Regarding WikiLeaks and students, officials have denied that students were warned against viewing website and linking to the articles.
A spokesman did warn students not to download documents to personal computers because it could compromise future careers in government, due to security concerns.
It is concerning that students would be instructed to not post links to the site, because although the government may consider documents to be classified, they are public at the present time. If students are unable to do what they want with the information, freedom of speech is compromised.
