Cryptome

Cryptome is a controversial website, maintained by its owner John Young, that functions as a repository for information that is prohibited or suppressed by various governments.

It also contains obscure documents relating to freedom of speech, cryptography, surveillance and so on.

Although many of the files available are of little importance, Cryptome has caused a stir in the past with items such as:

  • The MI6 files - a list of MI6 agents.
  • The Eyeball series - a series of detailed maps for sensitive government facilities.
  • Pictures of dead U.S. soldiers from the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
