The threats women journalists face are more invasive, personal & more psychologically damaging. We cannot protect journalism without protecting women in journalism. "Until women journalists are truly safe, online and offline, press freedom will never be complete." @AngSonja
@quinnmck, Executive Director, @article19org warns: weakening encryption weakens journalism. No encrypted tools, no protection from state surveillance. "There’s no such thing as partially broken encryption." Once it’s broken, it’s useless. #17WSCLecture #WSCLecture2025
"If the government wants to get you, the government will." At #WoleSoyinkaLecture2025, @fisayosoyombo warned that Nigeria’s surveillance tools tilt power dangerously in the government’s favour which he says is a direct attack on the public’s right to know. #17WSCLecture
At the 2025 #WSCLecture, keynote speaker @angelaquintal, spoke on how authorities use telecom loopholes to track & arrest journalists. The result? An effect on press freedom & public interest journalism.
This piece was adapted from @angelaquintal's 13 July 2025 keynote speech at the @WSoyinkaCentre to mark Professor Soyinka’s 91st birthday. Watch the full speech and discussion that followed: youtu.be/S84f78cJYUg?t=…
