Interesting aside: what are the legal consequences of donating to an organization that is branded a "terrorist organization"? Can you be punished retroactively?


There, I just donated 50 euros. I'll let you know if I get audited. Of course if they do, they'll just end up owing me money.


Whew, just in time! Paypal caved!


Yes. These lawless people will do anything they want under color of law. Do not expect rationality or good faith from them. Expect savagery.

[Note: I'll interpret the down-votes as disagreement. I hope you're right. But I think donation require courage. Just make sure you can withstand an audit. I don't think you have to worry about orange jump suits yet, Peter King notwithstanding.]


I hope the down-voters are right. I'm skeptical that they are.


Also here's a list of Wikileaks mirrors:

It's actually a whole range of addresses 213.251.145.96 - 213.251.145.111

Pure speculation, but I wonder who is behind the DDoS? My guess would be the RBN.


it doesn't work for me (Sydney/ Austraia) :(


I'm pretty sure I read that Australia is blocking access to Wikileaks.


And how, exactly, would Australia do that? (block an IP address?)

BTW: Also in Sydney - working here now.


No idea. Could be very wrong.


Its working here in India.
