[Noisebridge-discuss] Should NB mirror WikiLeaks?

[Corey McGuire]

Noisebridge is no good to us dead.  I can't eat burrito's and discuss
hacking inside a cold corpse.

Personally, as someone too broke to donate to the space, I don't want to
vote for anything that causes NB financial trouble.  Utilising NB resources
for something that, ultimately, serves NB no end is theft from the services
that NB could otherwise provide.

It's not a matter of politics, it's a matter of efficiency.

Besides, Noisebridge is politically active and subversive in ways that are
free as in beer.
