London (CNN) — Arguing that WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has “weakened the organization,” a newly organized rival to the website known for leaking official secrets says it will launch Monday.
The founders of Openleaks.org say they are former WikiLeaks members unhappy with the way WikiLeaks is being run under Assange.
“It has weakened the organization,” one of those founders, Daniel Domscheit-Berg says in a documentary airing Sunday night on Swedish television network SVT. He said WikiLeaks has become “too much focused on one person, and one person is always much weaker than an organization.”
In an e-mail to CNN, Domscheit-Berg said the group hopes to launch its site Monday.
