DDoSecrets does a wonderful public service, and I'm glad they exist.

That they gatekeep certain information for whatever defines a credible journalist in their mind makes me distrust them. Feels like another Bellingcat. Superficially about outing the wicked, but ultimately aligned with the powers that be.

I got that impression too. Gatekeeping sensitive information is not necessarily bad, but the entire thing is sketchy. For example, is it legal or ethical for this group to have Washington Post data that was leaked or stolen? Are we really supposed to be against something called "Free Speech Union" because of the owners having controversial views? There is clearly a political angle to most of the stuff I've seen at a glance, and a lot of politics on one side only.
