬😬😬 (From the leaked Twitter DM chats of Julian Assa—sorry "Wikileaks"— where "Wikileaks" says before the election that he hopes for a GOP win, coordinates trolling campaigns and exchanges anti-semitic/ misogynistic jokes with supporters.) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯pic.twitter.com/3T6pi2LG1E

      BTW the great transparency organization "Wikileaks" blocked me on Twitter when I pointed out their alleged "AKP emails" were political discussion groups of ordinary people and had zilch to do with the Turkish government. I guess truth is "dangerous." Accountability is dangerous.

      Whistleblowing is a powerful tool, a risk, and at times a duty on honorable people. Running around, dumping whatever you get your hands on without accountability, curation, concern or care isn't whistleblowing. At best, it's being a jerk. At worst, a tragic villain.

          I dunno. In the chats, he also calls me a "pseudo-Turk". 🤷‍♀️ Their accusations against me are all over the place and contradictory. Anyway, Assange got the GOP win he says he wanted, so there's that. https://twitter.com/mrgump7/status/1024298746572693506 …

          By the way, here's my NYT op-ed before the election. Wanton, uncurated, indiscriminate dumps aren't whistleblowing. They are authoritarian tools useful for smothering dissent. This is true even if a bit of information of public-interest was also released. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/05/opinion/what-were-missing-while-we-obsess-over-john-podestas-email.html …pic.twitter.com/NIInTScGFO

          By the way, Wikileaks is *still* hosting political email discussions of ordinary people from Turkey on its site, misrepresenting them as an "AKP email database." I got blocked for pointing this out. Others, too, tried to correct. TWO YEARS LATER, STILL NO CORRECTION. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯pic.twitter.com/bSBQ2vHmrk

          I never saw JA as a hero. Like Snowden & Manning he is an odd, slippery, & in many ways unlovely person. And yet, WL has done enormous good at times. We're better off with him.

          other way around. Any "enormous good" done by WL was thanks to Snowden and Manning giving him goods. Now his sources aren't whistleblowers but the GRU.

          Yet all that curation, concern, etc was there with the Manning release. What changed? The US govt persecution - on no legal grounds - of an Australian.
