the necessity of and danger in leaking state secrets. With Wendy
Ballinger, Treasurer and former Executive Director of Ford Hall Forum,
Snorrason and Domscheit-Berg will discuss why their newest venture, OpenLeaks,
is superior to Julian Assange’s WikiLeaks model and other various “Leaks”
sites being launched around the world. The two will reveal how and why
they became involved with WikiLeaks, particularly their beliefs on the
public’s right to know versus global security.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

cofounded and launched state secret-sharing website OpenLeaks with Herbert
Snorrason in 2011. Domscheit-Berg, a skilled hacker, speaks regularly
about information transfers and remains committed to freedom of information and
transparency on the internet. Under the pseudonym “Daniel Schmitt,”
he was the effective second-in-command at WikiLeaks, serving as the
organization's spokesman and most public face after Julian Assange.
Domscheit-Berg was a computer scientist who worked primarily in IT
security for several multinational companies prior to devoting himself
full-time to WikiLeaks.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Snorrason is an Icelandic graduate student, historian, journalist, and activist

board member of the Icelandic Digital Freedom Society, he invited WikiLeaks

accepted his invitation. Following management disagreements with
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, Snorrason and Domscheit-Berg established
OpenLeaks.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Hall Forum is the nation's oldest free public lecture series. The Forum
promotes freedom of speech and fosters an informed and effective citizenry
through public presentation of lectures, debates, and discussions. Its
events illuminate the key issues facing our society, by bringing to its podium
knowledgeable and thought-provoking speakers from a broad range of
perspectives. These individuals speak in person, for free, and in
settings that encourage frank and open debate.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Forum began in 1908 as a series of Sunday evening public meetings held at the
Ford Hall, which once stood on Beacon Hill in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place

longer exists, the public conversations have continued throughout the <st1:City

generous support of foundations, corporations, academic institutions, and
