They better keep it, how else are they going to record who supports the leak? Lol.

Next Week's Headline: Facebook nixes Wikileaks!

I would almost bet money that Facebook will be next to cave when Uncle Sam comes a calling and demanding, just a matter of time really.

I can't speak for anyone else but honestly, this is not at all surprising considering all the recent talk on how law enforcement & other intelligence agencies monitor social networking sites to help them with their work. The "Tin Foil Brigade" even believe they are Intelligence agency fronts!!!!!. I would not go that far. But they are definitely being used. In Australia we have recently had problems with crimes being committed through these sites & also police using them to a "Sort of" background check on people. They also use it to try to piece together a persons movements etc etc

Be warned they are watching those who use these sites!
