If it's true, get ready for more turmoil in the financial sector. You know BofA will use the "everyone else does this" defense, which will prompt a Congressional inquiry with the heads of the banking families. Can't imagine the stock market will respond well to this.
[A]n eagle-eyed reader has sent me a link to a quote from a Computer World interview with Assange from October of 2009, which, if true, may contain a clue to that bank’s identity:
“At the moment, for example, we are sitting on five gigabytes from Bank of America, one of the executive’s hard drives,” he said. “Now how do we present that? It’s a difficult problem. We could just dump it all into one giant Zip file, but we know for a fact that has limited impact. To have impact, it needs to be easy for people to dive in and search it and get something out of it.”
The Feds may be sitting around wringing their hands, trying to figure out what to do. Now that Big Bank is involved, Woody's suggestion may bear fruit.
