Wikileaks

WikiLeaks is an international non-profit organization that publishes submissions of private, secret, and classified media from anonymous news sources, news leaks, and whistleblowers.

Founding of wikileaks.org Domain name « wikileaks.org » was registered on 4 October The website published its first document in December 2006.

Official founders of Wikileaks: Chinese dissidents, journalists, mathematicians start-up company technologists, from the US, Taiwan, Europe, Australia and South Africa. -wikileaks.org

Who is Julian Assange ? According to Wired magazine, Assange described himself in a private conversation as "the heart and soul of this organisation, its founder, philosopher, spokesperson, original coder, organiser, financier, and all the rest". Assange is an Australian publisher, journalist, software developer and Internet activist. He has represented Wikileaks in public since January 2007.

Goals of WikiLeaks WikiLeaks primary interest is in exposing oppressive regimes in Asia, the former Soviet bloc, Sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East, but we also expect to be of assistance to people of all regions who wish to reveal unethical behaviour in their governments and corporations.

The organisation's stated goal is to ensure that whistleblowers and journalists are not jailed for ing sensitive or classified documents, as happened to Chinese journalist Shi Tao, who was sentenced to 10 years in 2005 after publicising an from Chinese officials about the anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre.

Admistration The WikiLeaks team consists of five people working full-time and about 800 people who worked occasionally, none of whom were compensated. The expenses per year are about 200,000, mainly for servers and bureaucracy, but would reach 600,000 if work currently done by volunteers were paid for.

Financing WikiLeaks is a non-profit organisation, and it is dependent on public donations. Its main financing methods include conventional bank transfers and online payment systems. Wau Holland Foundation, one of the WikiLeaks' main funding channels, stated that they received more than 900,000 in public donations between October 2009 and December 2010, out of which 370,000 has been passed on to WikiLeaks.

Wikipedia and Wikileaks WikiLeaks and Wikipedia have no affiliation with each other ("wiki" is not a brand name). But Wikimedia Foundation, did however purchase several WikiLeaks-related domain names (including wikileaks.com and wikileaks.net) as a "protective brand measure" in 2007.

Whistleblowers insurance Rather than leaking directly to the press, and fearing exposure and retribution, whistleblowers can leak to WikiLeaks, which then leaks to the press for them.
