Where is the Wikileaks cyber war headed?

London, UK - 10th December 2010, 15:35 GMT

Dear ATCA Open & Philanthropia Friends

[Please note that the views presented by individual contributors are not necessarily representative of the views of ATCA, which is neutral. ATCA conducts collective Socratic dialogue on global opportunities and threats.]

Where is the Wikileaks cyber war headed? Was it prudent to cut off its access to payments and hosting given the subsequent cyber attacks on Visa, Mastercard, Paypal and Amazon as well as the Swedish government? There are new threats emerging to the British government infrastructure in regard to the extradition of Julian Assange to Sweden. In the interim, what's the cost of the online collateral damage to ordinary businesses and eCommerce worldwide? What are your views?
