Podcast: Tech Freedom Coop is Protecting Critical Evidence

“How can human rights and social justice advocates and investigators protect their data and technology infrastructure in an age of rising authoritarianism in the United States and abroad?”

Justin Hendrix, the CEO and Editor of Tech Policy Press, a nonprofit media venture concerned with the intersection of technology and democracy, posed this question to two podcast guests: HRDAG’s director of research, Patrick Ball, and Maheen Khan, director of technology at the Invisible Institute. His August 30, 2026 podcast interview with Patrick and Maheen explored how the new Technology Freedom Cooperative can help nonprofit organizations protect evidence, reduce their dependence on big tech platforms, and build capacity.
