These days everyone is talking about not just Wikileaks, but the wave of scandals that have arisen after that site to reveal secrets about 250,000 cables. Will it be a Guinness record? First things first, What is Wikileaks? In English "leak" refers to a leak or a leak. Literally, "Wiki-leaks." To learn more about this subject, I visited Wikileaks page to read the description to make themselves:
Wikileaks is a nonprofit organization of media. Our goal is to bring news and information to the public. We offer an innovative, secure and anonymous sources leaking information to our reporters (our mailbox). One of our most important activities is the publication of original material along with our news stories for readers and historians alike can see the evidence of the truth. We are a young organization that has grown very quickly, based on a network of volunteers around the world. Since 2007, when the organization was officially launched, Wikileaks has worked to report and publish the information. Also, develop and adapt technologies to support these activities.
later added:
The release improves transparency and transparency creates a better society for all. Better control leads to less corruption and more democracy in all institutions of society, including government, corporations and other organizations. The media healthy, vibrant, curious play a vital role in achieving these objectives. We are part of the media.
Up here we have, apart from a statement of principles that declare a media, important legal details to be confirmed or rejected by the authorities, as an action so bold as that undertaken is never free of consequences. Seeing the news
not find that governments generally deny all that has come to light. Some are upset by the fact that many secrets have been revealed, other because they knew that their "allies" had such a bad impression on them. According to published
World, Spain, the U.S. embassy in Rome Esato Berlusconi mentions "a natural leader and politically weak" because of "His frequent late nights and his penchant for parties, they do not get enough rest."
criticizes U.S. diplomats also affect its main allies, the English, particularly Gordon Brown and David Cameron: The first, a cable is a type says "unstable." The second, we quote some words from the Bank of England Governor Mervyn King, who said he lacked "depth"
German Chancellor Angela Merkel, is referred to as someone "very creative" Sarkozy thinks "is is authoritarian and abrupt manner, "Putin considered as an" alpha male "and Russian President Dimitri Medvedev as president "Pale and indecisive" and highly dependent on Putin. At this point one may wonder if the diplomats and U.S. rulers do not want anyone or if they feel perfect.
To make matters worse, between the secret reports revealed, is mentioned interest in knowing the mental state of the president of Argentina, as published by Clarin :
How Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner control your nerves and anxiety? How does stress affect their behavior with their advisors and / or its decision-making process? What measures does she or her advisers to manage stress? Do you take any medication? Under what circumstances she handles stress better? How do emotions affect your decision making process and how quiet when distressed?.
According to that article, the reports exchanged between the United States Embassy in Buenos Aires and the State Department, did not speak well of Kirchner:
The Kirchner are "paranoid power," "acid," " imperbeables the advice of others "and" inept foreign policy. " K style is "erratic and characterized by extreme stress in the short term." Nestor Kirchner had "two faces", as "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde "Stevenson, a" populist "and a" pragmatic. " His "sympathies for the left" were "completely subordinate to their political interests and personal ambitions."
At the time of this writing, the Argentine government has not issued official statements. Meanwhile, Wikileaks soon threatens to reveal important information about a U.S. bank .
whole thing opens up an important debate with interesting questions: Is it ethically correct what was done to Wikileaks now? Is it legal? Is it positive or negative for all of us ordinary citizens, have that data? How far does a country's right to know every last detail of the rulers earliest in China? How much of all this are entitled to know us? And above all ... how goes the story? Does it mark a turning point in the history of freedom of expression and the right to know what is happening around us? Do not forget: many times governments have tried to limit our access to the internet and our ability to publish freely in blogs .
