I disclosed that I had been involved in discussions "regarding the formation of a new organization designed to support independent journalists and groups such as WikiLeaks under attack by the US and other governments."...

Government pressure and the eager compliance of large financial corporations has - by design - made it extremely difficult for anyone to donate to WikiLeaks, while many people are simply afraid to directly support the group .
