Greenberg posted an excerpt from his book This Machine Kills Secrets<\/em>, on Wired Magazine website. In the excerpt, Greenberg travels all around the world to find the next big WikiLeaks. Greenberg found himself in East Germany at an elite hacktivist<\/p>\n

organization. There were groups of liveliness individuals, whose goals were to destroy the world\u2019s institutional privacy. Daniel Domscheit-Berg<\/a> who was a active member at this organization, was a member and key contributor of the WikiLeaks. Daniel at the camp in Germany hoped to endeavor to create a WikiLeaks spin-off, called Open Links. WikiLeaks was an international organization that published anonymous submissions, and leaks of unavailable documents while preserving the anonymity of sources. WikiLeaks revealed a lot of whistle blowing, and had some complications with leaker\u2019s identities. Domscheit-Berg thought that only major players should have access to the OpenLeaks site of activism.<\/p>\n

The difference between the two is that OpenLeaks differs in the way that leaked information that individuals post to media and non-profit organizations will be completely anonymous and untraceable.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em>The long-gestating system is designed to allow the same anonymous whistleblowing as WikiLeaks, but unlike the parent project where Domscheit- Berg spent three years of his life, OpenLeaks isn\u2019t designed to actually make anything public. Instead, it aims to securely pass on leaked content to partnered media organizations and nonprofits, avoiding the dicey role of publisher that got WikiLeaks into so much trouble. It will focus, Domscheit- Berg says, on the most technically tricky and crucial link in the leaking chain: untraceable anonymous uploads.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u00a0<\/em>Although this site did not publish, I feel like it would be a good place for people to come together anonymously and provide illegal information. A lot more people, in my opinion would come forth and reveal information if their identity was withheld, not appointed, or even acknowledged. This site would be great system too see what really is going on in our corrupt society we live in today. \u00a0People would be more willing to tell, and give information don\u2019t you think?<\/p>\n

How do you feel about this topic?<\/p>\n
