How to contact Sarawak Report.. In order to avoid hacking of your communications with us please follow these steps carefully. You should make sure you understand the difference between Encrypted and Anonymous email. Sending us an Encrypted email, does not prevent snoops from knowing who you are, so your email should be anonymous as well and be sent via an anonymous browser. So as a first step start browsing the web using a private VPN or the TOR browser, designed to make you anonymous. You should access Sarawak Report in this way and should not download our key directly except from one of these anonymous browsers. This helps prevent snoops from knowing that you are even looking to communicate with us directly. Once on the private network create a new anonymous email address (using Tor and Hushmail, or ruggedinbox.com) so again you will not be detected. Next, make sure your email is encrypted using the so-called PGP/GPG email encryption tool. You need to be registered with a key and you need to have a key for the person to whom you are sending the email. Our PGP key is published online at http://pgp.mit.edu and on our website at http://sarawakreport.org/key.txt. Only we can open emails sent to that encryption key address, but again make sure you do not access the details on an open server, as that will be visible – go through the private browser/ VPN. STEPS: 1/ Install the TOR Browser from https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en or use your own secure VPN provider 2/ Install GPG Tool,(gpgtools.org for mac or search for gpg4win if you use windows) eg Thuderbird and the Enigmail plugin, or use a webmail provider like ruggedinbox.com or hushmail.com 3/ Using TOR or at an internet cafe, visit our site and download our key. 4/ Encrypt a message to us using the GPG tools if you're using webmail and TOR, or using Thunderbird and Enigmail if you're using another email account (but please use a VPN for your safety) 5/ Use your new email account to send us an email at info@sarawakreport.org. Paste in the PGP encrypted message you made earlier. Our key hash is: DCFB9F7B More information on how to do the steps above can be found at the Centre for Investigative Journalists website: http://www.tcij.org/resources/handbooks/infosec Another very secure option is to use the TAILS operating system instead of Windows or Mac OS. https://tails.boum.org/
