Open letter to the Department of Justice
To Whom It May Concern
We are regretful of your actions to attempt to retrieve information from Twitter about the account belonging to "Wikileaks", as by doing so you are
attempting to remove the anonymity of the poster and by extension, their right to speech. We are confused as to why you have brought such a subpoena
against Twitter, as there is little information you will gain from these details, leaving comments and observations on the world are to our
understanding; not a criminal offence
Is this not the same type of action that you, DOJ, find reprehensible in other countries? How do you justify the same action in the US? No crime has
been committed yet you assume that the populace at large will just "roll over" as always and allow this intrusion.
The time has come for the people of the world to take an active part in governing their own lives and freedoms. The world must become aware that its
freedoms are in jeopardy. Today, Twitter, tomorrow, what? Recent events have shown that people are becoming tired of being treated this way. Why push
an unwinnable confrontation when working for the same goal is always more productive (learn from history).
The US Government expressed concern over the Tunisian Government's actions when they attacked protesters' Facebook accounts. Is there a difference
here? They attack and you use the "law" (loosely defined) to in essence do the same thing. What's the possible difference? Your motives are the
same.
Yours Faithfully

We do not forgive. We do not forget.
If like myself you have subscribed to Wikileaks on Twitter, It is your information that "they" want!
