Someone who exposes wrongdoing which they have witnessed or deduced, typically by being privy to inside information while at work. |
A whistleblower has inside knowledge of activities which are concealed from the general public. The word "whistleblower" was coined by Ralph Nader. The insider testimony of whistleblowers means that they are invaluable in Wikispooks' mission to shed on the different between observed activities and claimed activities of people and groups.

Official narrative
The official narrative is that whistleblowers are welcomed as long as they act in the public interest. Many nations and other large organisations have enacted "Whistleblower Protection" measures specifically designed to protect whistleblowers. These encourage whistleblowing by offering statutory protection and/or financial rewards for those who expose wrongdoing.
Problems
More often than not, so-called "whistleblower protection" is in practice no such thing[1] and less than 1/10 of those who follow official whistleblowing procedures reporting any benefit from them.[2] Researcher Brian Martin describes them as "trojan horses".[1] Since 9/11 in particular, the official narrative is belied by ever harsher treatment of actual or would be whistleblowers, up to and including the murder of the those who show themselves intent on publicising particularly sensitive information.[3]
In 1995, Steve Wilson and Jane Akre refused to tailor their investigation into RBGH to suit the wishes of Monsanto's PR department, and hoped that as whistleblowers they would be entitled to protection or compensation.[4]. However, a Florida Court of Appeals denied them any protection, since the US has no laws against distorting or falsifying the news.[5]
Legal compensation
Some jurisdiction's award a fixed percentage of money recovered to whistleblowers of financial fruad. Brad Birkenfeld received over $100 million on this basis, although he was initially jailed.
Support groups
In 2004, FBI whistleblower Sibel Edmonds launched the National Security Whistleblowers Coalition to try to assist other whistleblowers. In December 2013, speaking at the CCC conference, purported MI6 whistleblower, Annie Machon, announced that she would be starting the Courage Foundation to protect whistleblowers.

US/Deep state | “The apparatus of the American deep state is a vast system of institutions in which the proverbial right arm does not know what the left one is doing. The CIA, FBI, NSA and the military services are compartmentalized to a point where very few of the bureaucrats in their employ can put their finger precisely on what is going on. Best known examples of that kind of entity are the resistance movements in German occupied Europe of World War II, and the cell system of an expansionist communist movement in the early stages of its development. Movie goers are familiar with the ‘need to know’ limitations on the information given to participants in an operation. The numerous levels of ‘security clearance’ make that clear. They have created labyrinths of hidden policy making over which no effective political control can exist. This applies to internal control as well. The institutions of the American deep state are riven by turf battles, schisms, something quite noticeable in their conflict with President Trump and, indeed, eruptions from officials with a conscience. This produces leaks and whistleblowing. These may be seen as emergency actions in the absence of functioning accountability structures.” | Karel van Wolferen | 4 April 2017 |

There are a few gaps, and whistleblowers who don't even get a mention, this is a thought provoking selection which should give you an idea of what corporate media have been censoring.
