General Opsec Guide for Transferring Information Anonymously
https://wikispooks.com/wiki/Wikispooks:Anonymous_Submissions As of January 2017, WikiSpooks has withdrawn provision of an Anonymous file upload upload facility. Anonymous submissions are still welcome but, in view of low historical usage of the secure upload-form facility, pgp-encrypted email (with or without file attachments) is the only practical method available for the site. Use of pgp-encryption with a single-use email address over a public WiFi facility is probably as 'anonymous' as was the discontinued form. Note: Unless anonymity is of fundamental importance, the best way to publish a document file on Wikispooks is through the 'Regular file upload' page, available to all registered users. Files uploaded using this option are immediately available to both view and edit on the WikiSpooks site. https://twitter.com/ericgeller/status/871842516458496001 Obviously if a news outlet is to publish a document, it should minimize any information conveyed beyond the message. Actually US Gov FOI practices typically involve printing out a redacted document before re-scanning it. Ideally the best thing for the Intercept to have done is to use a low resolution black-white copy machine, and mail the document again since there is no urgency in this matter. Naturally I am interested in when news organizations will publish unredacted documents. After five years, information loses a lot of value. Lot of software end of lifed five years ago, which doesn't include Windows XP, which was EOL'd more recently than five years ago. Regardless, I think journalists should be more carefully vetted, maybe some of them met the Russian ambassador. ...... https://wikileaks.org/clinton-emails/emailid/19174#efmAMfANh
