I wonder if other news organizations with paywalls will follow their example? #sunlight #PublicServiceJournalism

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow

These two glorious fosters have emerged from their shells! From Shy Boys to Bouncy Boys, and I’m so proud.

They’re looking for an adult-only forever home, with calm, patient folk in Oxfordshire. If that’s you, please let me know!

Not everything should be sold PBS, NPR, Signal, Proton these aren’t luxuries. They’re lines of defense against surveillance, manipulation, and the slow erasure of public good. We don’t owe corporations our data, attention, or trust. #FundPublicMedia #PublicServiceJournalism #DecolonizeTheInternet
