How to Post Anonymously

If you wish to post anonymously, you have a few options:

  • Create a new email account using a free service like riseup.net, gmail.com, yahoo.com, etc. and use that email account to post the article. This is the simplest method, however it contains some security risks. Someone like the FBI could potentially trace the posting to you if they were able to access the IMC server, find the email associated with your account, then trace the email account to you. This is pretty unlikely and would probably require a seizing the IMC server and either seizing the email server, or getting the operator to cooperate.
  • Using an anonymous remailer to email the IMC editorial collective at imc-rochester-editorial@lists.indymedia.org. This process is somewhat more complicated, but secures your anonymity much better. Read the Anonymous tutorial for instructions

Account Creation Policy Change

Rochester Indymedia is now requiring editor approval for account creation.

We came to this decision after we had repeated spam posted to our website that caused difficulty with the website's functioning.  We will still have open publishing and keep our site as nonrestrictive and accessible as possible.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us.  As before, we will continue to be Rochester's grassroots news and education site.  Thank you for your continued support and remember, "Don't hate the media, be the media!"

Editorial Meeting Times / Locations

The Rochester Independent Media Center (R-IMC) is no longer meeting regularly.
We will set up meetings by necessity and appointment. Please contact us at rochesterindymedia@rocus.org.
Our home is still the Flying Squirrel Community Space at 285 Clarissa St. Occasionally, we hold meetings at RCTV located at 21 Gorham Street.
