Wikileaks is a site for whistleblowers to anonymously report stuff. Recently the ACMA blacklist that is going to be used in the compulsory Australian internet filter our government is planning was leaked on the site. It listed about 1300 sites, including a few that really shouldn't have been on there (Wikipedia pages and a dentist's office site??). Wikileaks stated their position: that the information needs to be public knowledge because such systems are known to become corrupt over time.
The government responded by adding Wikileaks to the blacklist.
...Nice.
