2. Rebooting the News 75

   As Dave said Dec. 3rd, “We’re having a Rebooting The News moment here with WikiLeaks.” Indeed. Now we now how the open Net comes crashing down.

   • First came the denial of service attacks. (Dave: “How do we know that?”)
   • Next, Amazon Web Services kicked Wikileaks off its cloud servers.
   • Then it was EveryDNS.net., which stopped serving the domain wikileaks.org
   • Then Tableau Software removed data visualizations Wikileaks had running there.
   • Then PayPal started choking off the air supply: donations.
   • The U.S. Library of Congress even got into the act, shutting down access to Wikileaks at its terminals.
