Directive 01

Absolute Source Confidentiality

Reality Decoded operates under strict journalistic and ethical protection protocols. We recognize that the exposure of systemic corruption relies entirely on the courage of insiders, whistleblowers, and technical contributors.

Under our operational charter, we maintain a zero-retention policy for sensitive metadata when utilizing our Secure Drop Portal.

Directive 02

Cryptographic Siloing & PGP

All communications containing classified intelligence should be encrypted using our official PGP Public Key. Once a transmission is decrypted within our secure air-gapped terminal, source identifiers are immediately scrubbed.

Directive 03

Data Retention & Jurisdiction

We do not log visitor IP addresses on secure drop endpoints. Content published on Reality Decoded is distributed across decentralized server networks designed to resist legal suppression, gag orders, and malicious subpoenas.
