Tech Whistleblowing: Resources, Ramifications, & Resiliency

October 7, 2021 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

Tech sector whistleblowers have played an increasingly vital role in exposing racism and toxic workplace environments, algorithmic bias, and other platform harms. But the cost of coming forward with information can be tremendous – including psychological, legal, and employment ramifications. This webinar will explore what is needed to build and maintain safe and secure channels for tech whistleblowers to share platform harms with the public, and how civil society can support whistleblowers who boldly tell the truth.

Speakers:

  • Delphine Halgand-Mishra, Executive Director, The Signals Network

  • Ifeoma Ozoma, Founder and Principal, Earthseed

  • Trevor Timm, Executive Director, Freedom of the Press Foundation

Moderator:

  • Amber French, Executive Director, Media Democracy Fund
