559: Tech Surge

SecureDrop and the Freedom of the Press Foundation

The Freedom of the Press Foundation has released "SecureDrop," a whistleblower submission platform originally developed by Aaron Swartz as "Deadrop." The system underwent a security audit by Jacob Appelbaum and is being marketed as a secure way for sources to leak documents to journalists. This technology is central to the new investigative model being pursued by Greenwald and his associates.
