FOUNDLING

                                             July 24, 2011


The personal dispute between J and D             Julian Assange and
(or between J and nearly everyone else)          Daniel Domscheit-Berg
is entertaining, but not fundamentally
all that interesting.                                      INSIDE_WIKILEAKS

Myself, I'm more comfortable with messy
human judgements than D, and while
having a crazy founder hanging around
can be difficult (to say the
least... and I speak from experience),
someone really does have to make
judgment calls. And I think it's often
the case that the crazy-founder types
do a good job of doing this, despite             Have you ever
the fact that they're also annoying the          talked with anyone
hell out of everyone else inside the             who's actually
organization                                     worked with Steve
                                                 Jobs?

                                                 Little cold things happen
                                                 on their faces.

                                                 They're left shaking in
                                                 rage at the things they
                                                 can't talk about.

I think that D. would argue that it is
best if *no one* inside the conduit is
making such judgement calls...

                     And from that point of
                     view, it hardly matters
                     whether D or J is right
                     when accusing the other of
                     being a paranoid control
                     freak.   So why did D go
                     on about it so much?
