#Wikileaks #Appelbaum : #US tracked email of Wikileaks volunteer: report
WASHINGTON — US authorities have obtained a secret court order to force search giant Google and a small Internet provider to hand over information from email accounts of a volunteer for whistleblower website WikiLeaks, a report said.
The Wall Street Journal, citing documents it had reviewed, said the Internet service provider Sonic had been forced to turn over the data from the email of Wikileaks volunteer Jacob Appelbaum.
Sonic said it resisted the order but lost the legal battle, and had to pass on the information on email addresses Appelbaum had corresponded with over the past two years, according to the Journal.
Appelbaum, 28, has not been charged with any criminal conduct, while the financial daily said Google and Sonic had both called for him to be informed of the secret court order that targeted him.

#wikileaks #assange :#Guardians David Leigh No Better Than Murdoch !
Quote:
David Leigh, the Guardian's "investigations editor", told journalism students at City University that Assange was a "Frankenstein monster" who "didn't used to wash very often" and was "quite deranged". When a puzzled student asked why he said that, Leigh replied: "Because he doesn't understand the parameters of conventional journalism. He and his circle have a profound contempt for what they call the mainstream media." According to Leigh, these "parameters" were exemplified by Bill Keller when, as editor of the New York Times, he co-published the WikiLeaks disclosures with the Guardian. Keller, said Leigh, was "a seriously thoughtful person in journalism" who had to deal with "some sort of dirty, flaky hacker from Melbourne".
Last November, the "seriously thoughtful" Keller boasted to the BBC that he had taken all WikiLeaks's war logs to the White House so that the government could approve and edit them. In the run-up to the Iraq war, the New York Times published a series of now notorious CIA-inspired claims that weapons of mass destruction existed. Such are the "parameters" that have made so many people cynical about the so-called mainstream media....read more from John Pilger
