WikiLeaks Morphing Into a New Form of CyberTerrorism

Would Mr. Assange have leaked the facts about the Enigma Machine to the World (including the Germans) during WW II?

Is the world now to have the course of diplomacy, and defence, and crime investigation, and countermeasures against global extremism decided by a zealot hacker with a simplistic "leak all" philosophy, free of responsibility or answerability for the outcome till the damage is done?

Openness has its virtues, but also its vices (as does secrecy), and the devil is in the details. Is the rather secretive Mr. Assange and his coterie of hackers more to be trusted to sort out those diabolical details than elected, answerable governments (and their vices)?

Assange is entitled to play Russian Roulette with his own life, but not with the lives of the rest of the planet's inhabitants. He is not our appointed arbiter of openness.
