Julian Assange, Founder of Wikileaks.

Julian assange’s whistleblowing website WikiLeaks was hacked on Monday following the publication of the second batch of leaked Democratic National Committee (DNC) emails.

​On Sunday, WikiLeaks released 8,263 emails belonging to the members of the Democratic National Committee (DNC).

WikiLeaks, in OCtober had also released thousands of emails from the hacked account of Clinton’s campaign chairman John Podesta. Similar to the Podesta emails, the DNC emails reported Sunday were not in sequence and out of context, including mass mailings as well as internal correspondence.

However, Monday’s email dump was not the first one. The whistleblowers published 19,252 emails and 8,034 attachments from key figure in the DNC.
