![DD13 A1.jpg](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/deepdives/jkruhGIN-DD1320A1.jpg) ## Deep Dives Research Challenge - Wikileaks Archive One week remains for entries into Deep Dives 13, [original post here](https://steempeak.com/deepdives/@deepdives/deep-dives-13-or-the-wikileaks-archive). Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is being held in Belmarsh High Security Prison aka 'Britain's Guantanamo Bay'. Assange was forcibly removed from the Ecuadorian embassy and arrested by UK police on April 11th, 2019. This is the backdrop for Deep Dives #13 and it's more important than ever before to dig deep into the material Wikileaks has made public. Deep Dives has already hosted six research challenges into the Wikileaks archive. Here are some contributions made by our community worthy of your attention from Deep Dives 11 - The Wikileaks Archive. #### [Wikileaks Shows How Teams of Unscrupulous Figures Control Popular Politicians from the Shadows](https://steempeak.com/deepdives/@gregorypatrick/wikileaks-shows-how-teams-of-unscrupulous-figures-control-popular-politicians-from-the-shadows) #### by @gregorypatrick #### [Coups and Regime Change Through Unconventional Warfare](https://steempeak.com/deepdives/@krnel/coups-and-regime-change-through-unconventional-warfare) #### by @krnel #### [The Penney Report and How Britain Got the Bomb](https://steempeak.com/deepdives/@palikari123/deep-dives-11-wikileaks-archive-the-penney-report-and-how-britain-got-the-bomb) #### by @palikari123 It's time to get back to digging in the vaults and back to building an archive of research on the blockchain. We're currently accepting submissions for DD13 from our dedicated researchers but also from first time contributors as well. # What Will You Unearth? *** ### Recent & Related Posts #### [Strange Love and the CBRN Industry Market Forecast 2015-2025](https://steempeak.com/deepdives/@v4vapid/strange-love-and-the-cbrn-defense-industry-market-forecast-2015-2025-or-dd13-the-wikileaks-archive) ![Strange1.gif](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/deepdives/nniVf6Fb-Strange1.gif) #### [Deep Dives Index](https://steempeak.com/deepdives/@deepdives/deep-dives-index-1-or-the-best-of-deep-dives-1-10) *** # The Wikileaks Archive ![Wikileaks logo 2 BIG.jpg](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/deepdives/t1QLZicg-Wikileaks20logo20220BIG.jpg) ## “WikiLeaks is a giant library of the world’s most persecuted documents. We give asylum to these documents, we analyze them, we promote them and we obtain more.” #### - Julian Assange [Der Spiegel](http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/spiegel-interview-with-wikileaks-head-julian-assange-a-1044399.html) * The Wikileaks archive contains well over 10 million documents * Wikileaks Docs have been cited in over 28,000 academic papers and US court filings ### https://www.wikileaks.org/ ### https://wikileaks.cloud/ ## The Wikileaks Index Back in late 2016, Wikileaks revealed the existence of a little-known index that combines onsite and offsite resources relating to Wikileaks material. This invaluable tool helps make the mammoth amount of documents available on the Wikileaks website more accessible and systematic. ### https://file.wikileaks.org/file/ ![Index of file .png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXRJj5NmQdU9S6xdxuyS2vYfkCbk6eUp1hzDaXpu1zp1M/Index%20of%20%20file%20.png) ![WL1 gif.gif](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXmgyHA6iv4XX1HTS5gjMUwcbz6ViVFcvEVbhGoNQtjfS/WL1%20gif.gif) ## Always Exercise Caution When engaging in research of government websites, intelligence agencies and whistleblower sites, such as Wikileaks, we strongly urge you to take all necessary precautions. #### We recommend that you take the time to properly explore available privacy tools and VPNs.
