Wikileaks Booted From Amazon 528
dakameleon writes "Wikileaks has been booted from its Amazon hosting, and has now shifted to being hosted in Europe. Senator Lieberman, chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, said in a statement, 'This morning Amazon informed my staff that it has ceased to host the WikiLeaks website,' which raises the question whether this was requested by the government. 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.'"

You say that like being a whore is a bad thing.
It isn't. It's certainly a job that's more reputable than many others, such as telemarketer or Visual Basic developer.
But it's also a job many wouldn't like to exercise...
