The aim of Wikileaks is to achieve just reform around the world and do it through the mechanism of transparency.

Let's say that, personally, I loved Hillary Clinton. Would WikiLeaks still publish this material? Of course it would. Otherwise, we would be censoring it. That's our mandate. It's actually interesting to think about what media organizations wouldn't publish such material if it was given to them.

The internet, our greatest tool of emancipation, has been transformed into the most dangerous facilitator of totalitarianism we have ever seen. The internet is a threat to human civilization.

Facebook in particular is the most appalling spying machine that has ever been invented.

I'm thinking of when the Qatari representative was given five minutes with Bill Clinton for a million dollar cheque.

When Enron collapsed, through court processes, thousands and thousands of emails came out that were internal, and it provided a window into how the whole company was managed. It was all the little decisions that supported the flagrant violations.

The only way to keep a secret is to never have one.
