Looks like Julian Assange can add another hat to his collection of names he’s being called. Called a ‘slave driver‘ by some of his workers, Assange is losing some key members of his staff. These budding leakers are planning to open a whistleblower site of their own named Openleaks.
According to the Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter, the new site will be called “Openleaks,” and like its predecessor, will allow whistleblowers to leak information to the public anonymously. However, the new site will differ in that it won’t be responsible for hosting the information itself directly for the public eye, but will instead act as an intermediary between whistleblowers and media organizations.
“Our long term goal is to build a strong, transparent platform to support whistleblowers–both in terms of technology and politics–while at the same time encouraging others to start similar projects,” a colleague wishing to remain anonymous is quoted by Dagens Nyheter as saying.

Sounds good to me, I think there are enough **secrets** out there to support both WikiLeaks and OpenLeaks.
During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act. George Orwell
This is all very old news. It is at least trash, and it may be psy-ops.
First, read Greenwald on Kevin Poulsen (Wired) and Adrian Lamo: http://www.salon.com/news/opinion/glenn_greenwald/2010/06/18/wikileaks
Then understand that “Daniel Schmitt” — Daniel Domscheit-Berg — talked to Poulsen behind Assange/WL’s back in the summer. He also talked to Newsweek. He is the ONLY WL staffer to have been suspended (he then quit). He’s also married to Microsoft Berlin (literally). H
Snorasson is a kid who was never a staffer. And then you’ve got lots of anonymous attributions.
Read WL Central. Stay away from the CIA/DIA.
I’m not sure why the media is calling this a “rival” and looking for juicy quotes. Then again, I’ve long stopped expecting most journalists to act like journalists.
The “beauty” of Wikileaks is that the raw information is there. WIth “Openleaks” all they will do is pass it on if they feel like it. Do we really need a middle man? I see the defectors has having failed Wikileaks and wanting to make money. How long until a Domschelt-Berg tell-all book hits Chapters?
We can’t deny the fact that, no-one wants their corruption exposed. There are very few citizens, that don’t know, how corrupt their governments and politicians are. I think, Wikileaks or Openleaks, are definitely a good thing. Perhaps, governments will be more careful, about their underhandedness. Premier Campbell of BC, is one good liar, deceiver and has sunk low enough, to tell two blatant election lies. In fact the province of BC, has Canadian Intelligence keeping an eye on it.
