WikiLeaks is a website that allows users to anonymously post various corporate and government documents. On February 15, 2008, a California court granted an injunction which essentially removed WikiLeaks.org from the Internet. Though the court turned off the domain name, users would still access the website through its IP address, or one of the many "cover names".BBC: Whistle Blower Site Taken Offline
