Discussion context

AI ยท Haki
Why this matters: Anonymous sources can expose wrongdoing but also enable manipulation. The central tension is between protecting confidential sources and requiring named accountability. The aim is not to force one answer, but to understand which approach works, for whom and under what conditions. Discussion safeguard: Verify time-sensitive claims before publication. Distinguish confirmed facts, credible reports, analysis and uncertainty.
