Wikileaks

WIKILEAKS We made a decision! Secrecy is evil! So we reveal the secrets of our democracies (they probably won’t kill us if they catch us) Our leader’s face is visible, public, smug, and confined to a foreign embassy! You have no idea who we are! For your sake, of course, we share stolen secrets with dictators, tech firms and people we don’t even know! We expose the surveillance scheme, the diplomatic lie, the unauthorized weapon but our bleak revelations are a moral black hole: What is secret or hidden, whether for better or worse is revealed by a cadre un-elected and unknown! You have no idea who we are! You have no idea what to believe! We do this for you! Secrecy is bad! You have no idea who we are! Do you trust us yet? Hey! Do you trust us now?
