Hush Line is a safe way for concerned employees or citizens to find someone who can help with legal and ethical concerns. You do not need an account to share information, tips are end-to-end encrypted, and Hush Line cannot read message contents.
Here are some tips for people who want to disclose information responsibly:
- 📱 Never use work-issued devices or networks to disclose information.
- 🤝 Use the Hush Line Directory to find a lawyer first. Many work on contingency, which means they're free until they win your case.
- 🙅 Don't take confidential information from your workplace before talking to a lawyer.
- 😬 Disclosing to journalists first can waive legal whistleblower protections in the United States in some cases.
- ❤️ Disclosure is stressful. Speaking with a mental health professional can help you manage the process.
