"This morning Amazon informed my staff that it has ceased to host the WikiLeaks website," US Senator Joe Lieberman said in a statement.

Senator Lieberman said Amazon's decision to cut off WikiLeaks "is the right decision and should set the standard for other companies WikiLeaks is using to distribute its illegally seized material".

"I will be asking Amazon about the extent of its relationship with WikiLeaks and what it and other web service providers will do in the future to ensure that their services are not used to distribute stolen, classified information."

Holy f*ck!

"should set the standard for other companies WikiLeaks is using to distribute its illegally seized material"

No doubt it will also now "set the standard" for all hosts being used to distribute legit leaks of any kind.

The real agenda behind Wikileaks, ending free speech online, has just smacked us all in the face with terminal velocity.

I repeat; Holy F*ck!
