If WikiLeaks were a for-profit company, determining its real value would be a nearly impossible task.
Quote by -Evgeny Morozov
As leakers take great risks in releasing information, assuring them that they are not sacrificing themselves in vain and that their leaks would have public consequences would most likely encourage more people to leak.
Quote by -Evgeny Morozov
Most other documents leaked to WikiLeaks do not carry the same explosive potential as candid cables written by American diplomats.

Cybercriminals are usually driven by profit, while cyberterrorists are driven by ideology.
Quote by -Evgeny Morozov

Quote by -Evgeny Morozov
Would you like all of your Facebook friends to sift through your trash? A group of designers from Britain and Germany think that you might. Meet BinCam: a 'smart' trash bin that aims to revolutionize the recycling process.
Quote by -Evgeny Morozov
Truly smart technologies will remind us that we are not mere automatons who assist big data in asking and answering questions.
Quote by -Evgeny Morozov
