    TFA: "The group stresses that the as-yet-unnamed platform should not be seen as a competitor to WikiLeaks but as a different approach, the newspaper wrote."

    Title on Slashdot: "Wikileaks competitor in the works".

    The only part in TFA that mentions the word "competitor" is the sentence stating what this new site won't be.

    Cryptome has been up and running since -96 and if anything having Wikileaks show up in -06 has only made them more relevant. This should be a good development, the more targets the harder they will be to take down.
