Where's Wikileaks?
Whistleblower site Wikileaks, winner of last year’s Economist/Index on Censorship New Media award, seems to have disappeared.
The site hit the news this week when it published a secret list of sites blocked by the Danish government. In response, Australia blocked Wikileaks.
Inevitably, Wikileaks then published the Australians’ list of banned sites. And now, no one seems to be able to access Wikileaks.
Global censorship? Or just too much traffic?
Update: it’s back, seemingly intact.
