How free is our freedom of the press? | Trevor Timm
In the US, the press has a right to publish secret information the public needs to know, protected by the First Amendment. But whistleblowers, the source of virtually every important story about national security since 9/11, have few places to hide. In this concise, informative talk, Freedom of the Press co-founder and TED Fellow Trevor Timm traces the recent history of government action against individuals who expose crime and injustice and advocates for technology that can help them do it safely and anonymously.
