9/11 pager data on Wikileaks
A trace of half a million pages from five hours before the first attack on the WTC on 9/11 to 24 hours after it. It makes for pretty eerie reading.
Edit - the more I think about it, the uneasier I get about this. A lot of that data isn’t anonymised, and we’re not talking about Wikileak scenarios like exposing corrupt politicians via whistleblowers; these are everyday, scared people. This feels uncomfortably like a trawl for publicity from WIkileaks. I’m not sure I buy their “this is part of history, archived for the people” angle either; it feels a little forced, a little like they know they are in the wrong.
Hmmm.
