Quantum computing will break the fuck out of encryption though but we're not close enough to it yet. I don't know too much about encryption, but I thought that this seemed like a neat story. http://www.popsci.com/technology/article/2010-08/quantum-hackers-use-lasers-crack-quantum-encryption-scheme-leaving-no-trace | ||

in another thought, i wonder how USA will react if Assange get nominated for Nobel peace prize for his anti-war activism. i like to see Obama, also a Nobel prize winner, offer his opinions on the matter. | ||

Those people are obviously just blabbing retarded shit and I am sure they do believe it,but Sarah Palin and Fox news are not spokesmen for the American government. That doesn't mean it would actually happen. This guy being assassinated wouldn't help the situation at all for the US with or without the "insurance". | ||

They called Wikileaks a terrorist organization and toyed with the idea that they should assassinate its founders and stuff... It really doesn't get more obvious than that.That's like when 'psychics' call people who expose them "evil/Satanistic". The saddest thing is that some people actually buy it.. This might get pretty bad soon.. | ||

Where did he say he wanted him locked up? Pretty sure he was stating what he thought of as the "ideal situation for the us". Not his personal beliefs on what should happen with the guy. | ||

Seems like the US is pretty much forcing the issue and trying to get other countries to arrest him for very debatable charges. | ||

And it's a good thing we have people like him willing to go to jail for doing the right thing, even if it involves breaking the law. They remind the rest of us what the whole concept of principles are for. | ||
