In Assange's defense, he did ask the US State Dept for advice on redacting the cables. State refused. Wikileaks haven't been great about document redaction in the past, but they have been doing a much better job lately. Some of the documents in their "war logs" dump were more heavily redacted than some of the versions that the DOD released due to FOIA requests.

A risky sort of banal? Like a "pumpkin spice frappuccino" risky banal or more an "Ikea Kivik loveseat in red" sort of risky banal?
