WikiLeaks goes paywall, with predictable results
http://j.mp/QgdXEG (Wired)

a paywall, prompting blowback from elements of an underground ally,

conclude that it "cannot support anymore what WikiLeaks has become."

WikiLeaks might have an easier time attracting funding if their
fearless leader hadn't jumped bail leaving his supporters holding a
very expensive bag.
