Technology and the sharing of information and ideas has brought me to the level of success that I enjoy everyday. I also stand in favor for the Open Internet and Net Neutrality, which everyone seems to be talking about these days. BUT, there is a line. There is a clear line that keeps the Internet from being completely Open and keeps the Net from being totally Neutral. There are firewalls and security measures for a reason. Some better than others, mine better than all others. With that, this Julian Assange punk needs to wake up. I am one of the biggest critics of the US Department of Defense. With that said, screw you Julian and your moronic move to make military government documents available online.
From what I have heard about this guy, he is all about information for everyone and he believes he will “unveil” oppressive regimes abroad. Hey buddy, you’re not going to magically unveil anything involving unknown oppressive regimes. We know about them and they are being taken care of by people who do this for a living. Another thing, those documents are not made available for a reason. This Internet thing you posted on can be accessed by anyone; meaning your neighbor, a local insane terrorist, and THE ACTUAL NATIONS WE ARE FIGHTING AGAINST. Is this part of your genius plan?
To be clear, I do not care too much about the works of the regimes that Julian posted. What I do care about is that this schmuck thinks its ok to put up military documents concerning our involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan. Soldiers are still dying over there! We are still fighting. Even though you might not give two cold ones about our involvement there, millions of other people do. I should pick you up tomorrow, drop you in one of those military zones, and start taking some pictures of you peeing your pants as tanks roll by. Wouldn’t that be a great leak!
I see you are spending you’re time bouncing around from country to country so no one can catch you either. Many people have similar intentions as you do. Open Government! Wahoo! Yea, the government can’t unveil our missions when at war. It’s something that no government does, try to wrap your head around that. There are explicit and, I hope for your sake, obvious reasons for that.
I leave you with some words of advice. I have seen people like you before come and go. Nonetheless, you can post and talk as much as you want about civil unrest in countries where leaders probably as boneheaded as you. That’s fine. People should be recognizing the whole world is not like their hometown. However, if you do choose post a single document regarding current military affairs in wars abroad, we might have to spend some time together. And in that time I’m sure I could manage to make you even bigger online than you are right now. I don’t care if Time Magazine thinks you’re cool. On that note, no one thinks that cover of Time Magazine is cool.
