The name "WikiLeaks" is derived from two components: "Wiki," which refers to a collaborative website that allows users to add and edit content, and "Leaks," signifying the release of confidential information. The term reflects the organization's mission to provide a platform for whistleblowers and sources to share classified documents and information with the public. Founded in 2006, WikiLeaks aims to promote transparency and expose government and corporate misconduct.
