What’s your hope for the future of whistleblowing? ✨

To celebrate this day, our Whistleblower Protection Program Director Margaux Ewen chose to speak about her hope for a world where individuals who risk everything to expose wrongdoing are celebrated for their courage, not punished or blacklisted.

Let’s honor that hope by making their safety our shared responsibility.

"First off, “be available everywhere.” In the past, whistleblowers have been burned because their web histories pointed directly to when and where they reached out to their journalist. So, use the commons of the internet to give people the information they need to securely establish first contact. If you’re running a tipline advertisement on your own website, use an encrypted and safe URL that will not indicate that the public has visited your explicit whistleblowing instructions.

Third-party services like Google are not your friend for the most sensitive of data. Google can definitely be subpoenaed for all the juicy whistleblower details. Find an alternative. Make your submission portals available over Tor, too! Visiting an onion address can make a huge difference.

Lastly, encrypt all the things. This means data in transit as well as at rest. If you are going to plop the next Panama Papers on your hard drive, encrypt that computer like your life depends on it."
