3. Isn't it already public info? They could literally log on and see who follows WL.
Charlie don't surf and the DOJ don't Twitter.

13. The registration info for users are public? I don't think so.

4. How stupid, what a waste.
Are they going to target every reader of the NYT, Gaurdian, LAT and hundreds of other news sites? Are they going to target anyone who followed links to wikileaks? Those who re-posted info?

How fucking stupid.

24. If it's available,
I'll look for it on CD from the library. Would be interesting listening on the way to and from work. 45 minutes each way, 5 days a week.
