| Expelled Wikileaks Spokesman Destroyed Unpublished Files |
| 2011-08-23 |
| Former WikiLeaks spokesman Daniel Domscheit-Berg claims to have destroyed more than 3,500 unpublished files obtained from unknown informants. The information they contained is now apparently lost, irrevocably. The documents in question were stored on the WikiLeaks server until late summer 2010, when Domscheit-Berg left the organization, taking the files with him upon his departure. Documents from the database included the United States government's so-called No-Fly list. Hard to believe Wikileaks would maintain only a single copy of anything. |

Hard to maintain control over things if there are multiple copies, and Assmange has shown he's a MASSIVE control freak. |

| #2 Well, unauthorized acquisition was there first. I think that the destruction was not something Uncle Sam was unhappy about. |

| #1 I believe it used to be called.... "Unauthorized destruction of classified documents and US Gov't property." |
