TL;DR

— Personal devices only
— Don’t leak from work, on a work device, or from work Wi-Fi
— Use Signal and Signal’s camera
— The reporter should recreate any image you leak before displaying it to the public

also: don't go to an american journalist, pick one from a country that has strong legal protections and the budget for meaningful legal representation like der speigal in germany.
