How to (securely) contact me

I'm writing this on Github as it will give the reader wanting to get in contact some level of plausible deniability as opposed to visiting my website.

While both websites are encrypted, visiting a more generic website gives you more plausible deniability. Any institution that can wiretap or has metadata retention will only see you connecting to https://gist.github.com/ and not which page youre visiting.

Who am I

I'm a technologist at Amnesty's Security Lab.

Formerly, I was a senior security analyst at OCCRP.

I operate on London time.

Reasonably secure contact methods

I have various ways of establishing contact, some are more anonymous than others, please assess which communication method might fit your situation best.

PGP

You can encrypt securely using PGP to my e-mail address: drwhax [ @ ] riseup . net
