WikiLeaks Springs a Leak: Full Database of Diplomatic Cables Appears Online

Unlike the cables that WikiLeaks has been publishing piecemeal since last fall, these cables are raw and unredacted, and contain the names of informants and suspected intelligence agents that were blacked out of the official releases. Der Freitag said the documents include the names of suspected agents in Israel, Jordan, Iran and Afghanistan, and noted that interested parties – such as the Iranian government or intelligence agencies – could have already discovered and decrypted the file to uncover the names of informants.
