A brilliant summary of the Wikileaks/Julian Assange situation from MF
"My ability to decide how I feel about Wikileaks' activities is totally annihilated by my ongoing realization that it cannot possibly be real. It's a plot device in a near-future thriller novel. I mean, seriously, semi-stateless man with an unusual appearance uses an army of anonymous allies to expose governments' secrets, and posts an insurance file in public with some kind of deadman switch in case he's taken out by his enemies? That shit does not happen in real life. Julian Assange is a Neal Stephenson character who's escaped in to the real world." -
