Who is able to make a whistleblower platform for Epstein/Maxwell whistleblowers?

22 points by jenflute ↗ HN
Who is able to make a whistleblower platform without fear of personal risk, for Epstein / Maxwell whistlblowers, for both those who knew things (associates, workers on properties, operations, etc, and for victims and survivors? A group of close supporters of some of the prominent survivors are looking for someone looking for a pro-bono project to get their teeth into, which can signbifically effect to help the cause of truth, anti-abuse and exposure of highest level systemic corruption. We would like to have it underway soon, to be able to put out open calls before Ghislaine Maxwell's trial in April.

Just FYI I clicked on you and there is no email. You probably put it in the box visible to only you and HN for account recovery purposes. It’s the about box you need it in if you want to share. Do yourself a favor and make it hard to scrape if that’s even still possible in 2021.

Having the CIA AND the Mossad as your opponents will not work out well.

Do you know of any sources that explain the connection?

There's a lot more to come out on this part of the story in the coming year.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to think that inserting yourself, a non state actor or intelligence asset, in between a conspiracy / murky operation of the Epstein sort might not be a great idea. Similar to how starting a militia for any cause is likely to attract negative attention from the gov boys...

That's why she wants help setting up a secure site for leaks.

You've effectively answered your own question sport.

I would assume that she could create an email address using a service like Proton and access it through Tor Browser.

SecureDrop already exists and has been used by top journalistic orgs.

In general, wouldn't it make sense to leak to the big newspapers directly (e.g. those listed on this site)?

Secure drop is not a middleman, each newspaper/org has its own instance.

The death of Epstein was surprising insomuch as it appears to have destroyed any remaining semblance of trust many Americans have with their government.

The CEO of Cloudflare visits HN frequently. Maybe there is a philanthropic aspect to this and they could show off the capabilities of their CDN. Have you contacted Cloudflare? If they agree to it, ensure you set options to allow Tor users to post data and give your audience a link to the browsers that can use Tor natively.

Wikileaks didn’t go so well for the founders or leakers, last time.
