Hi everyone — I'm joining Substack following the layoffs at The Washington Post, where I wrote the tech column for 8 years.

Subscribe to follow what I'm working on next. My first post-Post post is coming soon.

Many people have asked how to support Post journalists. Two ways to help:

• Donate to a fund for laid-off Posties: bit.ly/4tlYOsx

• Donate to a fund for international employees, including local researchers and translators: bit.ly/4rAGk64

• Subscribe to some news today. I don’t care where — but it matters that people are willing to pay for real reporting.

And for me: If your organization could use expertise in tech accountability, AI, digital rights or investigations, I'd love to hear from you.
