At times it feels that they should be called american-govmnt-leaks.org. Where are all the juicy leaks from Russian, Chinease, French, Mexican, Brazilian, Egyptian, or other nation states. Where are the leaks from mafia, drug cartels, or other criminal organizations. Records from financial institutions, law firms, drug companies. Records from catholic church and other religious organizations. There is so much corruption in the world, that it seems incredible that Wikileaks so much focuses on the US. Maybe leak some information on people that stole $18B from republic of Moldova. Or how tobacco, big oil, pharma or others are using their profits to gain even more profits. Where is all that?

And really, dnc-hacks.org. These aren't leaks from inside the organization and its whistleblowers. Wikileaks has been posting political voyeurism at the behest of a hacking organization. It's about as reputable as The Fappening celebrity nude photos being posted to 4chan "for transparency".

There have been many leaks about foreign countries. The US is a very dominant country and so of course there will be more leaked info.

I remember the WikiLeaks of Turkish emails that built and led up to the near successful coup of the Erdogan regime. In any case, I definitely welcome leaks from other countries. But I don't want those exclusively. As an American it's been repeatedly proven throughout my adult life that the US media does not perform due diligence in its role as the "fourth estate". The most important leaks for me are the ones providing transparency into my government. If there were leak sites for every government I would check the American leaks by far the most often.

They did release stuff from other countries. I hope they release more. I'd imagine counter-balancing a billion dollar new conglomerate coverage of CNN, NBC, CBS and others wasn't that bad with just some emails. So wish they'd do more Eastern Europe (I am from there originally). If they had Trump material, I wish they'd release that as well. I think I might donate to them, maybe they are understaffed and need more resources. So far I did find information there rather useful and helpful. Surprisingly more so than what I found form the traditional mass media.
