Safety & Your Rights

Your protection is built into the system

The Right to Verifiable Truth

Every individual has the inherent right to record and publish verified accounts of public events. This framework is anchored to Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Zero-Knowledge Isolation Edge Anonymization Client-Side EXIF Scrubbing

1. Cryptographic Data Minimization

Uncollected data cannot be subpoenaed, leaked, or intercepted. Confidentiality is maintained by design:

  • Zero Identity Association: Publication tokens are decoupled from persistent accounts.
  • Automated Sanitization: Geolocation and hardware signatures are scrubbed in the browser before upload.
  • Mathematical Isolation: Cryptographic proofs replace vulnerable plaintext identifiers.

2. High-Risk Operational Protocols

📡

Network Obfuscation

In restricted environments, use Tor or a trusted VPN. Avoid publishing through mobile networks tied to government-registered identity.

📱

Device Security & Quick Exit

Use strong passcodes instead of biometrics. Press Quick Exit to instantly clear local data and leave the site.

3. Prohibited Conduct

  • Doxxing — Publishing non-public personal details without consent.
  • Harassment & Coercion — Targeted intimidation or threats.
  • Synthetic Disinformation — Fabricated or heavily manipulated media meant to deceive.
  • Spam & Sybil Attacks — Automated or fake accounts designed to abuse the system.

4. Community Governance & Trust Tiers

Citizen Talk — Open discussion moderated by community flags and automated heuristics.

Witness Voice — Cryptographically verified records with immutable timestamps and integrity hashes.

Protocol Mission

Building an immutable public square where factual reporting is permanently protected by architecture, not by promises.
