I think that reality exists and that it's knowable.

I worry about censorship in many parts of the world.

I don't worry. It's just not in my nature, really.

What can we put into the hands of people under oppressive regimes to help them? For me, a big part of it is information, knowledge - the ability to defeat propaganda by understanding it.

If it isn't on Google, it doesn't exist.

I have no regular schedule. I get up whenever I can.

I don't come down on any simple place as a deletionist or a completionist.

While I'm optimistic about the direction the world is headed, generally, I think there is a need for constant vigilance and pressure on repressive governments.

It's kind of surprising that you could just open up a site and let people work.

A huge amount of what goes on in the Middle East has to do with people being fed really bad information.

I am really accessible.

The Supreme Court has held that code is speech. And it doesn't matter that it's done on a computer or done face to face or done in a newspaper, reporting the facts of the world is protected speech.

I have always liked the idea of going to print because a big part of what we are about is to disseminate knowledge throughout the world and not just to people who have broadband.

I am really accessible.

Free speech includes the right to not speak.

If I had some information, the last thing I would ever do with it is send it to Wikileaks.

I can't do anything quietly anymore.

My view is that good community management is like having good municipal government: You should be able to have dissenting opinions and so on, freedom of speech, but your grandmother should also be able to walk down the street at night without having to worry about getting mugged.

The goal is to give people a free encyclopedia to every person in the world, in their own language. Not just in a 'free beer' kind of way, but also in the free speech kind of way.

I don't come down on any simple place as a deletionist or a completionist.
