I've got a web page describing methods of getting in touch securely. Advice welcome on what to add, cut or edit. It's hard to write both for wizards and Muggles. See gellman.us/pgp
Suggestions to improve "Secure Contacts" page?
This is a great page, and smells to me like operational experience, which is rare and valuable.
You're solving the first contact problem where the source reaches out first, and SecureDrop seems to me like the right answer for that, and https://tcfmailvault.info/ has clear instructions. I expect a .onion site is a reasonably high bar for most people, but it won't stop someone who has a need to tell you something and is thinking about concrete consequences.
And then PGP, Ricochet, OTR, Pond, SSH... this is astoundingly thorough. I wish I had strong opinions about what could be cut, as I can see where each of these tools might be most convenient. Ricochet I know little about, anyone got an opinion?
That said, perhaps you could split this into a "basic" and "more options" page just to make the whole thing a smoother experience. And I do wonder about a stripped down minimum of SecureDrop plus Signal. Would that be a reasonable set of defaults for any journalist who might want to support secure contact?
Would it be weird to add a 'bump into me accidentally' note under your 'The Old Fashioned Way' section?
