EveryDNS.net Plus Plug On Wikileaks.Org: Wikileaks DNS Now Hosted In Switzerland, Wikileaks Uses Twitter To Direct Users To New Web Address

The DNS provider, EveryDNS.net, has shut down service to wikileaks.org because of what it says are excessive cyber attacks. EveryDNS.net provides free or very low cost DNS services and say it must be fair to other users of EveryDNS.

it is following established policies so as not to put any one EveryDNS.net user’s interests ahead of any others. Lastly, regardless of what people say about the actions of EveryDNS.net, we know this much is true - we believe in our New Hampshire state motto, Live Free or Die.

Several hours later, WikiLeaks announced on Twitter that it was setting up shop in Switzerland at Wikileaks.ch, a domain name that is currently held by the president of the Pirate Party of Switzerland.

DNS is a key part of the Web, which translates Internet Protocol (IP) addresses - strings of numbers - into an actual domain name, like Wikileaks.org.

" Behind the ostensible government sits enthorned an invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people.To destroy this invisible government ,to befoul this unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the first task of statemanship"-President Theodore Roosevelt,quoted in Julain assange's Manifesto of Wikileaks.

The governemnts at present know about invisible governments and instead of 'befouling the unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics'have joined the unholy alliance to help, and seek help from, corrupt business.Now business is politics,politics is business and both are corrupt.Bush,Cheney and Rumsfled are perfect blend of both.Invisible governments have destroyed statemen.

Each american hacker from the CIA will track down Wikileaks whereabouts. It's a fact. Everywhere they move the servers, that site will be hunted like ducks. That's what happens when you mess with global interests it's a big pain for Wikileaks owner, but now he has to face the consequences.
