    It was possible, via myriad methods, to release the same information in a widely distributed, completely anonymous manner

    On the other hand, most people were unaware of this. What wikileaks has really done is shown that you can leak something to the internet without necessarily destroying your life. Wikileaks has done more by being on TV constantly than by the service they offer imo.

    My opinion as to whether this is a good thing or not is still un-decided.
