WikiLeaks To Make Statement On 'The Future Of The Internet'

WikiLeaks has teased its 2 million Twitter followers ahead of what it calls a statement on the 'future of the internet'.

The information network said that it would make the statement on Tuesday afternoon, though nothing had been published as of press time.

The organisation, whose Twitter icon is an hour glass slowly leaking sand, one grain at a time, posted messages at hourly intervals teasing the announcement.

The content of the statement is unknown, but on Twitter users were anxious - perhaps impatient - to find out what it is:

@wikileaks Bored of waiting. Fuck off.
