Anonymous != Wikileaks
Though my girlfriend is out of the country and I was really looking forward to talking to her this afternoon, so I am also quite angry at the down-ness of Skype.
While I'll try to stay away from the subject, I agree with you. Wikileaks just PUBLISHES the info, the ones who DDoS the websites are those anon kids and people who want to make things "Right" according to them. Besides (From Argentina here) every damn goverment in the world has secrets and/or corruption, so as long as it doesn't endanger inocent people, I'm fine with it (No one died because of Wikileaks... Atleast a few weeks ago :P)

Please, please, please mods don't ban me for this.... Buuuut.
The FOLLOWERS of Al'qaeda are terrorists, but they are also Muslim, so MUSLIMS are terrorist. Does that make any sense? Hell no, and this sure as hell doesn't.
Again, mods please don't ban, no offense against any muslim, but I had to make a comparison which is ALSO a common misconception for some people (Aka dumbasses, the ones that watch the crappy reality shows :P)
w8 WHAAAAAAT?!!! i don't get what's happened to skype, has it been shutdown? i though the loginservers had crashed :S
Under normal circumstances, there are a large number of supernodes available. Unfortunately, today, many of them were taken offline by a problem affecting some versions of Skype. As Skype relies on being able to maintain contact with supernodes, it may appear offline for some of you.

OMG WIKILEAK ATTACKS :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I realised skype was offline but didnt knwo it was this.
only matter of time till support to something dwindles when the attackers start to disrupting something that people need for everyday life
As if /b/ is organized. /new/ if ANYTHING. It doesn't even need to be them. It's anonymous. That isn't a title granted to people who specifically go to 4chan, it's a titled granted to EVERYONE who says or does something without a name. In this case, it would be the individuals who took it upon themselves to attack these websites.
Stephen Colbert was right!!
Oh wow.... All of the attacks that were perpetrated has no affiliation with WikiLeaks, it was Anonymous using the LOIC (Low Orbit Ion Cannon). Wikileaks has not, and will not, attack people or websites.
