@digiphile @mathewi Good piece!
I think it's too dangerous for the journalist to huddle in the same instance. They are looking for some sort of "verification" by being in that instance, but that's just too easy to block.
Granted, you can block individual users instead. In any case this, doesn't seem very decentralized to have them all in one instance.
Why not spread around and use the built-in verification system?
