Michael Moore announces TrumpiLeaks, a website for anonymous anti-Trump leakers

Source: Salon

Tuesday, Jun 6, 2017 11:31 AM EDT

Progressive activist and filmmaker Michael Moore made headlines last year when he correctly predicted that Donald Trump would defeat Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election. In February he then launched a new website that would help his fellow activists find and participate in anti-Trump resistance events.

Now, Moore has launched what will perhaps be his most important project yet: One that will help whistleblowers who want to expose corruption within the Trump administration.

The new site on Michael Moore’s website is called TrumpiLeaks (presumably a play on words from WikiLeaks). According to Moore, it “provides the most high-powered encryption technology to enable courageous whistleblowers to privately communicate with me and my team.” Although he points out that “no form of digital communication is 100 percent secure, the tools we’re using provide the most secure technology possible to protect your anonymity (and if you don’t require anonymity, you can just email me here).”

Moore’s tools include a pair of “free, end-to-end encrypted messaging apps” called Signal and Peerio, a “free messaging app with end-to-end encryption that also allows the transfer of documents, photos and videos” called WhatsApp, an encrypted email account, a regular postage mail address and a regular email account.

From Huffington Post:

>> I need one of you to help me. It might get dangerous. It may get us in trouble. But we’re running out of time. We must act. It’s our patriotic duty.<<

>> We’ve put together several tools you can use to securely send information and documents as well as photographs, video and/or audio recordings. While no form of digital communication is 100 percent secure, the tools we’re using at TrumpiLeaks provide the most secure technology possible to protect your anonymity (and if you don’t require anonymity, you can just email me here).

>> I know this is risky. I knew we may get in trouble. But too much is at stake to play it safe. And along with the Founding Fathers, I’ve got your back. <<

I'm not certain anything one does online is ever safe.
