@yorkhannah you can tweet by text though 😉 in reply to yorkhannah #
Just finished our #iamcr paper on WikiLeaks in Crisis Comm section. Now sweltering outside – at least it will be winter in Durban 2012 😉 #
@Loumat33 LOL! Ouch, yes, definitely in Istanbul. Toxic politics of geolocation! in reply to Loumat33 #

Video contribution from @gregmitch kicking off #iamcr #WikiLeaks special session, talking gatekeepers and mainstream media partnerships. #
@Kim_Bruning will try to tweet anything new 😉 in reply to Kim_Bruning #
Next up is @lisallynch – her article in Journalism Practise was copy edited by Julian Assange apparently #iamcr #Wikileaks #
Shift in #Wikileaks self-definition discussed by @lisallynch – two binaries: journalist or source, journalist or political actor #iamcr #
Ambitious diagram from @lisallynch to describe competing definitions of #Wikileaks #IAMCR http://t.co/WdtMmHv #
Now Bart Cammaerts from LSE on #Wikileaks as Information and communication resistance #IAMCR #
@pmmcc no probs 🙂 in reply to pmmcc #
Cammaerts says #Wikileaks has become gatekeepers as opposed to gate openers they aspired to be, talks of activist technology #IAMCR #
Cammaerts: comms resistance not structural, websites attacked only down for short periods, disruptions = spectacle #wikileaks #iamcr #
Now @biellacoleman on the politics of hacking in the age of information, looking at #anonymous #wikileaks #iamcr #

Jacobsson: Tradition of freedom of speech in Sweden dates back to 1776 #wikileaks #iamcr #
Jacobsson: Legal system criminalises several speech acts, but very bureaucratic system makes it difficult to prosecute #wikileaks #iamcr #
Jacobsson: unique legal component: only one person can be held legally responsible for any publication, protects sources #iamcr #wikileaks #
Jacobsson: Biggest enemy to #WikiLeaks sources is #WikiLeaks themselves, not Swedish law #iamcr #
Now Stefania Milan on #WikiLeaks from the hacktivist perspective #iamcr #
@Kim_Bruning it does not distinguish between roles of publisher and sources as Swedish constitution, extreme transparency issue, I think in reply to Kim_Bruning #
@Kim_Bruning but this was him speaking hypothetically in reply to Kim_Bruning #
Now Paschal Preston on #WikiLeaks and the practice of journalism #iamcr #
Preston: Trad model of journalism in crisis, amplified by current financial crisis and financing of journalism #wikileaks #iamcr #
Preston: challenges of #wikileaks and #wappingleaks for journalism, must look beyond technological, highlights hidden rules #iamcr #
