WikiLeaks is a large-scale document leakage and analysis website, established in December 2006, with the purpose of exposing government and corporate corruption. Julian Paul Assangeis its founder. He has majored in physics and mathematics, and has worked as a programmer and hacker. He believes that disclosing secret documents and information of public governance institutions is a good thing for the public, but Daniel Bergdisagrees with this concept, because if they themselves don’t know what information they want to publish, It is likely to kill a lot of people. This is not their original intention. On July 26, 2010, WikiLeaks, with the cooperation of the New York Times and other media, published as many as 92,000 secret documents of the US military in Afghanistan on the Internet, which became an annual incident

Social Network is too awesome, believe me, after ten years "The King's Speech" is just a well-established literary sketch, and Social Network will be that kind of landmark work... But I'm curious what Zizek will think of this Movies... Of course, I can guess what he will write even if he doesn't write, anyway, "they" will always write the same thing~

Daniel Berg: We're going to have to push back publication, there's no way we can release in four days.
Julian Assange: Fourteen pages in the Guardian. Twelve in the New York Times. This is more coverage than all of the leaks we have had combined. We're winning an information war, which goes beyond any short or eternal lines we have with the mainstream media, and you want to throw it all away because you fear that some US government informant might come to harm?
Daniel Berg: These are human beings, Julian. There are lives at stake!
Julian Assange: And what about the lives of the soldiers and the civilians involved in these conflicts? Death squads, unreported civilian casualties, countless incidents of friendly fire - this is information THE WORLD NEEDS TO KNOW! So the next time you find yourself lecturing me about this organisation, please try to remember, why I created it and why I hired you to help me.
Daniel Berg: That's funny. I don't remember you hiring me. I don't recall a contract, or a salary. But I guess I should have known when I met Jay Lim. There is no organisation. There's just you, and your ego. And the lies you tell to get whatever the fuck you want!
Julian Assange: You know it's incredible, how much time you can spend with a person and still have no idea who they are.
[pause]
Julian Assange: You're suspended. Effective immediately.

Julian Assange: I've heard people say I dangle on the autistic spectrum. Probably why I lean so heavily on those around me.
