Dead Man's Switch. Something something Notary Public
Whatever Snowden did
And you'll need to publicly advertise that you are using one for it to be effective.
Not necessarily. The only people who would need to know are the people who are already researching you to have you killed for a potential leak, and they would operate under the assumption of a DMS in place already.
Also, the payload needs to be worse than what you are already disclosing...
Not necessarily. They just need to want to prevent it from being disclosed more than they want to kill you.
Worth noting that this is something that can change over time. For example, if Snowden had done such a thing, it would be essentially useless now, since the known and accepted activities of the US government are now worse than what Snowden revealed.
Definitely a dead man switch, and several letters from me and my psychiatrist specifying that I'm not suicidal.
"Circumstances change"
Only use encrypted communication, use a phone running GraphineOS, and your computer should be running a secure OS like QubesOS (in addition to Tor and/or MullvadVPN). Basically you need maximum security and maximum privacy, a Thinkpad running Libreboot is the best laptop and a Pixel will be the best phone.
Good suggestions, however, I don't think even pigeon carriers will stop yourself from mysteriously dying of suicide with 2 shots in the back of your head.
Of course, at the same time its not harmful to do as much as you can. However, as the saying goes "the game was rigged from the start"
It’s pretty sad that not only are we at a point where this is a very legitimate question, but that the answer is something that should be taught in schools.
If you have a union...
School aint teaching this shit. That would imply that you should be a whistleblower or be a witness to wrongdoings. No way governments would let this be taught.
This is what parents should be teaching at home.
Tails on a usb on a personal device only. Never do anything in person. Redact all personal information for all people yourself included. Use a pdf to image embedded pdf conversion tool to hide all possible pdf metadata. Remove all image metadata. Never tell anyone any traceable information this includes names, locations, times, contacts, you voice, anything that can in any way be identified as unique to u.
Do not raise suspicion quit within a short period of disclosure of information, speak out about issurs, etc. Use simplex chat or pgp encrypted email with a new randomly generated email address not linked to personal info (phone number, existing email etc). Do this all via tor on ur tails install.
Data exfiltration is difficult and can be linked/traced depending on threat model (boing will have extreme capacity and can be considered as dangerouse as a government actor). If u can take the device home and their is no device opened detection in BIOS then extract drive plug into personal device thats booted with tails and copy files from drive to tails (avoids any logging of files being copied or what fikes).
If files are on a secure server then exfil will be traceable. U can avoid this by taking pictures of screen with an oldschoop dslr (be carfull of information leakage (the monitor reflections etc).
If u are to testify and therefore need to disclose your real identity then u could theoreticly livestream ur entire life untill the point of testifying at which point u state clearly for the record u are not suicidal that u fear for you life and hope to hell thwy dont suicide u out of spite. Also if ur in the states carry a firearm and learn how to use it effectively.
Also deadmans switch which publicly dumps info. Files, audio/video from ur phone streamed to a remote server (in an internal durastinction they cant get to easily or quickly)
Idk tho just some thoughts
Psych eval, video uploads, video camera on me at all times with an atty that has access to the recordings.
There are apps that will upload video to the web live while recording in the background. Don't have any interactions with random strangers that you aren't recording. Have security cams at your house recording 24/7 saving remotely to a secure server.
None. If you've ever worked at Boeing, you know this is not something they are capable of doing (honestly it is a shock they are in business at all).
All it takes is money to hire someone who is capable.
Their margins are negative (like 45%negative) in 2 of 3 business units. Business skills like those suggest the leadership isn't even smart enough to think of suiciding anyone, which aligns with my personal experience there.
there exists a dark package infrastructure. usually used for stealing money from grannies but does drug drops and others. get in contact with them on a burner. send them the package with fee and they will deliver it anywhere you need it.
make sure you find a scapegoat within your company that knows what's going on but doesn't know you know. make them the whistleblower.
sit back and enjoy the shitshow as the trust breaks down and the company goes under.
*whose adversary

Who is?
That's probably the CIA poison affecting my ability to typ...
