The administrators of the DDoSecrets website write that they have run out of money for funding. If they don’t raise $150,000 by January 31, 2024, they might be forced to suspend operations. This is written on the red banner that appears when you go to the site.
Info: Distributed Denial of Secrets (DDoSecrets) is a journalist 501©(3) non-profit publishing and archiving leaks, and devoted to the free transmission of data in the public interest.
In more detail (from Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_Denial_of_Secrets):
Distributed Denial of Secrets, abbreviated DDoSecrets, is a non-profit whistleblower site founded in 2018 for news leaks. The site is a frequent source for other news outlets and has worked on investigations including Cyprus Confidential with other media organizations. In December 2023, the organization said it had published over 100 million files from 59 countries.
Sometimes referred to as a successor to WikiLeaks, it came to international attention for its June 2020 publication of internal police documents, known as BlueLeaks. The group has also published data on Russian oligarchs, fascist groups, shell companies, tax havens and banking in the Cayman Islands, as well as data scraped from Parler in January 2021 and from the February 2021 Gab leak. The group is also known for publishing emails from military officials, City Hall in Chicago and the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Police Department.
The site’s leaks have resulted in or contributed to multiple government investigations, including the second impeachment of President Donald J. Trump. During the Russo-Ukrainian War, they were considered one of the best public repositories of all the Russian files leaked since the invasion began.
And to my point, the US had zero issues with where the Wikileaks data came from until it was aimed at them.
They were happy with Wikileaks when they were only leaking information on nation-states the US considered “enemies.”
Do people really forget that Wikileaks existed since 2006, and the first damning info they would release on the US was the Collateral Murder video that was released in April 2010? (Which wasn’t just the DNC, Collateral Murder was squarely aimed at the Bush Administration and the history of their abuse and torture in the middle east, but I guess it’s just convenient to forget that the first US administration they exposed was Republican.)
It wasn’t until 2015/2016 that the US began accusing them of being controlled by Russians.
Why would they only release the DNC emails?
Edit: I’m not even saying that they had the RNC emails, why would they only go after the DNC?

I’m not here to re-litigate 2016, dumbshit. If you hate Wikileaks, fine. That’s not the point I’m fucking making here, dipshit.
But keep ignoring that because you want to argue about this.
So, you don’t have an answer to that question, lol.
Because I’m not defending Wikileaks, chucklefuck! I’m pointing out that the US government was happy when they were leaking data on other people, and then unhappy when it was them in the crosshairs.
I’m not here to debate the source of the DNC emails nor a literal conspiracy theory with no evidence that the RNC had been hacked, Wikileaks had the data, and that they refused to release it. You sound as bad as the fucking idiots who claim Seth Rich was the Wikileaks leaker. God damn, it’s been years and you’re still trotting this out like there’s a treasure trove of evidence they had those emails. There isn’t.
Wow, you’re spirited this morning. You do realize that the source that I first posted was Time and there are a shit ton of respected others if you put wikileaks and russia in your search engine, right? You’re vaguely saying that the “media” only reports what the government wants it to say while saying that I am listening to conspiracies, I think you need some mirror therapy on this.
None of your links have evidence that:
That’s the stipulation you made in the first comment and have demanded I make answers for. When asked for you to present evidence of your claim of an RNC hack and Wikileaks choosing to not release, you’ve changed the subject. Some might call this “forum sliding.”
Yeah that’s not a purposefully gross misinterpretation of what I am saying at all.
It doesn’t matter if they HAD the RNC emails or not, why would they only go after the DNC?
You can’t be this obtuse, right?
They can’t produce info on the RNC they don’t have. So because they couldn’t release info on both parties, it’s unfair and illegal, is that what you’re saying? That it’s only valid for them to leak on the DNC if they can do the same to the RNC? Because that’s bonkers stupid and you need to live in the real world. We don’t hide information because we need it to be “equal for both sides.”
Literally, would you argue the same if they leaked the RNC emails but not the DNC emails???
Dude, get a grip. You’re lost in the fucking sauce.
