In the middle of all this, Wikileaks Central put my little "I read Wikileaks" declaration up
last night and this morning, the petition site shut it down. It's supposed to stay up for 4 months if it's still getting signatures. The petition was posted in December.

I emailed tech support but :shrug:

1. Excellent!
There is another petition that, last time I looked had over 700,000 signatures. Their goal is one million, then they intend to begin placing ads in newspapers, to counter the anti-wikileaks propaganda.

Congratulations on getting it on wikileaks central. I hope it gets circulated by people who have access to other large sites.

3. It can't get signatures because the petition site has shut it down.

Maybe they will get back to me and explain why they did that. :shrug:

5. I wonder if they've re-opened it incompletely
It still says "closed".

7. That is strange. More censorship maybe?
Should we add them to the list who cooperate with government censorship?

Maybe send them this thread and let them know others would like to know why they shut it down?

8. Still no word from the petition site.
I'll wait until Monday to escalate the inquiry.

11. The "closed" sign has been removed and without comment.
That was strange. :)

12. Interesting. Maybe a lower level person took it upon themselves
to be 'patriotic'? But, it's good they've reversed the decision. Too bad they didn't respond.
