Wikileaks considers exposing verified Twitter users' data (Updated)
WikiLeaks once claimed to stand for the people against the shadowy, truth-occluding governments of the world (primarily, the United States). But the last couple years saw the organization swerve into questionable territory as an Associated Press report revealed that its mass disclosures had included personal information on hundreds of innocent people, including two teenage rape victims and a gay man living in the homosexuality-intolerant Saudi Arabia. Today, Wikileaks' Task Force sister organization tweeted that it is considering revealing the personal, financial and occupational information of every "verified" Twitter account.
CIA's WTF to investigate impact of WikiLeaks
We're not quite sure what's prompted all the hilarious names today, but the CIA has now formed a new group with an acronym of the likes we haven't seen since the days of Nixon's CREEP (or the Committee to Reelect the President). The WikiLeaks Task Force -- yeah, WTF -- has been charged with assessing the impact of the leaked cables on the agency's foreign relationships and operations, and it seems that the acronym has unsurprisingly already become the normal parlance at HQ. No word if the CIA is planning on holding a WTF BBQ to mark the occasion.
