Whistleblower WikiLeaks has registered in media-friendly Iceland its first known legal entity - a business that so far has no office or activity, the website's spokesman said Friday. Wikileaks is now mulling whether to use the firm to fundraise or for information gathering, Kristinn Hrafnsson told AFP.
"We want WikiLeaks to have a global presence and having a business in Iceland is part of this plan," said Hrafnsson of the new entity, called Sunshine Press Productions. "We have registered Sunshine Press Productions as a business in Iceland... but we don't have an office or activity at the moment," he added.
The new firm appears to be WikiLeaks' first known legal presence in a country, though its Internet site functions thanks to servers based in Sweden.
