Hello, my name is James Pearson.

I’m a London-based journalist with Reuters covering digital espionage, cybersecurity and intelligence. I do not cover tech, business, or surveys. My social media contacts are on this page. My work email is my first name followed by a dot followed by my last name, at Reuters dot com. You can read my stories via the link in the top right corner of this page.

If you would rather contact me anonymously or via a more secure channel, here are some ways to do so:

Signal/WhatsApp

Signal is my preferred method of communication. Signal and Whatsapp have end-to-end encryption. This number works with Telegram, but I don’t recommend you use that app. You can contact me on: +44 (O) 79 27 34 74 51

ProtonMail

ProtonMail is an encrypted email service that offers free accounts. You can email me on pearswick at protonmail dot com.

Reuters SecureDrop

If you have significant information of public interest, Reuters has several ways tipsters can communicate confidentially with its journalists. No system is 100 percent secure. But the tools at this page can help protect your anonymity. Link here (please address to James Pearson)
