🎤 “One journalist alone, under pressure, can be stopped. But fifty journalists in twenty countries, working on the same story, are much harder to stop.”
🌍 Forbidden Stories strengthens its #SafeBoxNetwork with 2 new local correspondents!
As threats against journalists continue to grow worldwide, Forbidden Stories is expanding its team to safeguard the ongoing investigations of journalists at risk. We are pleased to welcome two new correspondents, bringing our global network to 8 correspondents worldwide.
🔴🎤 [LIVE FROM LONDON] Trust Conference #TC2026 | Exposing the machinery of digital repression.
“Disinformation is organized. Corruption is organized. Surveillance is organized. So, we, journalists, should be organized as well.”
@laurentrichard0, founder of Forbidden Stories, is taking the stage at the London Trust Conference 2026 @trustconf hosted by the @TRF.
From Russian surveillance technology deployed in Iran to Pegasus spyware in Morocco and the global disinformation industry exposed by our #StoryKillers investigation, Laurent is revealing how Forbidden Stories and its partners have uncovered the hidden machinery of digital repression.
🔎 Facial recognition, spyware, disinformation campaigns: these powerful tools are designed to operate in the shadows. But investigative journalism can bring them to light.
Through these investigations, Laurent is highlighting a powerful message: cross-border collaboration is essential to exposing those who seek to silence journalists and manipulate information.
✊ Because when journalists work together, their stories become much harder to silence.
🇧🇷 The evidence and documents relating to the investigation: ‘A Armadura: as contradições de uma operação policial que terminou com dois sem-terra mortos no Pará’, published today by Daniel Camargos on @reporterb, are protected by Forbidden Stories’ #SafeBoxNetwork.
