The answers from the twitter guy are here, I'd say this has been solidly debunked:<p><a href="http://studentactivism.net/2010/12/05/wikileaks-twitter-3/#comment-11633" rel="nofollow">http://studentactivism.net/2010/12/05/wikileaks-twitter-3/#c...</a><p>Scan for 'Josh Elman' (twitter) and 'Angus Johnston' the guy that originally raised the issue.

It looks very much like something is "smacking it down".<p><a href="http://studentactivism.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/sundays-180.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://studentactivism.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/sundays-1...</a><p>Either an algorithm or human trigger.<p>Are we reaching the point where the only "honest" sites are offshore and away from political influence?

Idle speculation, all but disproved the day before this superficial piece was even written. Flagged.
