"As we've gotten more successful, there's a gap between the speed of our publishing pipeline and the speed of our receiving submissions pipeline. Our pipeline of leaks has been increasing exponentially as our profile rises, and our ability to publish is increasing linearly"

This quote by Julian Assange is referring to the success of his company, WikiLeaks. Assange is saying that as they have become more effective, the rate at which they receive submissions has increased exponentially, while their capability to publish these submissions has actually only increased linearly. This has actually created a space in between the two pipelines, which Assange is most likely attempting to address. Assange is most likely attempting to emphasize the need for his organization to increase their publishing abilities in order to stay up to date with the influx of submissions they are receiving. This quote highlights the significance of WikiLeaks in supplying a platform for whistleblowers to share their info, and the need for the company to continue to grow in order to stay up to date with the demand.
