Wikileaks Volunteer Hires Lawyers in Twitter Fight

Apparently the Wikileaks people support the release of all information...unless it's their own. You have to laugh at the hypocrisy here, the people that are all about leaking everyone's info have lawyered up to stop their info from being leaked to the feds. big grin

On Friday, Twitter notified Jónsdóttir and a handful of other subscribers that the U.S. Justice Department had obtained a court order for their "subscriber account information." The order covers possible accounts linked to Wikileaks including those of Bradley Manning, the U.S. Army private accused of leaking classified documents; Seattle-based Wikileaks volunteer Jacob Appelbaum; Dutch hacker and XS4ALL Internet provider co-founder Rop Gonggrijp; and Wikileaks editor Julian Assange.
