Wikileaks is developing an uncensorable Wikipedia for untraceable mass document leaking and analysis. Wikileaks' primary interest is in exposing oppressive regimes in Asia, the former Soviet bloc, Sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East.
Wikileaks looks like Wikipedia. Anybody can post comments to it. Whistleblowers can post documents anonymously and untraceably. Users can publicly discuss documents and analyze their credibility and veracity.
Those who provide leaked information may face severe risks, whether of political repercussions, legal sanctions or physical violence. Accordingly, sophisticated cryptographic and postal techniques are used to minimize the risks that anonymous sources face.
