The Assange Arrest and WikiLeaks' Survival

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange surrendered to authorities in Britain on Dec. 7, following an Interpol Red Notice based on a Swedish arrest warrant. WikiLeaks is a relatively young organization with one leader and has not institutionalized a set of practices and protocols that guarantee its survival even if the personnel changes. Assange's arrest will test the organization's ability to maintain itself, but the use of the Internet to leak documents will continue.
