1984






do not fuck with these guys.  and do not let their toothy grins conceal their hatred for freedom of press. a lawyer representing their swiss banking institution, bank julius baer, managed to shut down the website Wikileaks.org.  the whole concept of the site was to provide a first amendment safe haven for whistle-blowers to anonymously upload controversial documents.   the charges brought by the bank involved "stolen" documents relating to tax evasion and offshore assets, ultimately convincing a california judge to order the immediate suspension of the entire Wikileaks site.  Wikileaks has posted the entire frustrating email correspondence here on their unaffected foreign servers:   Wikileaks & BJB

keep on rockin' in the free world!
