Well, shit. The one nonprofit I trusted. :(

Where should my annual $3 charity budget go, now?!

But also, didn't Greenwald go for a too long of a walk into conspiracyland?

but more seriously regardless, wikipedia makes a ton of money from public grants and for their role helping the NSA and other federal agencies. I don't understand why they keep asking random people for money when they really, really don't need it. My theory is that because Jimmy Wales is a weird Ayn Rand libertarian, he wants to make it seem as if his model of an "encyclopedia the common man can edit" works.
