An investigation by Mother Jones reveals that several prominent figures listed as WikiLeaks advisory board members, including Noam Chomsky and Ben Laurie, claim they have no formal involvement with the organization. The site's lack of transparency and the amateurish nature of its "advisory" listings raise questions about its credibility and funding. Comparisons are made to Cryptome.org, highlighting a rift in the whistleblower community regarding WikiLeaks' methods.
