- "The posting of confidential bank records by anonymous sources significantly harms the privacy rights of all individuals."
This is misrepresentation.
Baer likes to spin the documents as 'bank records' and never likes to talk about the dates concerned. The documents are nearly all Microsoft Word files setting up trust arrangements used as anonymizing shell structures. In its court filings, Baer claims to have been aware of the documents release since 2003 and the Swiss media had the documents in 2005. The only relevence these documents have now is that they expose the bank's ultra-rich clients funneling money through Cayman Islands trusts nearly a decade ago under a variety of suspicious circumstances.
Wikileaks took a skeptical position on the documents until attacked by the bank. Baer, in attempting to shoot the messenger has only succeeded, spectacularly, in shooting itself.
Wikileaks awaits Baer's apology.
