One thing that Mr Young mentions in this interview is the threat
secret governance poses for any free and democratic society and how
there should be more debate on this with regards to the internet...

There was a /very/ good debate on this at the Churchill Club in San
Francisco two weeks ago, with many top tier Bay Area people in the
audience: http://www.churchillclub.org/eventDetail.jsp?EVT_ID=892
Watch it at: http://fora.tv/2011/01/19/WikiLeaks_Why_It_Matters_Why_It_Doesnt
Anyone interested in this topic will do good to watch this piece (1h
48m in total).  If you feel hesitant to watch all of it, start with
chapter 9 and 10. This piece contains plenty food for thought.

Cheers,
Martin
