What is Wikileaks?

[Dr. Veerbala Sharma]

Wikileaks is a site designed to receive and to broadcast sensitive information. The goal of Wikileaks is to provide a safe haven for journalists, private (and public) citizens, and anyone who might need to be protected from the information they upload to Wikileaks. If you have sensitive information that you feel needs to have a broader audience, you can upload it to Wikileaks via the Submit documents page. According to the Wikileaks FAQ page, information submitted to Wikileaks is protected by a network of software, anonymous postal drops, and (worst case scenario) lawyers. Basically, Wikileaks operates on a policy of secrecy and strives to keep all its submitters safe from any possible reprisals. Because of the sensitive nature of most of the information available on Wikileaks, authenticity is not just assumed. The Wikileaks community carefully vets all submissions, making absolutely sure that the innocent are protected and that the information is both secure and authentic. Wikileaks aims at being a safe place for airing documentation of corporate or governmental misdeeds. It is a safe haven for anyone, anywhere in the world, to submit sensitive information that can then be read by the public, with the ultimate aims being transparency and justice through public communication.

WikiLeaks, the whistleblower website at the centre of a storm over leaking 250,000 US diplomatic despatches, is a not-for-profit media organisation launched in 2007 with the professed goal of bringing "important news and information to the public".The idea was relatively simple: given the viral nature of the Internet - and the ease of duplicating digital documents - once secret information was published, it could never become secret again.


WikiLeaks, which claims to provide "an innovative, secure and anonymous way for sources to leak information to our journalists" through its electronic drop box, has won a number of awards, including the 2008 Economist magazine's New Media Award.

Wikileaks first came online in 2007, promising any individual a forum to anonymously publish previously classified, hidden or sensitive documents and make them publicly available. The idea was relatively simple: given the viral nature of the Internet - and the ease of duplicating digital documents - once secret information was published, it could never become secret again.
