11 membership lists about to go online
Wikileaks is in the process of making a cache of documents and files from eleven different neo-Nazi organisations readable, and readily available, online. The membership records and private messages are currently being formatted to make them easy for non-techies to read and will be released on the Wikileaks site shortly.
The organisation got massive publicity last year when it published (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/11/18/bnp_loses_list/) a BNP membership list handed over by a disgruntled ex-member.
The raw data is already available but needs formatting so: "your grandmother can read them and google can find them... Journalists won't write about it otherwise." The site is asking (https://secure.wikileaks.org/wiki/Draft:Nazis) for volunteers with enough database skills to be able to expand fields and dumping to text. The compressed data is about 54MB.
The internal documents include more than just membership lists. There are what seem to be private internal messages, forum posts and email addresses. Groups who have lost data, or had it stolen, include Aryan Nations, Blood and Honour, White Revolution, Volks Front and the Hammerskin Nation.
The data should be available online from the usual sources shortly.
