EVENING UPDATE:
1) 50 states, 349 districts, 80% representation in Operation Anti-King. Amazing.
2) We're missing Al Green's district, TX-09. Unbelievable.
There's one day left, let's make the most of it! Follow this 🧵 for those districts that still need representation!

2) Take the conversation offline! Many of the remaining districts are rural - if you know someone there they probably talk on the phone more often than they check bluesky. Share this doc with them and tell them why you're participating. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

One of the things I’ve come to appreciate being with privacy folks this week is how unique Signal is at this moment. I know it’s maybe a cliche at this point, but it needs to be said.
