Document sharing website Wikileaks is hated by governments and corporations worldwide for hosting all manner of documentation on issues that would otherwise remain in shadow. Recently, the website has been publishing the blacklists being used in countries like Germany and Australia, where government efforts to censor the Internet have been heating up.

The leaked lists have shown governments going beyond their purported mandate of cleaning up the most nefarious of Internet content (like child porn). Interestingly, Wikileaks yesterday reported that German police raided the home of the owner of the "wikileaks.de" domain, the German name for wikileaks.org:According to Wikileaks, German officials are engaged in a broader campaign against those discussing the lists:Wikileaks had previously published the blacklists for Thailand, Denmark and Norway, but only just published the Australian blacklist last week. While the list does include a lot of nasty child-related fare, it also includes regular pornography, some anti-abortion websites, a few anti-government blogs, as well as euthanasia and poker websites.
