WikiLeaks knocks Michael Moore’s ‘TrumpiLeaks’ for lack of security – Washington Examiner

A website started by liberal filmmaker Michael Moore that seeks leaks with damaging information about President Trump lacks adequate security to protect some sources says another website that attracts whistleblowers, WikiLeaks.

Moore launched his own version of WikiLeaks on Tuesday, called "TrumpiLeaks," in order to collect information from "patriotic Americans in government, law enforcement, or the private sector with knowledge of the crimes, lies, and general misconduct committed by Donald J. Trump and his associates." The website boasts "high-powered encryption technology" to protect submitted documents and also offers the option for whistleblowers to email information too.

WikiLeaks said the website, which admits "no form of digital communication is 100% secure," doesn't do enough to protect classified information, but is more reliable than several news outlets.

"Michael Moore's #Trumpileaks is not secure enough to protect sources with classified information but it is better than many newspapers," WikiLeaks tweeted.

The launch of TrumpiLeaks comes one day after the Justice Department charged a federal contractor with leaking classified National Security Agency information to a news outlet.

WikiLeaks is responsible for the publication of a number of leaks over the years, including last year's leak of stolen emails from the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton's campaign. The U.S. intelligence community believes WikiLeaks is tied to Russian operatives.
