Is wikileaks' an NGO or free media and information given about USA is true and also why USA government do not take control of it?

WikiLeaks is often classified as a non-governmental organization (NGO) focused on transparency and freedom of information, but it also operates as a platform for investigative journalism. The information it publishes about the U.S. and other governments comes from leaked documents, and while some claims have been verified, others are disputed. The U.S. government has limited control over WikiLeaks due to First Amendment protections for free speech and press, as well as legal challenges to try to suppress its activities. Additionally, efforts to shut it down could provoke backlash regarding censorship and transparency rights.
