We (@FreedomofPress) published a report today on the unprecedented number of journalists arrested in the United States this year, and I encourage everyone working in media to read it. The numbers are staggering. 1200% increase! freedom.press/news/2020-repo…

One of these days, people should consider the possibility that the reason we've gone SEVEN YEARS without a single piece of evidence is because it didn't happen. Crazy, right? twitter.com/dnvolz/status/…

@thezoulasylum I have no ownership stake in any tech company, full stop. Not a single share. Nor have I ever done a paid endorsement of any kind. That's how much I love you.

@ryanol No, Cellebrite cannot decrypt Signal communications. What they sell is a forensic device cops connect to insecure, unlockable phones to download a bunch of popular apps' data more easily than doing it manually. They just added Signal to that app list. That's it. There's no magic.

If you're curious about the pardon controversy but haven't followed all the arguments being made for (and against!), @ggreenwald just wrote a comprehensive summary. greenwald.substack.com/p/the-case-for…

"A US appellate court in September ruled the NSA’s mass domestic surveillance was illegal, as well as likely a violation of the Fourth Amendment. The court knew about this program only because of one of this generation’s most consequential whistleblowers..." twitter.com/ggreenwald/sta…

Spotting guide for attacks on whistleblowers:
1) Extraordinary claims made without evidence (she gave information to the Chinese, he got people killed)
2) Demands for obedience to process ("proper channels!") with no consideration for the consequences
3) Personal dislike

Apologies to any other tentacle-porn enthusiasts I may have overlooked. I'm not here to judge.
1163
The primary public figures still openly against ending the War on Whistleblowers are now down to John Brennan, Dick Cheney's progeny, and (literally) one tentacle-porn enthusiast. That's how far we've come.

Today I learned the dollar has lost 99.93% of its value since 2013 (relative to Bitcoin). twitter.com/Snowden/status…

I thought I knew how bad times had gotten, but then my wife told me they took the McChicken off the dollar menu.

Mr. President, if you grant only one act of clemency during your time in office, please: free Julian Assange. You alone can save his life. @realDonaldTrump

Big: The FBI secretly abused the same authority that caused a mass surveillance scandal under Obama in a new way to monitor connections to an unidentified US website. When Congress asked about it, the Director of National Intelligence initially lied—before being caught by DOJ. twitter.com/charlie_savage…

Politicians take note: smearing whistleblowers and publishers with obvious bullshit no longer gets you showered in likes, it gets you ratioed by a furious public.
It is time to end the war on whistleblowers.
