Wikileaks launches social network
Whistleblower organisation, Wikileaks has launched Friends of Wikileaks (FoWL), an encrypted social network for “like-minded individuals.”
“Friends of WikiLeaks is a network of people from across the globe who defend WikiLeaks, its people, its alleged sources and its mission,” the site’s homepage reads.
“We publicly and privately promote WikiLeaks and individuals and organisations aligned with the mission of WikiLeaks. This site will help you to join with people like you in your area and across the world,” it continues.
“You will make new friends and new allies, care for treasured values and fight in common cause.”
Rather than finding users to friend on FoWL, the site will assign users 12 friends each, six of which will be from a similar geographic area, and six from other parts of the world who speak the same language.
If one of the users in the group becomes inactive, they are booted and the service automatically assigns a new member of the group.
