I for one...
would like to keep it that way, lean and low key. I am perfectly happy using it and find it suits my every need, and I like that it doesnt have many users as it means for a large part, the malware authors are not targeting it...

I dont believe that was the intended message of the previous anon poster... I believe they meant that the Anonymous vs. CoS battle was done online, in person and politically... whereas this thing with wikileaks seems to analog to a "Cyber vigilante" where they are not neccessarrily covering all of their bases, and in essence are creating a bad name for themselves...
I mean, obviously as a company who is trying (and succeeding) at making a proffit, it doesnt really make business sense to be promoting someone who is in a competative industry... I mean, a search engine that doesn't want to advertise an alternative search engine... is it really that surprising?
Ok, granted... a search engine down-ranking another map service for example would be a bit bad, but a search engine, with it's own mapping service, down-ranking a competitor with their own mapping service... I think its just business smart...
" murdering US citizens abroad " - surely this is illegal wherever "abroad" is, and would be tried as such.
" blowing up a US embassy " - As above ^^
I find your conclusions based on this weak defence flawed... if I went to the USA (where I am not from), and killed my missus, and was found out, I surely would be sentenced there, no? Likewise if I went to Germany, or the UK, or god forbid, France...
The embassy thing is a bit more complicated, but not much...
