Only hours after doxing Wikipedia volunteers to a court in India, Wikipedia tweeted out this 5-month old feel-good piece about protecting volunteers.

Do you ever wonder how Wikipedia, the free online encyclopedia, protects your personal information so you can read, share, and edit it privately and safely?

“Because people can not contribute what they know and learn from others if they are afraid of being tracked by ads or spied on, if they fear censorship, or if they fear for their digital safety.”

The open letter to the Wikimedia Foundation now has 1375 signatures.  I can remember when anything with 500 signature was a big deal.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:2024_open_letter_to_the_Wikimedia_Foundation
