Perhaps. But I'm certainly not going to apologize for finding wikileaks lack of concern/sloppiness on this matter atrocious. They were in no rush to release these documents. There really isn't an excuse for them to have better sifted through their documents and censored/cut documents from the release if they gave something specific like the name/residence of an informant.
