Today, Tuesday 7 March 2017, WikiLeaks begins its new series of leaks on the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency. Code-named Vault 7 by WikiLeaks, it is the largest ever publication of confidential documents on the agency. In 2014, FBI and CIA officials lobbied the White House to designate Wikileaks as an information broker to allow for more investigative tools against it and according to former officials potentially paving the way for its prosecution. On Tuesday, Wikileaks released a huge cache of documents it said were descriptions of CIA cyber tools used to break into smartphones, computers and internet-connected TVs. Schulte provided a trove of CIA documents to WikiLeaks, which published the data under the labels 'Vault 7' and 'Vault 8' in 2017. Today, 5th August 2021, WikiLeaks publishes The Intolerance Network over 17,000 documents from internationally active right wing campaigning organisations HazteOir and CitizenGO. The American public should be deeply troubled by any Wikileaks disclosure designed to damage the Intelligence Community’s ability to protect America against terrorists and other adversaries. An ex-CIA engineer convicted of leaking the agency's secret spying tools to WikiLeaks has been found with 2,400 likely child sexual abuse images on a laptop inside his federal lockup, federal prosecutors allege in a letter unsealed on Wednesday. WikiLeaks’ latest release details what it claims is the CIA’s hacking activities, including compromising phones, TVs, cars and becoming an NSA with less accountability. Vault 7 is a series of documents that WikiLeaks began to publish on 7 March 2017, detailing the activities and capabilities of the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to perform electronic surveillance and cyber warfare. Joshua Schulte, who chose to defend himself at a New York City retrial, had told jurors in closing arguments that the CIA and FBI made him a scapegoat for an embarrassing public release of a trove of CIA secrets by WikiLeaks in 2017.
