Resumen
Este trabalho se concentra sobre a evolução recente o direito e a capacidade dos jornalistas de proteger o anonimato de suas fontes no Reino Unido, particularmente à luz das revelações de Snowden em junho de 2013, bem como a importância da cooperação entre a organização de mídia online WikiLeaks e as organiza ções noticiosas. O artigo explora duas dificuldades principais enfrentadas por jornalistas: a noção de um privilégio profissional qualificado e a extensão desconhecida de solicitações de acobertamento de divulgação por autoridades públicas envolvendo comunicações dados e metadados. Ao fazê-lo, o estudo comenta o caso Wikileaks, que protege suas fontes anônimas por meio da alta segurança de dados e criptografia. Os resultados tendem a mostrar que a prática de cobertura de vigilância digital de massa de comunicações individuais, incluindo jornalistas, está a minar a proteção da fonte e a ascensão do Wikileaks como um modelo alternativo está desafiando o papel tradicional de jornalistas como mediadores e gatekeepers na era digital.Citas
