\"\"<\/a>Wikileaks.org<\/a> today released 250,000 U.S. diplomatic cables that have apparently caused grave concern in Western governments.\u00a0 The documents have already revealed that the U.S. has been spying on the United Nations Secretary General.\u00a0 Also, Wikileaks is currently under a massive cyber attack that began early Sunday morning.\u00a0 We can easily guess who is behind that.<\/p>\n

The U.K.’s Guardian newspaper<\/a> has been given the document release files by Wikileaks.\u00a0 You can go and explore the database here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And in case you didn’t realize it, this is why President Obama wants an ’emergency’ switch to shut down the Internet in the U.S.<\/p>\n
