I think we need the people them self to realize this instead of governments.
If governments can do things like this: http://www.boingboing.net/2010/12/01/wikileaks-and-the-el.html
Then I think we first need to redefine our (western!) governments. We can point the finger at China, Russia, North-Korea, Iran and a lot of other countries, but if we, who claim to live in a free place, cannot prevent ourself from doing other people harm, how are we going to prevent these "small" mishaps by man?
Of course these small mishaps are bad enough already, but I think there are much more worryingly things happening currently, by governments and perhaps large corporations.
