Move over WikiLeaks. Welcome Openleaks!

Looks like Julian Assange can add another hat to his collection of names he's being called. Called a 'slave driver' by some of his workers, Assange is losing some key members of his staff. These budding leakers are planning to open a whistleblower site of their own named Openleaks.

According to the Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter, the new site will be called "Openleaks," and like its predecessor, will allow whistleblowers to leak information to the public anonymously. However, the new site will differ in that it won't be responsible for hosting the information itself directly for the public eye, but will instead act as an intermediary between whistleblowers and media organizations.

"Our long term goal is to build a strong, transparent platform to support whistleblowers--both in terms of technology and politics--while at the same time encouraging others to start similar projects," a colleague wishing to remain anonymous is quoted by Dagens Nyheter as saying.
