Things have been moving so fast over the last five days I haven’t had a chance to come up for air. This entire ordeal has completely taken over my life, just when I think things are calming down, some gigantic media outlet comes out with another story about Wikileaks that includes the erroneous “fact” that […]

Concerns around Wikileaks DNS for easyDNS Members
