Part 2/12:
The panel was introduced with humor and humility, featuring Julia Anguin, investigative journalist at ProPublica; Jack Gillum, investigative reporter at AP focusing on technology and government accountability; and Laura Pites, a celebrated documentary filmmaker. The moderator, brandishing a cryptography background, framed the discussion as a "QA test" for developers—an opportunity to understand what tools journalists need, the hurdles they face, and how cryptography can better serve their craft.
