Wikileaks is a mechanism to maximize the flow of information to maximize the amount of action leading to just reform.
WikiLeaks is designed to make capitalism more free and ethical.
Let's face it: WikiLeaks exists because the mainstream media haven't done their job.
The work of WikiLeaks is with principal documentary evidence; that's where the truth lies. It gets to the heart of the matter. It educates people and in turn empowers them.
One possible future for WikiLeaks is to morph into a gigantic media intermediary - perhaps, even something of a clearing house for investigative reporting - where even low-level leaks would be matched with the appropriate journalists to pursue and report on them and, perhaps, even with appropriate NGOs to advocate on their causes.
There are many people, including me, who admire the original mission of WikiLeaks.

WikiLeaks presents a clear and present danger to the national security of the United States.
If WikiLeaks were a for-profit company, determining its real value would be a nearly impossible task.
WikiLeaks is what happens when the entire U.S. government is forced to go through a full-body scanner.
