> Like if you were Russia or Iran right now, paying a bit of money to keep wikileaks' servers running would seem like money well invested.

Who do you think paid for those servers in the past, lol. Seems that the GRU has defunded the project, though - they must have other higher priority projects.

Some details: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GRU#Unit_74455

The link you shared doesn't appear to mention anything about funding or defunding anything. It seems to be more about coordinated dissemination of documents. I don't feel like I'm any closer to knowing who does or doesn't fund on going operations of WikiLeaks.

It would be really easy to figure such things out if intelligence agencies published all their activity, but shockingly this is not the world that we live in.
