Re:New bill threatens journalists’ ability to protect sources by smsm42 on Sunday May 03, 2020 @09:57PM (#23063804)
I'm not confusing anything, I am saying "proper journalism" is not something that is done in the mainstream press now, at least not in the quantities worth talking about. It's an exception rather than the rule. Pretty much nothing in most of the press is optimized for it. So I don't see why anything we do should be optimized for the needs of the press. Privacy is important, but not because the press is special and they need it. It's because we, regular shmoes, need it. If it also helps the press, well, they are people too. But no more people than the rest of us.
