These things are done in our names, and the name of protection of human rights. We voted fo these people and governments. Yet we are not allowed to donate to a cause We believe is protecting the rights of all people to access information.

Note that Amazon and other’s excuse that “it is not credible that the extraordinary volume of 250,000 classified documents that Wikileaks is publishing could have been carefully redacted” is factually challenged. Wikileaks has only released about 8 or 9 hundred of the 250,000 cables, and only those which have already been published or disclosed by newspapers around the world, and that they are carefully redacted.

Sutch ugly way to limit customers ability to do the job is very disapointing act against customers without any warning.
You are UNTRUSTED company in my eyses that limits their customers freedom for donations and payments.

Thanks for Wikileaks that showed the whole world what is real democrasy USA having today- violant acts against humanity.

There is some ways to take action just now:
- Delete your Paypal, your Visa your Mastercard Accounts.. and tell them why.
- Donate money on older ways(postal for example)

…any more? Maybe someone else can continue this list

I THINK IT’S TIME WE ALL TAKE ACTION. WE WILL NOT BE SHUT DOWN; WE WILL NOT BE MADE SILLENT. WE DESERVE FREEDOM OF SPEACH AND WE DESERVE TO KNOW THE TRUTH. IN THE END, ALL THIS WORLD IS MADE ON OUR BACKS SO WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW WHAT’S IN IT…EVERYTHING THAT IS IN IT. LET’S STOP TAKING AND CHATTING AND MAKE THIS HAPPEN. WIKILEAKS IS YOU AND ME…

Maybe these companies are scared. Isn’t it interesting that all of a sudden global corporates have a concience. They are probably hiding just as many secrets as the US .mil & .gov
