I agree completely. I look forward to more leaks that discredit and diminish the DHS and law enforcement. But that doesn't mean that I trust Wikileaks to adequately balance the motivations and lensing of its sources with its mission of absolute transparency.

I'm not sure that I trust Wikileaks on that either, but I don't trust the powers that be to adequately balance such motivations either, and ultimately I'd rather Wikileaks released information in dubious faith than not at all.

At least with information in the open, people can attempt to grok the full picture for themselves.

I agree completely. The more information, the better.

You have to trust that all the information actually IS in the open though.

Wikileaks can't guarantee that.
