Wikileaks

The widespread political revolution that is currently underway in the Middle East is largely attributable to Julian Assange and Wikileaks. This paradigm changing phenomena has altered human society, and by implication law across the planet as a consequence of the information age finally dawning on the ordinary citizen. Information and the secrecy assocated with such, was largely the monopoly of government and corporations. No more ! The manifest corruption of dictators and oligarchies has been exposed and social networks have served to further distribute previously secret information to the unbridled rage of usually law abiding citizens.

Please consider the video material on the BBC Doha Debates and comment on your perspective as to the dissemination of the information being legal or otherwise. Also mention your position as to positive or natural law and the moral legality of this action by Julian Assange.
