Leak Early, Leak (More Than) Often: Outlining the Affective Politics of Data Leaks in Network Ecologies
Data leaks have become one of the most ubiquitous weapons in the arsenal of digital media dissent. However, often such processes of mediation exceed a rational understanding of the information revealed. Acting in the domain of the accident, the mediations of leaks operate in the dimension of the event: an immanent and particular set of relations that is provoked by the encounter and collision of various forces, virtually becoming their productive potential. This article advances the question of how data leaks―as a form of media dissent―operate beyond representation, touching upon the vital realm of affect. Intensively enabling a transformation in the state of the forces at play, affect generates possibilities within the emergent world that is constantly in creation. In this article, I argue that the politics of leaks in contemporary network ecologies works in such an affective register, possessing the capabilities to trigger and activate subjects differentially. Exploring the 2012 leak by Anonymous Italia, consisting of around 3,500 Italian police documents, mostly concerning the NoTav movement, I propose that the mediations of data leaks need to be studied and apprehended via their inductive capacities, as a question of affective politics, or alter-politics.

Formen von Informalität: "Policy-Leaks" vs. "Politics-Leaks"
Die mediale Darstellung von Leaks lässt leicht darauf schließen, dass Leaks ein zwar interessantes, da neues, aber zumindest einheitliches Phänomen im internationalen System darstellen. Christoph Bieber von der Universität Duisburg-Essen bricht mit dieser Vor- und Darstellung, indem er anhand bestimmter vergangener Veröffentlichungen unterschiedliche Arten des Leaking differenziert, und dabei sowohl "Policy-" wie auch "Politics-" Leaks identifiziert.

Classified intelligence and leaks
In: Introducing issues with opposing viewpoints
"Experts often disagree about how much and what kind of intelligence should be considered classified. In addition, there can be benefits to leaking intelligence, a practice that is done by insiders with some regularity.

Who decides when a leaker is a "whistleblower" or a "traitor"? Readers of this captivating volume will learn about the issue from a diverse array of viewpoints"--
