Methodology

Operating principles

01

Server-side by design

Feeds are fetched by scheduled or due server-side PHP work, normalized, and written to local JSON. Reader browsers never query source APIs.

02

Evidence before position

Primary records and official files carry more weight than interpretation. Uncertainty is visible rather than flattened.

03

Minimize before publication

The project targets systems, institutions, vendors, and public claims—not private bystanders.

Read the full methodology

ARCHITECTURE

The reader never touches the external source.

A scheduled or due refresh requests data on the server, normalizes it, and publishes a local snapshot. That intentional friction protects privacy and creates an inspectable chain of custody.
