Event Details

WikiLeaks, OpenLeaks, and Our Right to Know


Although Herbert Snorrason and Daniel Domscheit-Berg, both former staffers at WikiLeaks, cannot enter the United States for fear of arraignment, they join us live by video from Iceland and Germany to answer questions about the necessity of and danger in leaking state secrets. With Wendy Ballinger, Treasurer and former Executive Director of Ford Hall Forum, Snorrason and Domscheit-Berg discuss why their newest venture, OpenLeaks, is superior to Assange’s WikiLeaks model and other various “Leaks” sites launching around the world. The two will tell us how and why they became involved with WikiLeaks, particularly their idea on the public’s right to know versus global security.

 

Free and Open to the Public

Signed Copies of Domscheit-Berg's book "Inside WikiLeaks" will be available for purchase.

Thursday, March 24, 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.
